Carl, you are entitled to your opinion but you either have the iq of a boxer rather than a manager, or have a hidden agenda.
Go up 2 weight classes and miss a HUGE payday fighting conela, and instead fight for chump change against Ward.
Don't get me wrong - i'd love to see GG go up as that match up is almost as interesting as Conela. No doubt his advisors and managers are telling him to stay put though. Got to be realistic.

All these GGG haters out there love this stuff but how would they feel if GGG decided to play the Floyd Mayweather diva character and said what Floyd said, except for Ward?

Froch hyping up GGG saying they would fight, then retiring, then constantly challenging GGG to fight Ward from retirement is one of the most pathetic things. Especially now that Ward is at 175.
Used to like froch a lot but get some dignity.

First he started calling out Golovkin even though he never had any intention of fighting him (and no, I'm not saying he ducked him). Then he did a fckin nose job... And now he's acting like your typical low IQ NSB ******. .. WTF happened to that man? He's only been retired for 2 years but already acting like some B level Premier League celebrity/player.

Nah if GGG played dirty the way Floyd does, y'all would complain about it. So try to be consistent and stop with these double standards. GGG moving to 175 is two divisions. So Ward going to cruiserweight is two divisions from 168. But no one is calling for him to fight Usyk, so......
200-175 = 25 lbs!
Sht he's already went up to LHW!
200-168 = 32lbs!
That would be like a Jr. Welterweight say Crawford fighting Kovalov or Ward!
I can't believe you said that dumb SHT!!!!
Ohhh Usyk walks around like around 210ish and has been on RECORD saying he wants to fight "Usyk spoke of his desire to fight other cruiserweight titlists as well as fighting Anthony Joshua at heavyweight."

Don't know why Ward isn't a bigger attraction, but fact is he's not. He got 5m for the first Kovalev fight and seems to want same or more for a rematch. How much would he want to fight GGG ? Can't see it ever happening. GGG has two years left - time to go to 168 and try collect the belts there, but not much else. If Ward was a Mayweather type money fight then there would be enough to meet Ward's financial requirements and also enough to tempt GGG to go for it - but its not.

Froch already ducked GGG. And Ward also made an educated duck.GGG has fought the best that would fight him. Miguel Cotto ducked GGG. Sergio Martinez ducked GGG. Canelo ducked GGG. Andre Ward wanted a tuneup fight. Canelo Alvarez says he's not yet a middleweight. Miguel Cotto had zero interest. Floyd Mayweather Sr. says he's way too big for his son. Carl Froch is retiring. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is imploding. He'd be widely acclaimed as one of the world's great fighters, except it's kind of hard to judge him because he's never stood across the ring from another A-level opponent.
He'd get that with Ward. Or Alvarez. Or Cotto. Or one of any of a handful of fighters, none of whom seems too interested in getting into the ring with him.
And merrily, Gennady Golovkin just fights on, scoring brutal knockouts each time out and adding fans by the day. Ward talked a good game but he wanted nothing to do with GGG. Carl Froch turned down big money to fight GGG. While the Mayweather sycophants would undoubtedly say that Golovkin has never seen anyone like Mayweather, the reverse is also true: Mayweather has never faced an opponent as dangerous, and with as many tools, as Golovkin. So that fight will never happen even though GGG would fight at 154 for that fight. GGG would walk right through anything Mayweather threw and beat him down. Mayweather is 49-0 and still a marvel inside the ring, but his once-impregnable defense has been broken down by Maidana. He'd have great difficulty at 38 years old standing up to the punishing onslaught Golovkin would bring. Rest assured, though, that fight will never occur, and not just because of Mayweather's ties to Showtime and Golovkin's to HBO. Mayweather has one of boxing's most astute minds and he knows a Golovkin fight would be extraordinarily difficult for him. The two men are polar opposites of each other in many ways. Mayweather was a master defender, while Golovkin is a crushing puncher who may be the finest offensive machine in boxing since a prime Marvelous Marvin Hagler more than a quarter of a century ago.
