Originally posted by kafkod View PostWrong, Ward sent that offer after he had just fought at 172, and hadn't fought at 168 in nearly 3 years.
The move up was because, unlike Lil g, Andre was up to challenging himself with a showdown vs Kovalev, even as a smallish Lt Heavy.
It's what the great ones do.

If you have a link, post it.
All I heard from Ward was 168, and 50/50.
Which is appropriate since Lil g said he could do 168 and since Ward was much more established professionally even without being A-side popular.
yeah and you think 50-50 is fair how? more popular guy only deserves 50-50? since when does that apply? only in this fight because you love ward and hate ggg. just pretend you don't hate them for a second. pretend its fighter a who is popular vs fighter b who is not. fighter b wants to fight for 50-50 what do you say?
also wards timing was suspect. ggg signs to fight lemiuex and is next scheduled to fight canelo but you expect him to take a ward fight...really?

For the record I don't have an issue with Golovkin declining the offer but I'm just interested in your attempts to needlessly exaggerate.

Originally posted by koolkc107 View PostThe catch-weight was due to the long lay-off and there was no decision made at the time of the offer to Golovkin for Ward to move up to 175 for good.

Originally posted by daggum View Postward moved up because he said it was very hard to make weight...is broner great too since he can't make 140?
But, say what you want about Boner, he has moved up and taken on some challenges.
And, unlike Lil g, there are elite names on his resume.

Originally posted by NaijaD View PostHe fought Rodriguez at 168 in November 2013 so did he send that offer to Golovkin in the latter part of 2016 while getting ready for Kovalev??

Originally posted by HeroBando View PostRight, and earlier the same scoundrel was saying Ward hadn't made 168 in years, Gggs 164 counter was unfair. No integrity
They also forget to mention that GGG never said he would only fight Ward at 164 and he never "demanded" 164 in any negotiations. All Golovkin said was that 50/50 money and weight would be fair, when asked about it by a reporter.

They're not elite, those don't get shut out by Devon Alexander or go life and death with welter Julio Diaz
