    Yep! Wouldn't surprise me if Sergio wins the sweepstakes again.

    GGG knows Ward whoops his ass. Leave him alone and let him reign MW.

    Watching the Ward/Abraham fight again (especially the fight few rounds), leads me to believe that Ward doesn't whitewash GGG like many believe he would. Ward would eventually adapt because he's that good of a fighter, but seeing how he was stumbled off the first stiff jab from Arthur makes me think that a fight between the two isn't so clear cut. GGG is a much more complete fighter than Abraham, not to mention how much better of a jabber he is. I respect you as a poster bball, but I really think you're underestimating GGG on this.

    Kovalev is a big LHW, he would be tough for Ward to handle.

    They should meet half way or GGG should just move up in weight.

    Kovalev and Ward are the same height and naturally the same weight

    So Golovkin is allowed to duck because of high risk, low reward? Why is he the exception?

    If he isn't going to get paid as much, there is no reason for him to fight with a size disadvantage against a bigger guy at a higher weight. He is not the exception, that's just the way it is and it isn't a duck.

    That's a duck IMO, I'm not on the GGG is ducking Ward brigade and I think most of the criticism is unfounded and frankly comletely ridiculous but if he does move up to fight Chavez Jr, I do expect him to fight Ward at some point as well.

    There is no actual debate here. GGG has already said hes not ready for Ward. For some reason that isn't a duck. If anyone says that about GGG then hes a coward/***** etc.

    How is it a duck if he wouldn't earn as much to fight Ward? You have to be willing to fight everyone for free or it's a duck?
