Ward running to LHW to get away from GGG

It is the timing of Ward's offer which made it wrong. He made the offer right after the Lemieux PPV was annonunced and it was clear that Golovkin will be booked for a long time. Ward made the offer knowing that it couldn't be accepted.

Since when is Canelo a smaller guy ? He weighs at or above Golovkin's weight in the ring. He walks heavier than Golovkin. He is younger, so he is able to comfortably cut more weight than Golovkin, but he is no smaller in the ring. Golovkin is not a big MW.

 

K2 is owned by Klitchko's. They suck all the revenue and don't want to invest in other fighters.

 

People don't understand there's a time and place for moving up, for GGG it's not the time. Ward wouldn't have moved up either if he had the same options at 168.

True. It's a well known fact that the Klitschos thru K2 Nickle and Dime all the fighters who they promote as well as all of their opponents.
Why any fighter would remain loyal to K2 is beyond crazy.

 

Besides CST, nobody has backed Usyk as much as me. I'm Grigory Drozd's biggest fan and have been calling him the best Cruiser with ages. That's just two examples.

 

Booked for a long time? It's one fight. And one he is sure to win. Is GGG guaranteed the winner of Canelo vs Cotto? If not, GGG will likely be looking for another opponent after Lemieux.

Abel Sanchez has said multiple times, they are not ready for Ward, or Ward doesn't bring enough to the table, blah, blah, blah.

The truth is the money train would stop if he were to get in there with Ward. Ward would out muscle GGG on the inside and jab him to death from the outside. Ward is a bigger man and with his level of skill he would have a clear advantage.

Yes, Canelo is smaller. Has he ever fought anyone allowed to come in at the MW limit? He started at WW. Admittedly, he is a big LMW. But, guys like Jacobs, Quillin, and Lee, etc. are clearly bigger men than him.

 

Ward is running from nobody, lease of all GGG.

Ward is one of the most talented boxer right now. no way his afraid of little GGG. :bbb

 

It's funny, people were saying Abraham, Kessler an froch were going to do the same thing in the super 6. Ward will win 80% of the rounds against little g. He is too smart and too strong for him.

 

He is on another thread calling Vitaly a coward in and out of the ring but he praises Maywether, Ward, Hopkins in and out of the ring. So yeah: I would say your claim is spot on.

 

They payed Golovkin 1.5 million for his last fight and have Oleksander Usyk signed long term and no doubt for his entire career. K2 pays opponents accordingly and certainly does not treat them any worse than DKP, GBP or TR.

 

Oh what the ****. I am a huge Golovkin fan but please stop making us all look like lunatics. Ward is a great fighter and hasn't been in a fight at 168 in how long? Everyone was commenting how his last fight was just shy of the LHW limit and that he should move up. And now he is. Good it was the right choice for him. He's not ducking anyone. To fight a fighter of Golovkins caliber you had better be at your best and if he feels that that isn't possible at 168 then he made the right choice. The same would go for Golovkin or any other boxer for that matter. Golovkin would want to be at his best to face so face Ward. Let Ward get a fight or 2 under his belt and he will be ready at his new weight class.

Some of the **** that is said here makes no sense.

 

:deal


Kessler was also the favorite to win the whole thing..Look at how,things turned out:good
