    Let's look back at when Oscar was the cash cow at 154 in 2002... Had GGG said, ill fight De La Hoya at 154, make it happen...Could '02 Oscar beat GGG at 154? Vote and discuss.

    GG doesn't have the heart to go down in weight, so pointless fight.

    Nope. He wouldn't go down in weight for.... a middleweight championship fight.

    He'll go down for Mayweather (A++ superstar) De La Hoya (A++ superstar).

    Canelo is not on that Oscar and Floyd level yet. Canelo is a A- superstar and GGG is a B+ superstar who is quickly becaming an A level superstar.
    And GGG beats De La Hoya, Bad. Oscar is a tough dude thou.

    So draining yourself means you have no heart **** my old boot's whatever next?

    Does that mean Ward lacks heart as he said 160 for Mayweather yet wouldn't drop to 164 for GGG?

    I would have favoured Oscar who was an amazing fighter

    Oscar's record at 154 isn't THAT great.

    GGG would win by to. Oscar is great but 154 was far from his best weight.

    We haven't seen GGG at 154lbs. But Oscar of the Mosley 2 fight was a monster and definitely an ATG in terms of H2H ability, although clearly not as good as he was in the lower weights.

    This comment from Ward is always conveniently ignored by GGG hating whack jobs who shout 154 to 168 100 times a day at the top of their voices.

    Am I one of the few that can't see Golovkin making 154 and being healthy?

    Who knows since GGG hasn't fought at 154 in the pros, I'd definitely pick GGG to beat the 160 oscar though
