The golovkin/ward paradox

[boliodogs]

still bitter abouıt #48 losing to Floyd huh? cute spin on boxing doe

You are still disrespecting Pacquiao by calling him #48 as if all he will ever be known for is losing to Mayweather. Recently Mayweather has been praising Pacquiao as a great fighter so why can't you show just a little class and do the same as your hero?

wrong.

164 lbs is a concession. Period.


Ward fought at 160 before. GGG never fought at 168. GGG never fought above 160. Ward fought lower than 164. what's the problem? WArd "NO CONCESSIONS"




you moron

Why offer to fight Ward at 164 but not the other guys at 168????

Dude is a rank coward and another HBO hype jobe.

GGG chose to fight Adama off TV than fight Sergio Mora on HBO

logically because other guys are bigger draws. froch, chavez jr etc. do u deny this?

"i'd go to 160 for mayweather" - ward




the fact is at the end of the day



GGG made a concession. the concession is at 164.


if he's not making concessions at all, it would be exactly like Ward.

160 or no fight.


you braindead morons.

Another paradox is the guy being ducked is hated, while fighters who duck him are loved.

It's not a bad thing if the hate translates to huge PPV numbers like in Mayweather's case because they want to see him lose. In GGG's case, the haters are so tiny in numbers but are the loudest and most likely just stream fights for free.

this is seriously a handicap mentality that i've noticed as well.


it's like OH DAMN! Canelo is making us mexicans look like **** riding ****s!



We can either admit to it or we can be like the blacks

"running and hugging in boxing is beautiful y'all!"

"we built the pyramids y'all!"

"Ducking is wonderful y'all!"

[Scipio2009]

just dont know why hes getting made out to be a hero for fighting in his most natural weight class, didnt he fight as a light heavy as an amateur too? Its hardly like hes fighting bigger men up there, more than holds his own physically

Andre Ward went and won the Olympic gold medal at a full-breakfast weight of 173/174lbs, fighting guys coming in at 179lbs; Ward's natural weight for the Olympics would've actually been 165lbs, were it not for he and Andre Dirrell being the two best fighters on Team USA.

People always ignore this fact but, after winning the 178.5lb gold medal, 7 of Ward's first ten pro fights were at 160lbs.

simple as that

Ward fights at 175 now and he is fighting the best 175 pound boxer. That is admirable. GGG fights at 160 and he is trying to fight Jacobs who is the best 160 pound boxer in the world so what is the difference? If GGG is ready, willing and able to fight the best 160 pound boxers that is all that should be asked of him. Only unreasonable GGG haters demand a 34 year old career middleweight fight the Ward-Kovalev winner to earn respect. As long as he continues to do a proper job as the true middleweight champion of the world he has my respect. He avoids nobody at 160 but Eubank, Saunders and Jacobs seem to be avoiding him. How is that his fault?

I have no issue with him staying at 160 but his team needs to stop bull****ting and make some concessions to make good fights happen

Who cares what people think, watch whoever you enjoy watching and don't tune in if they don't entertain you.

I wanna see GGG-Canelo and GGG-Jacobs

I also wanna see Ward-Kovalev and the winner vs Stevenson

While I'm not overly excited when Ward fights because his style, a bit like Floyds is not that entertaining and he doesn't bring any personality to the fight at all. But I respect Ward as a man because he seems like a good family man and not some ****** scum who throws money down strippers twats on the Internet.

A lot of the "new" Ward fans are just GGG haters in all honesty, they jumped from Floyd to Broner and Now to Ward... They hated PAC, they love the scumbag in Broner and now they hate GGG and Kovalev so they root for Ward... Half of them don't know sht about boxing anyhow... They just like acting like Floyd is breaking them off a piece of that coin when they rock those ugly TMT hats lol...

"Half of them don't know **** about boxing"
It goes both days man stop making it seem like someone is a victim in this situation. Also I don't know WHO "THEY" are but hopefully you can elaborate on that. So they rock tmt hats, don't know **** about boxing, and what else? Who are "THEY"
