    Ward is a light heavyweight, why does GGG need to move up to fight him? GGG is at his best at 160, walk around weight is about 170, he is three inches shorter than Ward. On that note, why won't Floyd fight GGG? Golovkin is only one or two inches taller and he offered to come down to 154. Crickets.
    Ggg is at his best at 35? Lol. Imagine HOF fans of whoever saying "he doesn't have to move up."

        How is $15m 10% of the purse? Show your maths.

            He is not a big middleweight. He is 5'10" and walks around at 170. I can see him at 168, but not 175. He offered to come down to 154 for Floyd but Floyd thinks he is too big, yet Ward isn't too big for GGG?

              This is a fight that can do one million PPV sales easy. At $75 a pop, that generates a minimum of $75M plus the gate. At best, Canelo's offer is 20%. Floyd tried this with Manny, offered him $40M to take the fight, which amounted to less than 10% of the take. GGG easily rates 40% for a fight with Canelo.

                    Floyd always wanted to make the fight. Top Rank and Pac wanted 50% PPV. Aside from that Pac never agreed to random blood testing.

                    So to recap, I don't see headlines that Lil'G is a PPV success like Pac or has refused random blood testing.

                      yea.....thats why he changed his demands and only wanted to give pac a 40 million flat fee. they called his bluff and he ran(he did the same thing to winky earlier so we know how he operates). also when he changed the purse split from 50-50 to a 40 million flat fee both of them had done 1.25 million ppv buys in their last fights so how was 50-50 not fair? we found out the drug testing was never the issue when he changed his demands.
