    Promoter calling Golden Boy Monday for GGG/Lemieux unification fight! (From boxing scene)

    Would this be a good fight for GGG as he waits for Canelo or Cotto fight to pass this fall?

    Should be a fun fight, and smart of GGG to steer clear of Ward.

    :smoke

    Lemieux would knock both cotto and canelo out easy

    RUMMY......

    What makes u think Ward, who was OBVIOUSLY OVER 190 LAST NIGHT.....(to anyone not blind) could boil down to even 165?????

    GGG is the highest drawing 160-175 lb fighter there is.

    He's the BRAND...THE CLEAR A SIDE. And he's got a division to clear out.

    Only way GGG gets to smoke Ward is @ 165 or less. And ROC will have to do better than 4 mil to drag him up to 165.

    GGG isn't A side ... he has no PPV track record as a draw. Nor does Ward, so they are co-A sides at best.

    And GGG's camp said he'd fight anyone from 154-168, so the fight could be made at super middle.

    Dk if it means anything but every boxing store I've been to, especially in Vegas, only a few boxers had items on display everywhere throughout the store. Mayweather, Pacquiao, and Golovkin. No one else had their own section. A lower scale shop had Canelo stuff on display, but that's it. I didn't see any Ward shirts, autographs, nothin.

    Golovkin had shirts (I bought tons, lol), autographs, gloves. He was the only one who had a section dedicated to himself besides May and Pac.

    A-side is not just PPV.. its whoever brings the money in the promotion, and/or has the leverage. In Ward v GGG, right now the A-side is GGG.

    That being said, Roc could make Ward the A-side if they wanted to make the investment. But its unlikely because theyd have to pull it from their own pockets, Golovkin brings more money to the fight.
