Comments Thread For: Sergey Kovalev vs. Juergen Braehmer is Ordered By The WBA

[Metho_4u]

Don't even know why I reply to you, but which fighters at 168 are ready to fight GGG within 8 weeks?

It's not about 8 weeks, it's about the fact that every single time he's fighting some bum, the only excuse is "no one else will fight him" which is complete bs. Even many of the guys fans are turning on him for this fight with brook. He flat out has avoided Lara, not because he can't win, but because he will look ordinary even in winning. Meanwhile, lomachenko in his SEVENTH (7th) pro fight has just won in a second weight class, except in his case, he's got REAL A level guys ducking him.

On a side note, you don't think some C or D level guy @168 could be ready in 8 weeks? He only fights low level guys as it is...we all know his game. Give me a friggen break!!

That full-time troll isn't even worth arguing with. He'll never admit to one single thing that doesn't praise ggg.
The fact that team ggg made a big deal about 168, then went with a welter says it all. Lol @ ggg fans asking you to provide a list of SMW who are prepared to go. The arguments get more desperate with every passing week.

Plenty of intelligent and honest ggg fans have admitted that this is not his finest hour. And that's OK. Every fighter goes through low points. Fans who can't accept it are the ones who should be ashamed.

Anyhow, back on point. Hope this Kovalev situation gets cleared up. Awful that they'd drop this on him now of all times.

This will be a good next fight for Kov win or lose against Ward.

Brand is a tune up. Nothing more, nothing less. As far as I know the venues for Kov are Vegas and NY. That's not Oakland. Ward may be a prima donna, but he has still gone after the most dangerous fight in boxing and he's done so after so many said he wouldn't. At the end of the day it doesn't matter where you fight, only 2 guys get in the ring with the gloves on. So if you're calling him a prima donna, that's fine. But give the man respect for the challenge he has accepted ahead of him. Brand at home is no more important than Kovs fight in Russia. They're tune ups. No more, no less.

Read a bit before pontificating. I didn't use the word prima donna , I mentioned to Redd that ward does a great job of DISAPPEARING. Fighting in a half empty arena in Oakland is HIDING. So how many tuneups in total does he need, did he have a tune up before Froch?

[mapleleaf27]

Ward already said he wants Kovalev in Vegas, not Oakland. Even Duva says Andre wants this fight so it's unusual how many seem to have their fingers crossed that this doesn't happen. Doubting after everything that's happened so far is weird enough, but why are people so hopeful that this fight doesn't go though?
It's kinda telling.

Anyhow, all this makes the build up more exciting. Can't wait!!

Don't get me wrong would love to see the fight , but the fight should have happened already, Brook is moving up 13 lbs where are all his tuneups at 160??? Please answer that if you are replying... If and when Ward-Kov actually fight there will be some great discussion before and after the affair but for now don't be coming all over S.O.G. for nothing. The man has not done anything impressive in 5 years??? Tuneups??? wtf Tuneups?? Does he think he is working at pep boys??? Its great to hear what KDuva says, but if we actually saw 1/2 of all the fights fighters "want" this would be the most watched sport in the world ,

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realise a ring in Oakland was any different than a ring anywhere else. Please explain that difference to me, because the way I see it is its still only two guys fighting no matter where the venue is. As far as Froch and a tune up....Maybe, just maybe it is because he had been fighting in that weight class regularly and hadnt just moved up with less than a handful of fights in a new division. Either way Ward has signed to take on the divisions boogeyman and the fight will not be in Oakland. So really you're just going on about nothing.

I've always wanted to see Braemer against someone real. I wouldn;t mind this, I think Braemer is underrated

Brook is being branded as shark bait in what is a controversial mismatch. Your basis for your argument is entirely ***ed. That's like saying that Khan didn't acclimate so why should Ward. Sorry, but you are terrible at debating.

Not debating, was just making some comments. Fortunately I do not have SOG's **** in my mouth so I can actually explain things a little clearer.

Can't articulate a point so you sit in the center of the room, throwing your toys and shytting your diaper.

If you want to discuss opinions, I'm cool with that. We don't have to agree at all. But, don't throw a fit just because you got caught on a bad comparison.
