    That's what noobies always think. Did Andre Ward move up to be great? No, he said he cold not make 168 anymore. Did Cotto move frmo140 to 147 to be great? Nope. Weight. Did he move to 154 to be great? Nope, he was KO'd by the top guys at 147, moved to 154.
    Terrence Crawford? Nope...making weight. There's 4-5 belts per division. title hopping to get a belt from the easiest belt holder is NOT trying to be great. Same w/ canelo for the most part. You have no idea what you are talking about

    Nope, just accurately responding to this pointless hypothetical thread.

    he didn’t move up in weight in his prime.
    He Had the opportunity & passed on it.

    now that he is on his way out, he is considering it for the last “PeyDey”
    Cmon lance, it’s the truth.

    That's your opinion FFS. He didn't have to move up...he could make weight.

    never said he had to, but he is definitely considering it now …
    ain’t he?

    Wonder why that is?
    Prolly for one last “PeyDey”

    Will he fight Canelo at 168 or at 160?

    Becauae he just said that? :lol: What happened when they were together?? # G said ready, Ward was in court and nursing a shoulder injury still. And when Ward came to make an 'offer' 3G was signed to fight David Lemieux already. Not to mention, when Ward returned, he was at Lt HW saying he could not make 168 anymore. If you can't follow how inconsistent Ward was, there's no help for you.

    & “GGG said Andre Ward is too much for him … not today” 40seconds in

    This content is protected


    He said, she said.
    fact is GGG NEVER moved up.
    So this is a pointless thread full of hypothetical BS.

    will be interesting to see if he finally moves up to 168lb for his last “PeyDey”

    The Kovalev that Canelo beat gets destroyed by Golovkin. The Kovalev from the 1st Ward fight give Golokin hell. Plant, BJS and Smith get beat fairly easy by Golovkin.

    :lol: Ward was inactive in 2014 with the lawsuit/shoulder injury...

    In April 2015 Ward announced that he would make a ring return after a 19 month long lay off.

    He came back as a LtHW. Stating he could not make 168...

    Good try.... you get points. :eaea:

    Why wouldn't he consider it if it means a nice payday when he's north of 40?
