    Well GGG wants the Canelo/Cotto & Lee/Saunders winner before moving up to SMW. Their situations are similar except Golovkin has more reasons to stay in his division than Ward has for his.

    Golovkin haters seriously make 0 sense. It's almost to the point of delusion.

    So GGG is supposed to fight a guy who's been out for almost 2 years, who's moving up in weight, who's fight "tuneups" and expect to sell?

    Doesn't make sense in a financial standpoint I think.

    How do we know Ward can even beat Degale, Groves, Jack, Chudinov? Ward is still riding off victories that happened long ago :patsch

    Golovkin is headlining in his PPV debut for his next fight while Ward is going to be on an UNDERCARD for his next fight.

    That says it all.

    My question is this half these guys say belts are meaningless, if that's the case why does GGG need to wait to fight Ward?

    You can say that, but Golovkin ain't moving up till he has their belt. If they have to be eventually stripped, so be it.

    Not sure what your point is here, but belts are extremely important to GGG- in fact, they may be THE most important.

    Just a bit ironic that the same fans who say titles don't matter make excuses for GGG not fighting Ward because of the title.
