      Golovkin isn't a massive draw like you ******s think.
      No kidding....these asswads act like because golovkin is riding on canelo's popularity that he himself is a draw LMAO....dumb people

        First, the same sources disclosed the Ward fights. Second, and there are two ppv tries by Golovkin. Loefller says first did 150k second 175. Neither was with a p4p fighter that was a hotlet contested rematch.

        GGG v Kov sells out Vegas. Hell, ggg sales out everywhere he goes.

        Ward had to give away tickets in Oakland.

        No one likes Ward, he's a fake out of the ring and a cheat inside.
        He's a fake out of the ring? Please provide proof other than your opinion.

        A cheat inside? Yet he's never been DQ'd...odd huh?

        How about your boyfriend hitting a guy while he was down? Grounds for DQ as far as I know. He's a cheat too then.

          It involved two top 5 pound for pounders, and does atrociously from both the gate and in PPV numbers.

          Then next month a 41 year old will come out of retirement to face an 0-0 novice "boxer" and it'll literally do like 20 times the revenue. Hell that's a conservative estimate, too. It'll probably do more than that
          And then same people that hate ward will be b1tching about that too

            How does this affect Ward? Didn't Kovalev receive the short end of the stick with revenues for this bout? Hearn is begging for a Ward fight. Ward has been advocating his love for the UK as of late. And he got a crowd in the U.K. At a gym...

            I can see him fighting in UK soil. A win over Bellew or Joshua elevates Ward as another All American all time great. Fighting overseas for any of these bouts is legendary given the times

              Just shows that Ward is irrelevant and has no fans and Roc Nation are the worst promoter in boxing. Boxing fans arent interested in the wrestling, headbutting diva who can only win fights by either corruption or cheating/lowblows. Had he fought Kovalev on neutral ground in the first fight, he would already be irrelevant and probably retired because he lost clearly, in the 2nd fight he would have been DQed. After that last performance he will sell even less tickets. Everyone who claims to be a fan of Ward is just pitiful.

                You are the one who has to change his user name every 6 months after being humiliated and exposed - one of your favourite words there, Paulie - by real posters like me for the misinformation and outright lies you post in GGG threads.

                I've had the same user name, and no alts, for the last 6 years here. When I have to resort to changing it to try and hide from anybody or anything, the way you do, then you can talk about owning me

                  Ward won't fight in the UK, or anywhere outside the US. He turned down several offers to come here and rematch Froch, for what would have been career high paydays.

                  Against top class opponents, Ward needs officials who will allow him to foul whenever he likes, and favour him on the score cards if it goes the distance. to fight.

                  And, for your information, he has about as much chance of beating AJ, even in Oakland, as I would have. Here in the UK, or on neutral turf with a kosher ref, Bellew would also beat Ward easily.

                    Or maybe they just don't DKSAB and are lousy at promoting boxers and boxing shows?

                      You think I changed my username because of anything other than because I wanted to? You do know changing a username does nothing to hide who you were? All the old posts are still linked and you can see the username changes on peoples profiles. You probably didn't because you're so ****ing ******.

                      I own you Golovtards and the Pac turds on the regular with cold hard facts. Having little digs at me like you did in this thread shows me I hurt your little feelings. I love it.
