    Ok, if you're gonna go there again...

    1) When asked in interviews, GGG said he would move down to fight Mayweather at 154, where Mayweather is a world champion title holder. I do not believe Golovkin or his people ever even actively sought this fight, but they would have be dumb to say no outright (and if that was the case you would likely be on here saying Golovkin ducked Mayweather).

    2) Cotto is the lineal MW champion. GGG is the MW #1 contender.

    3) When is the last time Canelo actually fought within the 154 lbs limit? What are his recent fight night weights? Oh, yeah...he's also about to fight for the lineal MW title. Big mean GGG just won't leave these other guys fighting at MIDDLEWEIGHT alone.

    Convenience is a funny card to play when the fighter you're backing says he could move up and beat a Klitschko, then turns around and says fighters like Stevenson and Kovalev do nothing for him.

    Froch and Chavez are something ward is not. A big money draw.

    Paul smith is a bigger draw than ward of we're being honest, his a bigger ticket seller and does better numbers on TV , ward brought his numbers down

    Yes, except when he has a chance at relatively easy fights for HUGE money and no unification fights on the table at the moment. It's really not that complicated of a concept.

    GGG wanted an easy fight and more money at 168. that's why he called Chavez and Froch. that's right, your hero best win is seen as an easy fight by GGG. fighting Ward would be risky and won't make sense financially. i don't see Ward fighting Kovalev or Stevenson at 175, i see him fight Smith. Got it? Yeas, he may be ducking Ward, but i don't really give a cra.p about GGG, my concern is why is Ward ducking Kovalev and Stevenson? He already had his tune-up, it's time to go to war !!!

    First off I clearly say Golovkin doesn't want the fight with Ward, so I don't know why your picking up on the fact I mentioned he still has a fight at middleweight that matters, yet you ignore that important fact, don't throw me in with the other Golovkin nuthuggers.

    Also you can't really compare Froch and Chavez Jr to Ward. One Ward is a much harder opponent to beat with a style that doesn't favour Golovkin as much as Froch and Chavez Jr and also and most importantly the money Golvkin would receive to face Ward would be much less than Froch and Chavez Jr. Money matters in this regard.

    But look PIMPLE Floyd claims to be a world champ at 154 GGG is prepared to drop to 154 6 pounds below his legitimate fighting weight so how can he have a 20 lb advantage? Unless he has lots of bags of saline drip etc like someone else we know did:think:patsch
    You say I have no credibility?? Youre the one claims to live in Houston Tx yet cannot find Heights Blvd :nut:rofl

    You're full of **** as usual Ward wouldn't have 20-25 pounds on GGG go to bed old man. And like I said earlier would have no problems about GGG having close to 20 pounds on PBF but have a problem with Ward even though that wouldn't be the case.

    Come on man he was clearly joking when he said he could beat Wlad. Ward is 6'0 you're a fool if you took that serious. However, what is serious is that GGG is clearly ducking Ward and he and his fans are absolutely terrified at the possibility of a fight with him. Lastly Ward has already spoken to Kovalev about a possible fight at 175 next year and I unlike GGG fans have no problems with Ward trying to fight him there.

    You're a troll who's out of your depth in the debate. Ward has beaten Froch and JCC Jr is a non factor a fight with Ward does more for GGG's career than a fight with either of them. The only reason why you GGG fans were so gung ho on seeing those fights along with Canelo and Cotto is because you think GGG can beat him. If you fools thought Ward was easy work you'd bee screaming at the top of your lungs for him to take that fight.:deal You're not fooling anyone here.:hi:

    Ward UD Froch and is 1-0 against Froch
    JCC Jr is a joke and quit against Fonfara
    Ward on BET made more money than GGG has ever made for a fight that night despite it only doing 300K in views.
    Ward #2 P4P fighter in the world linear at 168 and by far the best opponent GGG will have ever faced

    Because he's never made 154 and would drain himself at that weight he would then gain a **** load of weight after the weigh in. But I figured you knew this grandpa with your so called 50 years of watching the sport.:lol::rofl
