    Floyd has made some of the same smart financial decisions in the past when choosing fighters and he was hailed and commended for it. Now GGG makes a smart financial move and is sh!t on.

    when was he hailed or commended for it LOL, he's been called a cherry picker even though those smart financial moves were FAR better opposition than the pathetic lemieux.

    I give up, I mean, I wont even be cheering for GGG on his next fight. Ellerbe is on my ignore list now. The guy makes absolutely no sense what so ever.

    I mean, the only conclusion is that he is Ward. And since Ward is on my "boxing ignore list" (who would watch his fight), I thought I should do the same on this forum.

    Click on the guy's name, go on his page, click again on his name, then you have the option.

    Oh my gosh, hallelujah! I'm blocking every Ward lover/GGG hater that I find. This forum will be filled with nothing but love by the time I'm through blocking.:happy

    Ward can't understand that he is not relevant anymore. Golovkin has much better choices. Buy, Andre. Your train has left the station. Work hard to earn the GGG fight in 2017. Maybe you will get 30%.

    50-50 for a year from now at 168?

    GGG's team has no incentive to sign on for that. Why lock himself into a lower rate if he's going to be more popular in 6 months than he is now? It's a shrewd offer from Ward because Andre would be getting paid more thanks to the work GGG's put into building his brand in the meantime, so I'll give him that.

    It's like going dutch for dinner, watching your friends order a sandwich, and then you order 3 lobster tails. Ward's ordering lobsters on GGG's tab, and his fans are getting mad at GGG for bailing on the check.

    So who's GGG going to face in 2016 if Canelo/Cotto avoid him, and BJS beats Andy?

    For what is available currently at middleweight it really isn't.

    He can go for Jacobs vs Quillin winner if Jacobs wins, Chavez Jr might be a possibility, Lee will most likely outpoint BJS, he can always fight Lara, and I'm sure more possibilities will arise in the upcoming months with people wanting to move up or down for him once he scores nice PPV numbers vs Lemieux. Ward on the other hand is pretty much stuck with GGG as long as he doesn't take on Kovalev (and he won't).
