    I know GGG said 154-168 several years ago just like Ward said he would drop down to 154 for Mayweather. So that is a wash right there.

    But at the time, that was a more than fair offer. #1 160 vs #1 168. Meet in the middle. And 50/50 when GGG had higher ratings.


    Why did Andre tuck like a transgender?
    Ward is fighting Kovalev which is much better then GGG. At this point who cares about GGG. Kovalev is the more bigger and credible opponent.

    Kovalev > GGG

      the timeline of the negotiations doesnt' seem to be completely ironed out, but frmo what i gather the ward camp reached out to golovkin when he was signed to fight lemieux, and wanted to fight several times in the interim.


      if you listen to both camps it's obvious that the dont' want the fight. at least not now. you don't crap on a fight you actually want. you build it.

        this is not about canelo. it's like these people don't have a brain.

        what weight did he hold a belt at?

          this does not change the fact Ward ducked GGG. Who made the only sensible and fair offer. Period.

            that's right. Ward made the offer when GGG was already signed to fight Lemiuex. Obviously insincere.

            and that offer didn't outline any conditions. It could be for 80/20 in Jokeland.




            The fact remains, GGG's camp made a public offer that is more than fair at a time when Ward didn't have a fight scheduled. Ward became as quiet as a rat pissing on cotton. Fact.


            Period.

              If ggg and Ward fight, it will be at 175 or a catchweight of 170 or something like that

              Whose fault is it that Ward got fat and can't make the GGG fight he keeps chirping about?

                      lol these idiots can't seem to wrap their head around themselves being conned right out in the open.





                      Once Kovalev beats Ward unconscious, it will become all too clear why he ducked GGG.
