Would/should ward get criticised for fighting golovkin?

[Robbie Barrett]

he beats ward at 168, not at light heavyweight

The fight was offered at 168. Golovkin wanted 164. He obviously didn't have the confidence you do.

No need. Wanting 164 proves he didn't want the fight no matter how Lil Gina's try and twist things.

You've got Golovkin fans that say Golovkin beats Ward and say he's too big at the same time. How's he too big if Golovkin beats him?

"I can't make 168lbs making 175lbs isn't easy too"

"I can't make 168lbs making 175lbs isn't easy too"

Said a year after fully committing to 175 and having 2 fights there

His fight with Dawson he weighed 176 on fight night, 8lbs over his division. Golovkin comes in at 171, 11lbs over his.

Brook is the best underdog golovkin has ever faced. That's the dumbest **** I ever heard to justify a mismatch.

then you bring up froch, Froch never fought golovkin so why would anybody call him a cherry picker? ****** analogy

you are a clown, that would suck Golovkin's **** if he ask you nicely.

fanboy won't call a spade a spade.

This is why arguing with you idiots is both easy and frustrating at the same time. You posted 3 times. The only FACT you used is that 'He said he's too small'. Everything else you said is conjecture and lame insults. You ignored all the facts I posted as if they didn't happen. It's both sad, laughable, and frustrating. I can't do much if your response is to pretend things didn't happen.

It's like that old saying - never argue with a fool. They'll bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Andre Ward

''My last two opponents outweighed me by about 8-10lbs on fight night. Edwin Rodriguez was over 190.. like 192, 193. Paul Smith was 192, 193''

So how much did Ward's weigh for those two fights if Rodriguez who he fought in November 2013 and Smith weighed 192-193 and he says they outweighed him by 8-10lb?

Paul Smith tried to negotiate a catchweight of 170 but Ward and his team wouldn't have any of it.

Andre Ward

''I'm disappointed with Paul," he told Sky Sports News HQ. "I heard last night that as of yesterday morning he was eight pounds over. You've got to realize in negotiations, my team said 172 and he fought to have it at 170. And he comes in four pounds overweight. It's very unprofessional.''

Andre Ward

''Problem is Floyd doesn't get tired and we've seen Canelo fade in fights before.. Having to take off that extra two pounds is.. people think it's just two pounds, but when you already struggling to make 154, that extra two pounds is a lot. He [Canelo] is going to put on a lot of weight but he's not going to be able to put on the right kind of weight in just 24 hours. So he's gonna feel the fact that he's, you know, stripped his body, cutting his muscles to get to 152.''


Ward is now saying it's not easy for him to make 175 despite him only having moved up to that weight just six months ago.

2007 Andre Ward interview

'GM: How long do feel you will fight at this weight?

AW: I’m not having any trouble with it. I have to be conscious of what I am eating. I mean I always have been. The last week we have to watch carefully. Nothing too strenuous. I feel I won’t be here too long. I walk around 180. I can get to 185 if I stopped training but I rarely do. I’m walking around 180; to some people they say ‘Oh you should fight at 160.’ But I’m not going to kill myself to make 160. If you know how to fight, if you know how to box, a guy can be bigger than you and it’s not a problem. I’ve been doing this long enough to where I know how to offset that.

'GM: If you had a choice between a long title run at one weight class or being a multi-division champion who has a couple fights, picks up a belt and moves on to the next weight class, what would you choose?

AW: That’s hard to say. Time will tell but if I had to say I’d say move up in weight. I kind of like that scenario. I kind of like winning a few times and then moving up and meeting a new challenge. I think it’s healthy for the body as you get older and I think it helps. I look at what Bernard did it’s unbelievable but how much damage did he do trying to make that weight year after year after year? Then he goes up to 175 and looks like Superman physically and even performance wise because his body was craving ‘Just feed me. Just let me fill out. Let me grow.’ And he finally did and I think it showed. I don’t want to stay at one weight class forever when I know deep down I should move up
