If Ward had a few more rounds he would of TKO'd Kov. Kovalov was already falling through the ropes and needed them to hold him. Ward would UD or win by TKO against GGG. He could put ALL his weight on GGG throughout the fight and getting him BEYOND tired. I would pull out my ENTIRE 401K plan if GGG fought Ward...Unless it was a weight drain. And bet it ALL on Ward. Wouldn't even take a round. Just to WIN. And I would DOUBLE it.Comment

This is ****** so Oscar gave GGG a 15m offer that ****** Loeffler refused to accept and rolled the dice by letting the Jacobs ppvs come out before taking the deal. Jacobs fight bombed now Oscar is saying that offer is off the table. I'm giving you a new offer that reflects your draw as a ppv fighter and it will be less. If Loeffler again turns down the offer that is his fault. GGG is demanding more money then he clearly is worth. His leverage only drops more if he double downs his first mistake and doesn't take the best offer now because Chavez is going to do amazing ppvs and blow GGG/Jacobs out the water. The offer today will be better then day the Chavez numbers come out.
K2 refusing to drop weight last year killed the fight. And now they pricing themselves out. They have no one to blame if the fight doesn't happen. Golden Boy ain't running a charity where they should just overpay and give in to the B side demands when he barely does 100k buys in the biggest fight of his career.Comment

Ward's been a very calculated guy throughout his career. Even though Hunter said he'd do it. I doubt Ward would go down to 168 for GGG if he physically couldn't do it without sacrificing too much of himself. He looked a division smaller than Kovalev in the ring when they fought. But I think that's because Kovalev is a huge light heavyweight. Because of the 25lb difference between the division limits, I'm not gonna say Kovalev is a cruiserweight. But I think he's quite a bit naturally bigger than most guys capable of getting down to 175lbs. So he's not a good measuring stick as to whether Ward is a natural super middleweight or light heavyweight at thus point in his career.
And all that talk about GGg KO'ing Kovalov in sparring is BS. Kovalov would put GGG in a COMA if his team didn't stop the fight. And If I was that COLD BLOODED dudes trainer... I would just play GGG laughing at him and saying he KHTFO every day. Bye-Bye GGGLast edited by Shadoww702; 04-01-2017, 07:36 PM.Comment

Not really. GGG was willing to fight Froch and Chavez Jr at 168, but not Ward. Guys are willing to step outside of their comfort zone if the price is right. If Chavez Jr beats Canelo and say he won't fight below 175 again. I'm sure GGG would be willing to go to 175 for Jr. Froch is hinting at a comeback at 175. Sure GGG would do that too. But I guarantee you he wants no part of Ward or Kovalev at the same weight.Comment

I've always suspected that GGG's style won't translate well against bigger guys. When GGG can't physically impose himself on a guy, he gets beatable in a hurry.Comment

Saying ANYONE from 154-168 but NEVER doing it is a DUCK also??? Don't you agree??? Unless your two faced??? You talk out of both sides of your mouth???Comment

In case you can't READ or won't with GGG balls in your mouth....IT SAYS on ESPN!!!!
"The bid amount is split between the fighters, generally a 55-45 split in the case of a WBC title fight between a titleholder and interim titlist."Comment
