    He expected the 154lbs fighters to move up and they did. He might of went down for Floyd but thats it. You are all taking things out of context. I guess they should have broken it down for those who dont understand. You all just take things and run with it.

    It's hype, nothing more or less really. These people are drowned in the hype they are fed and have no room for reality because they don't understand how reality works in this sport. It's just a matter of time before he's completely forgotten because we really have zero reasons to remember him for.

    Golovkin fans in 20 years when they remember him: "Remember how Golovkin would have been able to KO heavyweights and beat everyone, I can't believe his haters wanted him to take pointless fights against other top fighters when he obviously would have won them all."
    GGG fan 2: Lets watch replays against Rubio and Wade, what ATG performaces"

    If you're not ready to fight everyone at 168, don't say you will. Simple as that. He tried to sound tougher than he was, got called out and made a fool out of himself. That's all.

    No it is not all.
    We do not know had he even been offered contract for such fight and did not had saw FULL text in such contract.
    Maybe something there didn't looked for him acceptable. Maybe he didn't had even get contract sent to him to read up.

    We are bored with things like: called out on social media and fans are hyped. Endless talks.

    Okey, if about other boxers, for example one boxer had been like you love to say by another boxer.
    Not GGG, nope, no one from mentioned here boxers!
    Doesn't matters.
    They had sent contract to boxer xxx with 1 sided rematch clause. When boxer demanded no clause or dual side rematch clause, he didn't get next offer.
    You simply do not know how much nucances there are.

    About GGG btw I do not care so much and aren't interested about his offers so deeply as ppl here might think.

    Google the thing. You will find articles quoting GGG:s team saying that GGG would face anyone at 168 and then refusing to face Ward over 164.

    I have no big problems with him not facing the best guy at 168 and he seemed willing to face anyone at 160, but I'm not very impressed with bragging and then not following through.

    I didn't had asked for things easy to google up.

    I had asked: did they had sent contract to him and what had been in this contract.
    I guess you did not had get the core of my question.
    Fight contracts usually are on multiple pages.
    Maybe you should ask Ward or GGG about this question. I don't know did had they sent him contract or no and what had been stated in this one.
    If they had sent.
