This. Taking a loss to Ward provides all the excuse needed for the guys @ 160 and 154 not to fight him...
Thanks for proving my point. If you're 2x, unified, lineal champ at SWW, being too small for the weight is a feeble excuse. Seems like record padding and history cheating. Again, not all GGG fans are opposed to that fight, I'd like to see it ASAP. But someone tell Ward, he wants it to marinate.
In a year+, theres a good chance it will be a big PPV fight, where right now it would just be a big ratings draw. The fight will get made, Ward has said he thinks it will get made, Loeffler has said he thinks it will get made. Both sides just understand theres no point in fighting for peanuts now when they can fight for cashews in the not too distant future. That said, I wish the PPV this weekend was Ward/GGG instead of PAC/Rios.
Send him the memo about Stevenson as well. All Ward wants right now is a mismatch with Junior for the big bucks.
He also "called out" Floyd at 160. I wonder why all these guys got so much more upset with GGG "calling out" (both callouts were soft) Floyd, at least he said he'd drop down to 154 where Floyd has a ton of belts
How many offers has GGG turned down from Ward? Has Ward's team approached team GGG about that fight? One way to find out whether or not Golovkin wants it. Then there's always the risk that Golovkin actually accepts and Ward has to fight him.
Can't see him moving up to fight ward straight away. Maybe it's a fight that can happen in the future
Ward would beat the living **** out of GGG. If GGG's team has any brains they will avoid the p4p #2 like the plague. This is a 100% mismatch. GGG should keep on doing what he is doing, beating B an C lvl while knocking them out and making his name. Too early to cash him out IMO.
Stevenson has been calling out Ward, even on national TV, but Ward will not respond. Stevenson also said that if Ward is afraid to fight him at 175, then he would go down and fight Ward at 168. I don't hear Ward's fans asking Ward to fight Stevenson...........Ward refuses to move up in weight, refuses to take a PED test............... Golovkin wants to fight the other middleweight champions, he has been trying to get a fight with Quillion, as esp. Martinez, a fighter who Void will not fight, not even at 154. When Stevenson talks.............where is Ward?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=Gs2eQrZr6OE Ward is trying to talk himself into a fight with Chavez Jr. If his team were to make team GGG an offer, Golovkin might actually accept(gasp!) and Ward would find himself in a situation that he can't talk his way out of.:hey
Ward lives for guys who will come at him like GGG He will give him a boxing lesson if they ever fight.....which they wont....
Notice that Ward still not answer Stevenson......................... Golovkin said that he would fight Ward in the future......................if he does the fight should take place in a neutral venue, as Ward refuses to fight anywhere except his home town, with his ref, judges, commish, etc............why is that? And why did Ward refuse to take a PED test?
who the fu'ck is Stevenson to prompt the undisputed champ Ward to respond? Hes busy fighting this month and fighting Kovalov next.....
