    Calls for Andre Ward at 164, will NOT fight Ward at 168lbs because he is a 'bigger draw' than Ward.
    Calls for Gilberto Ramirez at 168lbs. GGG is a bigger draw then Ramirez, yet is willing to go up to 168lbs.

    :patsch

    GGG willing to go to 154lbs to fight Mayweather, unwilling to fight Canelo at anything under 160lbs i.e 155-159lbs.
    (I understand though, because Canelo needs to stop pretending he is not big enough to make 160lbs, fatty).

    Abel Sanchez needs to learn to shut his ****. Double standards is required. No man should be given an escape.

    No double standards, you guys just misconstrue every single thing that's said and take it way out of context.

    At least you kept it real you pathetic boxing fan. Only thing is you still don't know what the boxing term "duck" means. I don't ever expect you to learn though. GG didn't duck Ward.

    :lol: Hhmmm.. last I checked GGG holds a couple of middleweight championship belts.

    Why do people expect him to move up or down from Middle Weight ?

    :think It's not like GGG doesn't fight frequently and he has been willing to meet any contenders in his weight class.

    :admin Hhmmm... maybe no one wants to fight him ?

    ;)

    I don't expect him to nor do I particularly care for him to. He would be a BHop-like ATG MW at the end of his career. However, why say you'd fight one guy but not another at the weight, it makes no sense. It's clear GGG ducked Ward.

    I wouldn't say "ducked", more like steered around.

    Why are people saying GGG's not willing to fight Canelo below 160... Not that I think it should happen below but just I see this statement a lot in particular, Canelo has a fight scheduled and no negotiations have taken place as far as I know regarding this.

    ummmm

    because ggg has come out and said he wont fight at 155...and canelos side has come out and said it has to be at 155

    doesnt mean they cant figure it out ...but both sides have made those statements....soooooo...a conclusion is drawn

    ward was coming off a long layoff ...the smith fight doesnt count that was a glorified 2 mil sparring session.....

    was ggg going to take a tuneup fight for froch or chavez at 168? the answer to that is no....

    also...hbo and kovalev were cool with waiting

    props to ward for possibly milking an extra 4 mil out of hbo before the big one!

    Which for all we know could be posturing, why make assumptions when they're literally not even negotiating a fight right now and are both scheduled to fight other opponents?

    could be posturing for all we know

    till then...all we have is the words they speak...if they dont wanna speak on anything why even say anything about it at all ...."yeah sorry were not gonna talk about that till after our next fight"...is all that has to be said
