    ward would need to beat kovalev convincingly, and golovkin would need to knock canelo out. i think the fight would do very well.

      that's just me reading between the lines when he says that he will only focus on kovalev. ppv or nothing. wave a 2 million dollar tune up in fornt of him and he might bite, but hbo knows that won't pay the bills down the road.


      i'm actually starting to think the golvokin fight happens in a year and a half or so. kovalev was unkown that fight lost money. golovkin is a bigger star than ward is. much more casual / crossover fanbase. ward - golovkin may sell half a million ppv, and it's certainly less of a risk to fight what looks like an aging middleweight than it is to fight a LHW of equal ability and in his prime
      Little G will get decapitated if he takes the Ward fight.

        no he won't. styles make fights.

        miranda?

        these are former middleweights, mind you. did ward decapitate them?

                it means theres no basis on what wards shown so far in his career, that he would knock out golovkin, a guy whos never been down in his career. Just means your talking ****e basically.

                  So by your definition, Joshua will knock out Klit in 4 rounds then?

                    That's what I'm saying boss. Kovalev won the first fight in probably 100% of non-American eyes. No way they'll let him win the second.

                      unless you mean he knows he will never get a decision over Ward no matter what he does...
