    Ward couldn't bring 300K views on BET... I don't know what Lemieux brought in, but once again, you can't just sell a PPV fight to hardcore boxing fans. That's not enough. The point of a PPV fight is when a fighter reaches mainstream- the casuals. Golovkin vs Ward wouldn't sell to casuals as well as Golovkin vs Lemieux. Ward is NOT fan-friendly, but it's easy to sell a PPV fight when both guys have over 30 knockouts. I'm not saying Ward would sell worse than Lemieux. I've never said that. But it's not big enough to compensate the 8 pounds that Golovkin would have to move up. That's the point I'm making.


    And if Ward doesn't want to wait for GGG then that's fine. It's not Golovkin's fault. That's Ward's decision. For GGG, I'm sure there will be other up and coming Super MW fighters for him to beat once he moves up. I'll repeat one more time: Golovkin WILL move up to 168 for good, but it starts FIRST at being the undisputed MW champion.

    Why is this poll not public? Would fight JCC and Froch at 168 but won't fight Ward who's better than them both at the same weight. You tell me?

    duck soup...

    who's duckin'? who's suckin'
    and ruining the game that has the name
    of science so sweet that it's a major feat
    to get out and make a bout to fight on Saturday night

    Ward is prime Gennady knows this is true
    that's why he's avoiding Andre, yes this he must do
    the smackdown is coming for GGG soon
    he wants none of Wards jab because that would mean doom

    Gennady's fans have confidence he can beat Ward
    but they haven't seen the dirty boxing folklore
    what you think can be may often be not
    Because you've never seen Gennady get caught....

    Because JCC and Froch are much bigger draws and lesser fighters than Ward, so K-2 is more willing to give up the huge size advantage for those 2.
    Now that we've cleared up the obvious, maybe someone can help me with a couple tougher questions...
    1. How does offering to fight Carl F'n Froch all the way up at 168, in England, make GGG a ducker?
    2. How does offering to drop 6 lbs to fight the #1 p4p fighter in the world at JMW, a division where Floyd has fought and is the lineal champion, make GGG a coward?
    3. How does offering to meet the #2 p4p, Andre Ward halfway at 164 make GGG a ducker?
    4. How does Andre Ward refusing to fight GGG halfway between divisions not make Andre the one who ducked? Especially after he was fine with weight draining Dawson down 7 lbs.
    Floyd refused to fight at 154. Froch refused to fight at 168. Ward refused to fight at 164. Cotto refuses to fight him at all. Yet GGG is ducking?!?
    I need help with this theory, because to me you guys make absolutely no sense whatsoever.

    A certain, specified group of fans
    always crying and surely demand
    for Good Boy Golovkin to get up and say
    he'll fight Andre Ward and face his dismay

    but these group of fans quite misunderstand
    that to make these fights you need more than demand
    and unlike a Jr or retired Froch
    no fight of Ward does anyone watch...

    and what Golovkin really wants most
    -all unified belts and ppv to boast-
    Ward offers none other than a name
    which isn't enough to compensate these days

    Still, these fans will cry foul and duck
    while Kovalev waits only 2 pounds above
    Instead Andre coattails off Triple G
    "Ward, as a man, you are dead to me"

    And it's looking like the majority of people agree with us, that Golovkin is in fact:not ducking!:good

    Please explain. I'm a Golovkin fan but I actually think Ward beats him pretty easy.
