Ward has no problem facing Mayweather at 160 but can't fight GGG at 164?

    They never even asked for a catch weight. You need to get your **** together before making threads. Even YOU can't be that dumb....

    So Loma should move down to face Rigo...? It's ONLY 4 lbs, right?

    Froch is 168 at fight night, check out his history. What was Ward at fight night in his last fight? Around 180. GGG can not fight LHW's yet when be wants to unify MW. He might be a boxing god, but there are still limits. As soon as he unifies MW, he can go up to LHW. If he goes no to fight Ward at 175-180 at fight night, do yoh think it's so easy to lose 20 pounds or even more if Floyd wants to fight? You guys are delusional.

    I love how this Floyd thing people spin it like "He'd move down because that's a great pay day", okay so GGG moving up for Froch and Chavez but not for Ward is not because of the paydays?

    Stay consistent.

    Funny how people saying GGG = A-side.

    Lol!!!

    He hasn't made more than 1.5 million in any of his fights, Ward made 2m in each of his fights in his last 2 outings.

    There's a reason he wants 50-50.

    He's getting overpaid or GGG is getting underpaid in that case, it has nothing to do with how many fans they attract. It says a lot that in a GGG-Ward fight most people would come to see it for GGG, he'd probably be 85% of the ticket sales + viewing figures.

    Disagree, but it would be in GGG's favor!!!

    It would probably be 65-35 at tops, maybe 60-40. Ward sold some good tickets at the Oracle when he was still active.

    He is, but sadly b/c Rigo is so undervalued, hell likely be shafted.

    Lomachenko should concede the 124/135 if he dares to be great.

    Just as Ward and GGG should concede themselves.

    I think the 60/40 contract @168/180 is perfectly fair to all included

    Only non Caucasians are allowed to make demands based off recent hype, drawing power and dominating their peers.

    Eastern Europeans need to just take their seats at the back of the bus and pray for a Rosa parks reincarnation of the Caucasian persuasion.

    It cracks me up he made a thread saying Ward is scared of coming down in weight to fight Golovkin when Golovkin said he'd fight Froch and Chavez at 168. Well, if Ward is terrified of dropping some weight, isn't Golovkin terrified of gaining weight? You can't look at it only one way, that's alarmingly thick.

    Ward's challenge to Floyd was as significant as Hopkins Challenge to Floyd .. it was never going to happen but now all of a sudden it's gospel to GGG teams to justify the clear duck !
