    :lol:

    This is a joke right?

    Repeatedly hitting the bully in the nutsack isn't bullying the bully.

    I did answer the question you just wont accept the answer. He didnt have to fight Ward but he did make the challenge which Ward accepted then walked away from the fight.

    No he wasnt taken out for that reason loool this is what they call revisionist history, Joshua wasnt even planning to go for a belt yet but when Martin got it he saw an easy way to get a belt and capitalised.

    What did he accept?

    Show the proof and not the stupid interview where telling the media he sent GGG emails and didn't want to know.

    Lol because he was moving up in weight coming off a 2 year lay off, it would have been okay if the two were willing to fight him but Ward was the only one keen on the fight. Ward even agreed to a catch weight which would have probably put GGG at a advantage coz Ward had not fought in two years and never at 164 before.

    Only Ward can speak on what he could (have) made. Fans on a message board don't get to make those determinations.

    Lool they turned it down, waited for him to get used to a higher weight then try to get him to back down, it would be a silly move for Ward.

    your spot on, if he says he can make it and he struggles and loses thats on him but I hate when people try to put words into fighters mouth like that.

    Broad challenge? They did at one point mention chavez jr and froch. You know, same two guys Ward wanted as well, based on being cash cows.

    So what he didn't want to face the #1 SprMW in his very first bout at 168. Ward didn't do that with 175. canelo didn't do that at 160. A ton of fighters don't face the #1 guy right off the bat moving up. Some do, sure, but those who have the ability to make those decisions, tend to test the waters first, or are trumped by a more powerful 'A' side.

    Who would care? As long as he had agreed to fight Ward like Ward agreed to fight Kovalev.

    Which is why:

    "Loeffler said his emailed reply to Ward's camp was that if Ward was still at 168 pounds in early 2017, Golovkin would be pleased to consider the bout at that point."

    accepted the 154-168? That literally makes no sense at all. Like I asked you before, when did Ward send out an offer to fight 3G? When he was already signed to fight Lemieux? That time?

    Ward didn't want that work. He'd rather fight other guys for less.
