    Golovkin will beat the hell out of Ward and ko him. Ward is made for Golovkin. he better run, run long and hard, away from Golovkin.

    Golovkin is definitely the real deal. To beat GGG, Ward better better ready to move all night and smother Triple G when needed. I think it would be a good fight. You know Ward will have a gameplan even if it is punch, hold and headbutt. Ward is above all else a winner, if he has to play spoiler he will. Very similar to Calzaghe in that regard.

    ever heard of Bob Fitzsimmons?

    Jimmy Wilde?

    Ted "Kid" Lewis?

    you've heard of Lennox Lewis surely?

    loads more greats from the UK as well.

    Joe saying that Lacy couldn't punch for **** is an insult these days? :lol:

    plus, what has Lacy having half the fights as Joe got to do with power?

    don't be bitter and insecure, Scar.

    I'm afraid GGG's skin is going to be his downfall. Once he steps up he is going to be getting cut all the time. People are dumb to think that this little guy with paper skin can compete with Ward. GGG is to small to go up to 168. He would be better off dropping down to 154 where his paper
    skin wont be such a problem unless he fights Pacman

    Ward would be this guy with ease. I think Ward would win by KO or stop GGG on cuts.

    I think Ward wins as well. He just has too many ways to win.

    Ward knows his boxing. We can give him that. Right after the fight, he called Chavez Jr saying: "It's the fight the fans want". Calling a smaller guy while we've just been watching GGG performance. Ward could have call that smaller guy! An undefeated champ, for a change. Ward knows GGG almost never lost in more then 300 fights. Wards knows his boxing and will carefully and shamelessly duck GGG. He could have call GGG right after the fight, but he prefered calling Chavez Jr.

    GGG loses on points to Ward . Too much talent for GGG to overcome

    This may well become the new Mayweather v Pacquiao.

    I think HBO is trying to build a mega bout for late next year. I assume they will feed Chavez Jr to Ward and possibly a rematch with Froch.

    Golovkin will likely take on the winner of Barker v Geale, then maybe big up a Super Middleweight strap against Stieglitz or Bika.

    GGG is too small for Ward. GGG looks like he could fight at Light Middleweight.

    lol @ another Ward hating douche. GGG is a beast but NOONE in the history of 168 past or current is touching Ward at that weight class.
