    Hasn't GGG team basically said they want to unify the 160 division but would be prepared to move up or down to take a big fight that made financial sense, being worth the risk from a financial standpoint

    Drop down to Floyd ( just like any other fighter would jump at the chance of the Mayweather sweepstakes )

    Jump up for Froch cause that would be huge in the UK

    Ward wouldn't be worth the risk, a small MW against a large SMW and not enough $ when there is good chance of getting beat

    GGG is a MW, and wants to unify the MW division, isn't that what we want from all belt holders ???

    Exactly. Perfectly stated, man. :good

    They'll move up for a huge PPV fight, but other than that, they'll just continue working on their goal to unify the division.

    As you have pointed out, I'm a big fan of rigo, but I would have liked his career to be managed in a different way. Dont ask me how, I have no idea, just different. 15 fights is nothing for a fighter of his talent, it's a pitty. :-(

    That's a lot of BS. A fight with Ward can be hyped into a mega fight because Ward's credentials speak for themselves. You don't have to lie about him. All that needs to be done is to show his successes and do some promotional tours/ a 24/7 and a one on one. It would be a very big draw. GGG and his team just don't want none. All that mess about his team making three attempts to fight Ward is BS because Ward has no fear what so ever of GGG and is supremely confident that he is the better fighter. GGG don't want none but he's talking himself into a corner and might have to make the fight in order to save face.

    I'm back. Woohoo.

    Tom Loeffler and Triple G said those comments on Ward were not Triple G's.

    Andre Ward has been quoted saying he wants "a couple tune ups". It's not that he is scared of GGG just like GGG isn't afraid of him.
    These are guys looking to fight the pound for pound best and they will.

    Real simple.

    Golovkin really needs to fight somebody credible next or his career will officially be a joke.

    Like Golovkin had any option. Kazakhstan is a freaking third world shythole. fighting outside of his country was the only way for him to feed his family.

    Forget were Ward fights at, lets talk about Golovkin's resume. Ten years as a professional fighter and his best win is Daniel "freaking" Geale. :patsch

    Hes calling out every champ in his division, the best fighter at 154 (who weighs as much as he does fight night ) and called out the number 2 guy the division avove him.

    But because hes not calling out ward, an entire one fighter across three divisions, for his first ever fight above middle, well thats just not good enough for mr chacal :lol:

    Get a grip :patsch

    Was.

    Past tense.

    We are in 2015 now.

    Let's see where Ward's ambitions lie.
