    this is a classic freedom / tunneybear htread, no idea how you'd think anybody would be fooled. you almos tlawys have hte second choice as the one you'd like to see picked to further your agenda.


    to answer your question, it's obviosly canleo and his people. he's th ebiggest draw in american boxing right now, and his people have kept him away from golovkin like the plague.


    i'd honestly give runner up to ward at this point. he's got a track record of threatening to retire, holding out on very good looking contracts and very good splits, complaining to the media, etc. he's not a likable guy right now.

    he's runner up for two reasons:
    1. unlike canelo, ward put in his dues and was clearly one of the best fighters in the world on the strenght of some very good wins

    2. he doesn't call every single shot, the way canelo and GBP do regarding the biggest fight in american boxing, golovkin - canelo. ward's not that kind of a draw. canelo can hold networks hostage better. ward's had them by the balls for severl multi million dollar tune ups, but canelo is getting on f#cking ppv against a shot welterweight who never had a chin or good defense to begin wiht.\



    FFS, khan almost died in there.

      Ward's a bit of a diva but he's always been on the outside looking in compared to the other big draw "A-side" fighters in that poll. If Jay Z wasn't so desperate to sign a recognisable name and throw money behind it, Ward would still be in the same position.

      He also gave back Smith his fined part of the purse after he came in well overweight. That will always make me respect the guy even if though I'm not a fan of his fighting style or fights.

      Cotto sort of deserves to be a bit diva-ish too since he was always the one getting screwed over by the other "A-side" fighters.

        Little G is the biggest diva in boxing.

        154-168! Not 154 doe. Not 155 doe. Not 168 doe. Only 160 doe. 158 for Rosado but not for Canelo doe.

        I'm not a businessman doe. But $15M is not a good offer doe.

                It's Ward followed by Canelo.

                With what's going on with the Golovkin situation, it's hard not to call Saul an absolute diva. He needs to just offer a correct split and get the biggest fight in America off the ground. They'll both earn huge money, but Canelo really doesn't fancy himself to beat Golovkin, so he's putting roadblocks in the way.

                Canelo will only feel safe to take the fight when Golovkin gets older and shows some serious wear and tear. And that's bull****.

                  No choice for GGG who has reportedly turned down a $15 mil offer. Only choices are 2 hispanic fighters and 2 black fighters.

                  come on bigdramshow, you can do better than this.
