We all know that Golovkin was too afraid to fight an undefeated Ward at 168.
But what if the circumstances were different next time around?
Let's say he loses to Kovalev and feels that he doesn't belong at 175, so he moves back down. Let's say he starts negotiations with GGG again. Not only will he be coming off a loss, but he'll also be going down in weight. That's a double negative for him, while GGG's only negative would be to move up 8 measly lbs.
Would Golovkin take the fight then, under those circumstances considering Ward would be at a handicap? What do you think?
