    That's why you see these so called Ward fans usually talking about GGG most of the time, they are more GGG haters than actual fans of Ward.
    Thats the truth of it

        they only do it because ward is fighting him and if he beats him they'll brag about it, is not that hard to see. anyways some of them are already turning on him saying he has only a puncher's chance whereas before they were saying it was a 50-50 fight

            They're actually complaining about Ward fans always bringing up GGG, while simultaneously bringing up GGG in a thread about Ward/Kovalev.

            You can't make this shit up

              I keep on saying it, it is the best match that you can make in boxing right now. The best two guys in anybody's p4p list in their prime. There are no excuses if either man loses.

              This is a legit 50/50 fight

                Its what you are implying here that is most interesting to me rather than what you are outright saying.

                I do find that fans of boxers seem more respectful of their competition than fans of punchers are of their competition in particular when that competition is a boxer. Its like being a crafty boxer is some nefarious tactic or sleight of hand trick that isn't "real boxing" & everything they've accomplished is some house of cards that will be demolished in any given fight & deserves to be demolished since it is a nefarious tactic or sleight of hand trick. As a guy who's really not a big fan of either of these guys I've noticed this more than I may have in other fights where I was more invested in the outcome & perhaps somewhat to legit biased for or against one guy or the other.

                  Why do you say that? If Ward fans are converted Floyd fans as most of you say. This wouldn't hold true. Because Floyd fans used to trash Pacquiao and made memes over KO6.

                  I'm just making an observation of being respectful of the opponents which yiu don't see often in bug fights like this.

                    And on the other hand, fans such as the above are the complete opposite of what I'm giving credit to in this thread.

                      pacquiao-mayweather was a long rivalry, plus manny was KO'd and had lost before that too. kovalev was only brought to ward's equation this year and is unbeaten. 2 different situations imo
