    Only HBO, and people for whatever reason want to see GGG, get beat want this.

    If you want to see Ward have a decent fight, all he has to do is go up one weight class, there are 2 guys.

    No. I don't want to see GGG's winning streak end yet. And let's face it, he fought Rosado (decent fighter) then Macklin (a little better, not great), and now Stevens, who got dominated. He's not ready for Ward yet. Let's see him clean out 160 first.

    There's Martinez, Quillen, Barker, JCC Jr, Pirog (where the hell is he anyway?), plenty of great fights to be made.

    he should clean 160, maybe even try to get a belt on 154.

    You got some really delusional types on this board. They think Darnell Boone hits harder than Gennady Golovkin. I'd favor Ward to win via ugly decision at this point but Golovkin has a real shot.

    Hell yeah I do. Ward-Golovkin is one of the five best fights that can realistically happen in the sport today.

    Id obviously watch and be excited for it, but I dont really want it to happen, no.

    I want Golovkin to stay at 160, and carve out his legacy at middleweight. Try to become a middleweight great. Maybe be mentioned along the likes of Hopkins, Monzon, ect.

    I want Ward to continue at 168, (not move up to 175 like hes been talking) and become the ATG there.


    I already think Golovkin would lose to Ward (and a quite a few people at 175) so why would I want to see it?

    Hes not a big middleweight, so why would I want to see a guy who shouldnt be at 168, fight there, just to lose to a bigger fighter?

    Given the fighters involved, I would obviously watch, its a huge fight. But imo I already heavily feel the outcome is almost obvious and dont need to see G's record blemished in a weightclass he doesnt need to be in.

    Same goes for Ward when the calls for him to move up go out. He should stay at 168, not move up to fight Kova or Stevenson.

    This generation of fans are too division hopping happy, imo

    Brinkley picked Golovkin to beat Stevens tonight. Brinkley also picked Golovkin to beat Ward, but the trouble with Ward is that he is afraid to fight outside his home town without his personal referee, judges, boxing commission, etc............

    Golovkin wants to fight Martinez and Quillin first.................Much more money!!!

    :lol: No. Golovkin should stay at mw and TRY to clean it out. That is and should be his mission. He is small middleweight anyway who could propably make jmw limit. IF Golo manages to clean out mw maybe then taste the water at smw.

    Golovkin said he would make 154 and fight Void, but Void will never come near Golovkin!!!
