    And Ward in the same breath would've told reporters he wouldn't go down to 160 for Golovkin.

    WHY?

    Because, at that time, Golovkin wasn't a big enough name to make it worth it!

    Who funds the fight, Pimp? Ward's not taking a pay cut, and GGG isn't moving up to 168 for short money when he's the bigger draw. That's at least 5 million, minimum, you'd need for it, and that's if each settles for 2.5. They won't.

    People aren't fighting Ward because he refuses to compromise. The proof is in the pudding....unless you think all of boxing, with the exception of Paul Smith, is ducking Andre, too.

    The whole premise of ducking a fighter in a weight division above, whilst taking a unification fight is just absurd.

    Name the elite fighters at 160

    NONE OF THEM will fight him.

    Andy Lee's next opponent Billy Joe admitted he does not want to fight GGG and said Golovoin would beat him and Eubank jnr on the same night.

    None of the elite fighters will fight GGG at 160 so GGG is a duck for not moving up, that's the logic Ward fanboys will use! :lol::lol::patsch

    :lol::rofl
    Racist for wanting to see the bests fight??? What's funny and racists is that you don't want GGG to go up to fight Ward at 168 but have no problems with Rigo going up to face Loma at 126 or Ward going up to 175 to fight Kovalev. I already said I have no problems with either Rigo or Ward moving up for these fight you on the other hand have a double standard **** boy. Check your thread starting history you POS all you do is bash black fighters.:hi:

    GGG needs stop mentioning Wards name unless hes willing to man up and fight him at 164 he should really stop using his name for publicity

    My earlier post on this subject.

    The problem is 160 is weak and the guys with names like Cotto and Canelo won't fight him. I don't know how many times it needs to be stated? Cotto if he wins will either retire do a Canelo rematch or fight PBF. Canelo will either rematch Cotto fight PBF or fight soft touches for easy money. The WBC won't make Canelo fight GGG because they want him as their champ Canelo won't look to fight GGG for atleast 2 years and Canelo will hope that GGG has either moved up or has fallen off a bit before they fight him. This is very easy to see I don't know why GGG fans keep thinking that Cotto and Canelo are going to fight him because it's not going to happen.

    The only person gaining more publicity by GGG mentioning Ward's name is Ward himself.

    (but yeah, in essence I agree, hopefully this is the final stop to the speculations until GGG wants to move up)

    Nah Pimp's a good guy. Don't agree with some things but at least he's not over the top like some others.

    Yeah, he's one of the better posters here, definitely not racist or anything like that.
