    GGG is a boxing superstar since his teens. There are very few you can say that about in today's boxing, Rigo perhaps. Ward faced many solid A grades, but never a true elite like GGG, so it's true.

    Why do you think Cotto fought a bum like Geale when he could simply beat GGG and make more money and reputation? Because he knows he can't. It's not all about the resume to judge a boxer's level if you understand what you're watching. He was always a true elite.

    He wasnt even a big name till a few years ago. It doesnt matter what a fighter did as an amateur, if it did you would be saying the same thing of Ward who is an Olympic gold medalist and more accomplished pro than Golovkin.

    I didn't say Ward is not good, he is. I said he didn't face anyone like GGG at the pro ranks. GGG didn't fight anyone like Ward either.

    Smith stood in front of him with his hands up, walking slowly forward into the jab. This was a glorified sparring session. A complete joke.

    GGG would destroy Ward

    The simple truth is that Ward has faced far more accomplished fighters as a pro. GGG is for more exciting, only a fool would argue otherwise. But Ward has done more in less fights.

    But GGG is no overhyped Lacy & Calzaghe will never be a Ward
    GGG will methodically beat down Ward till he quits Even in Oakland

    I would take that bet if the time comes. Ward is far more accurate than anyone 3G has faced, faster, most likely stronger and would be giving him angles and turning him all night. Golovkin is awesome, Ward in my opinion has to much talent though.

    Abraham maybe overrated but he's better then all fighters ggg beat. Froch is tailor made for Ward but guess what? Froch is way way way way way better then all fighters ggg beat.
