    these guys are both incredibly skilled fighters but i would rather not see this fight if one of them is not in the peak condition.

    maybe GGG moves up soon after taking on canelo v cotto winner

    :good

    Just to note, Paul Smith was more than four pounds over the agreed weight, and he failed the second weigh in on the morning of the fight.

    Why can't people read FULL SENTENCES ??? Golovkin said that he would fight at 154 or 168 IF IT IS A BIG MONEY/PPV FIGHT. Chavez and Froch would be PPV. Ward draws a negative number of people.

    Did Ward fight opponents better than Monroe in the last 4 years ??? Golovkin fills arenas when fighting Monroes and Rubios. Ward can't draw sh!t. There is a clear A side here.

    Ward don't want any of GGG @ 50-50

    That my friends is a FACT.

    And ward knows why....because there would be some glass chin explosions.

    That too is a FACT

    He loves fighting MIDDLEWEIGHTS, but they are afraid of him.

    Basically GGG want's 50-50 money and 50-50 weight.

    From the site on OP,
    "He's great boxer. It's very interesting for us - not just for us but for everybody. I want 50-50. He wants to fight with me. Absolutely I'm ready. I want fight with him. His situation, he [was] not boxing for like two years. His situation is not perfect for this time. My situation is much better. [I want] 50-50 money, 50-50 weight, 50-50 situation. This is logic, 50-50," Golovkin told Max Kellerman on Sports Nation.

    Golovkin fights crumb bums. Ward doesn't draw bums.

    It's a dilly of a pickle.

    Money, meh. The weight might be a bit to ask though.

    Says he'll fight anyone until someone agrees to fight him - then starts talking catchweights

    That's the HBO $5 mil & the gate.

    If Roc wants to pay Ward $15 mil, that's their prerogative.

    Except Toney was roided to the gills and Evan Fields was deathly afraid of being caught red handed.

    Anybody who thinks this catch weight has to do with A side/B side is kidding themselves. If he was willing to fight two other, less skilled, guys at 168, he should fight Ward there too. The catch weight didn't come about until Ward fought at 172. Golovkin doesn't want to fight him, they know he probably can't make 164.

    Alex...
    You're a fair poster.
    The CW should be criticized, but make NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT....

    IF THE MONEY IS RIGHT, THE OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE, AND THE CLAUSES MET.....

    GGG WILL BE FIGHTING WARD W/I the next 12 months
