So you like to qualify your challenges to suit your agenda, is that correct because all you did was mention moving UP for challenges yet when I bring up floyd and a move down you think that shouldn't happen

No. It's a serious question. De La Hoya, Cotto, and Canelo were all fights that were worth it for Floyd financially and legacy wise. Now when GGG turned down the Ward fight the reasons giver were Ward isn't a big draw (GGG isn't a big enough draw to fight Floyd) Ward hasn't made 168 in years, not sure he could make 168 again (GGG has never fought at 154) Ward didn't have a strap (GGG didn't have a strap at 154). Froch and Chavez Jr are worth it financially but not Ward (Cotto, Canelo, and Oscar was worth it financially but not GGG) Now if you accept those reasons for GGG not having to fight Ward you gotta accept them for Floyd not having to fight GGG. What's good for the goose...

Couldn't be less alike. Unlike Ward GGG had a lot of momentum, wasn't asking for 50/50 from the A sider, wasn't demanding a full weight concession. Instead, he was offering to drop a full division and challenge the guy that was lineal, unified, 2x Sww champ with a 3.5yr reign

The fight was never realistic. GGG has never made 154. The 154-168 was all a marketing ploy to get GGG known. The only times they had a chance to prove they weren't lying they said no (Ward) and sent Rodriguez a contract for 164 with a rehydration clause. It was all a marketing ploy

“I would love to [fight Gennady], his team and promotional company send me a contract to fight at 164lbs and next day they say I have to be 10lbs off. They go on HBO and say they’re big enough to fight anybody from 154 to 168, after I win this tournament I’m open if you want to fight me. My weight is 168lbs, come and get it....Don’t send me a contract saying I have to be 10lbs off or come down to a catch weight, I’m a super middleweight and you said you’d fight anyone from 154 to 168 but then you’re fighting guys at light middleweights. If you’re really as good as you say and your team really believes you’re that good then move up and fight me at 168 and stop sending me contracts that aren’t even worth looking at.”

Those were not the only times. They also signed to fight then A side Chavez at 168, and offered A side Froch 168 in the UK
