Why do some forget that GGG accepted the Ward fight in 2013?

    So what is your solution?

        Listen to the context, look at his expression.
        It's not filled with fear, it's filled with disgust.

        As I have previously stated, I doubt either of us are fluent in Russian or Korean..
        But if they have similar expression to Danish, it means something very different.
        Saying "Han er for meget for mig" is almost a literal translation of "Andre Ward is too much for me". It however means something very different in Danish. It means that he is full of it.

        If we do a Google Translate, yes yes, I know.
        From Danish to Russian to English.

        Han er for meget - Он слишком много - He is too much.

        Only an idiot would misinterpret what he said. When in context, his expression, and what he later said, and given that he had almost no knowledge of English, as he used German when he was training in Germany.

        It is almost the same in German. "Er ist zu viel" is translated into "it is too much".
        'andre ward is too much for me'

            You really need to work on your English skills my friend, certainly before you try and claim intellectual superiority on here and attempt to talk down to people...all the while you demonstrate the very errors that you are trying to ridicule someone else for, and you point out those errors in others' lingo without the slightest realization that you are guilty of the same mistakes.
            "no, andre ward is too much for me"

You think that meant his next opponent was 'too much' for him too?

              Listen to the whole video and what comes across to me is more that he's saying the same as many fighters say when asked a question about a possiblre future matchup right before a fight 'I ain't thinking about Ward right now, I'm thinking about the opponent I got in front of me'. It's just his English is so bad that he doesn't experess himself properly. You never heard a non English speaker express something badly before now, or express yourself badly in a language you ain't very good at?

              Funny that dudes on here actually mock Golovkin's poor command of the English language on here on the regular, but yet on this one occasion are insistent that there couldn't possibly have been any misunderstanding or miscommunication. Dude actually talks in rehearsed soundbites and is usually just lost when he ain't answering a question that's in the script.

              That said I will acknowledge he didn't look particularly pleased to be asked about Ward either.
              andre ward is too much for me but retiring geale, vanes, the other guy arent.

                Watch the full video, man. You know what I'm saying makes sense you just don't like letting go of your narrative.



                1:33 Mark. The question ain't 100% clear but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Andre yet he gives a very similar sort of answer. And what do you think he means by 'not today' when asked about Ward? You reckon he thought the questioner was asking whether he'd fight Ward that evening?

                Golovkin's just saying in his broken English sorta way exactly what we hear other fighters say all the time 'I ain't looking past my next fight'.

                In fact the more telling comment is what follows 'Andre Ward is Andre Ward, me is me...' now what does your genius semantic brain make of that bit of garbledness?

                I'm figuring he's saying just that they're both going their own way and getting on with their seperate careers.

                  It's clear that you are not dis*****g what I said.
                  You do know that English is literally his fourth language, right?
                  You do understand this?
