    just because a person can make weight doesnt mean he will do well at that weight. 3g would get tenderized by ward.

      Ward himself said he's not coming down to 168 so not sure why people keep taking about it. There was a lot of he said they said so unless you were directly involved in negotiations you can't say what happened for certain; regardless of what happened that was years ago, move on.

        Because now it's perfectly fine for fighters to jump 2 divisions.

A fight against Ramirez would be great too. Hopefully it doesn't take GGG too long to go up to 168 since he doesn't have much time left on the clock especially with his style of fighting, I hope he doesn't take the Canelo bait and wait too long for Canelo to fight him while aging and declining in the process, because that's exactly what Canelo wants. Leonard Hagler kinda stuff, ya kno?
          Loeffler mentioned Degale or Ramirez if they couldn't get any big names so it seems like a possibility.

            He has almost cleared out Middleweight - if he really wants to be 'great', he should move up. If he has the same or similar success SM, go to LH. Why not? It's not as if he's significantly smaller than Roy Jones Jr who achieved much more.

                When I beat Bernard Hopkins, and won the IBF
                The right was hurt, beat him with the left
                Y'all musta forgot! ....
                You remember the left hook that James Toney got
                Sucka move that I stole from a game****
                Y'all musta forgot! ....

                  How come ward fans are suddenly starting to move the goalposts? What's wrong with 168? I'd love to see GGG v Ward at 168.

                    He's on a mission to collect all his 160 belts.

                      Ward said he won't come down to 168.
