    He should move up to 168 and test that theory.

    I don't need to. It's ggg who doesn't care about money and legacy, the normal type of leverage that motivates fighters, he needs public pressure.

    So Wilder gets a pass for bad opposition(far worse) but GGG doesn't? Explain to me how that works.

    Who said Wilder's opposition is worse? Wilder also isn't being crowned as P4P either, he has to earn respect in the ring, ggg well, he knocks out bums and is crowned P4P top 5.

    Wilder's opposition is definetly far worse. Wilder fighting Arreola would be like GGG fighting Fernando Guerrero. GGG is fighting the best available challenger next, Wilder on the other hand is fighting the worst one.

    why do lil g fans always get super insecure and hyper sensitive? its always "ward last 5 years doe"..."floyd iv doe"...."what about wilder doe"

    wilder isnt a p4p top 5 guy...he doesnt even register in top 20 lists...holding him to the same standard is nuts...like clinically insane

    always some desperate attempt to bring up guys like floyd and ward with more accomplished resumes

    id like to say i could never understand it...but i do get it....you guys live on the internet, vicariously, through little g and dont want his image ruined

    its sad...but you need to do what you need to do in order to get by

    Why do you keep saying this over and over?

    Why have you convinced yourself that Andre Ward was sat there ready and willing to fight him?

    That fight would have been so hard to make over the last few years, due to a number of reasons.

    He can only fight who agrees to fight him. Canelo is going to try to drain his big ass down to the weight class below to duck him. Cotto moved back down, Jacobs signed to fight Mora for a rematch he said was pointless. Eubank might step up and fight Golovkin. Saunders already turned him down. So what is he supposed to do?

    Has there ever been a time in boxing history when a boxer was so blatantly ducked by everyone yet people give him stick for not fighting anyone
