    In fact, Bumlovkin has only fought TOMATO CANs.

    FACTS. Learn to live with them...

    Sorry but Taylor, Pavlik, Martinez and Cotto ALL have better resumes than the Triple Duck.

    Who was the last top fighter Bumlovkin beat?

    I love how Ward fanboys claim that GGG can just move up, fight Ward and then come back down but apprently Ward is incapable of doing the same even though he's younger.

    So are you then claiming that Ward should do that?

    When two fighters from different divisions cite the weight as a big issue, I tend to just prefer them facing the best opponents in their respective divisions and wait for them to share the same weight class. And if that never happens, then weight did indeed prove to be a big deal where ones' size would have been favored.

    If we get it, we get it. But saying one needs to move up or one needs to move down is just wrong in that whichever way you lean will show ones' favoritism.

    Mayweather had no problem going up to 154 then back down to 147. Neither did Pernell Whitaker. Of course, Bumlovkin isn't in their class so maybe it's not a fair comparison...

    Martin Murray and Daniel Geale were both top 5 and good wins.

    After that, very shallow. But those two wins are very good.

    Why won't Ward move up 2 pounds and fight Kovalev? GGG will be at 160 for at least another year.

    I believe that that is the short-medium-term plan.

    stop quoting yourself, I'd thought you'd be long gone by now after half of the forum ridiculed you in this thread

    oh, and option #1 is to unify, dominate MW as long as possible and move up only for big fights, if Hopkins could, than so can Golovkin, unless you apply different standards for whatever agenda suits you best

    The difference is Ward has already proven himself against elite fighters but GGG hasn't. I have no idea why this concept is so hard to grasp for some?

    Ward and Kovalev have already talked about fighting at 175 some time next year where have you been?
