Golovkin was willing to fight Chavez Jr and Froch at 168

[papichulosweg]

Ehhhhh Ward didn't want that pressure from triple L ward would of got ko first round in 35 seconds by triple L easy work for triple L.

Ward would go to 160 for Mayweather but no less than 168 for GGG. Damn, this isn't just yesterday's news. It's the day before yesterday's news. It's been talked to death for years. Your hero is retired. He doesn't want to fight anymore. GGG is still champ and just made a fortune and may soon make another fortune. He is never going to fight Ward and Ward no longer wants to fight anybody. Let it go. Quit beating a dead horse. Move on. Forget about it. Quit starting threads attacking GGG and building up Andre Ward. Ward is already respected as a great fighter. Just be happy for him and shut up. Please.

You're ****ing pathetic Larry. Shut up already.

But wanted 164 for Ward????

Golovkin has stated repeatedly that he likes to fight guys that will meet him in the center of the ring and exchange punches. He doesn't like to chase his opponents. He doesn't like having to figure someone out and change gameplans if need be. He likes to stand in the middle of the ring and exchange.

It doesn't take a genius to read between the lines and figure out that Golovkin didn't want to deal with Ward's style. That's why he said Ward was "too much" for him. Because Ward's style was on another level and he couldn't handle that level of expertise. It's completely different trying to deal with Canelo's boxing vs. Ward's boxing.

No .. he said that talking about Ward was too much for him. Different meaning altogether.

[Sp0rty Cr@ig]

He didnt want Ward period.

Why the fuk would he move up to fight a dangerous fight against a fighter with no following? Froch & Chavez are bigger fights & lower risk.

How come all logic goes out the window when discussing GGG opponents? Mikey wanted to fight Cotto at 154 or whatever. Why arent you giving him chit for not calling out Charlo at 154? Lmao

Every fighter on earth would move up to fight a big fight against an easy opponent. How come only GGG gets chit for it? Boxing is a BUSINESS
