NO! Team g string made it clear that a Ward/g string fight could only happen at 164. This after accepting 168 for both Chavez Jr and Froch. Clear duck on team g strings part. They knew Ward would be hard pressed to make 168 and couldn't make 164. They could act like they wanted the fight but not actually have to fight Ward.

Ward moved up a weight class to fight the #1 rated Lightheavyweight in the killer Kovalev and g string drug the number 3 or 4 rated welterweight up not one but two weight classes for a fight so who's trying to fight good competition and who isn't?

they knew ward would never fight at 164 just like ward knew ggg would never accept 50-50 while he was canelos mandatory. it was just a bunch of posturing and publicity. only difference is you believe wards side because you like ward and dont like ggg. when both guys weren't posturing ggg wanted to fight ward and ward said no.

brook was the #1 welterweight. ggg's trying to fight everyone in his division while ward is not. hes avoiding a rematch with kovalev and refuses to fight stevenson so the answer clearly is ggg is trying to fight better competition.

You gg fans dont think logically lol. Like the poster above me mentioned, ward went straight for the big dog in Kovalev which is equivalent to fighting two GGGs at the same time..

GG needs to face somebody with a pulse first. He dont deserve a fight with Ward right now.

**boliodogs** · 02-20-2017, 08:45 PM

I don't think so. If he would fight a bad ass like Kovalev then he would fight a smaller bad ass like GGG. I think it was becoming difficult for him to make the 168 pound weight limit.

Ward beat GGG at 168.
