    Who cares. Ward has moved on to bigger and more credible opponents while the other moved on fighting welterweights. Regardless who ducked who, at the end of day.

    Kovalev > GGG

    Why anyone would bit(h about Ward choosing to move on and step up to a bigger and more credible opponent is beyond me

      You should ask all the demographic that bring Ward's name up every time GGG obliterates someone.

      It's ironic because Ward ducked him. Fact.


      Also,

      GGG stopped Kovalev before. this is also a fact.

        This is absolutely idiotic. Ward didn't duck him and dropping an out of shape Kovalev while sparring is not equal to 'stopping' him.

          you still never answered the OP question. go back reread come back and answer the question....


          Why didn't Ward take the fight with GGG when he had no fights lined up?

              So then ward should have just accepted a more than fair offer. He had no problem when Dawson did it.

                It boggles the mind how some people can't see through team GGG's bs.

                "Anyone from 154 to 168"
                *sends out offers to super middleweights at 164 and to welterweights at 160*

                It's really "Anyone from 160-164".

                    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?
                    How is an American gold medalist ever b-side to a Ukrainian silver medalist???
