Why Didn't Andre Ward Accept 164, 50/50 when he was the b-side?

      I could. But who cares really. He's not that interesting to me. Just another ggg towel boy on damage control

        Not cool man. I specifically steered this thread away from that direction.

          My guess would be cuz wasn't confident he could make that weight without being affected adversely. Similar to ggg not wanting to fight canelo at a cw.

            What is wards biggest selling ppv?

                andre willing to go to 160 to fight mayweather. but why not 164 for GGG when GGG is the bigger draw than Ward?
                Because he was the undefeated super 6 champion at 168. Why would he drop a division? Maybe with Mayweather he is going to get 10 million + PPV money with GGG he ain't getting anywhere near that. GGG should have jumped up...I have not seen too many champions drop a division & do better. Chris Byrd, Chad Dawson, RRJ. Actually it was pretty much the end for all 3 after they did that. The punches come in a lot faster especially in Byrd & RJJ cases as they dropped 2 divisions. Byrd was done & RJJ was never the same fighter after fighting Ruiz then dropping back down.

                  Canelo fought one pound over a jr middleweight limit lol, Golovkin came in one pound over middleweight limit against Amar Amari and Malick Dziarra

                      Because:
                      a) There was no actual offer at 164. Fight negotiations fell apart at 168 due to timing/tuneups request.
                      b) Ward most likely couldn't make 164. At the very least, not for Golovkin, and not coming off a ~2 year layoff.
