When will ggg stop feasting on a shot Martinez's leftovers?

He's not. OP is hoping this is the case

 

They're both on record saying they think it'd be a great fight.

It will happen if or when Ward manages to resolve his legal problems and becomes a draw again.

 

Anyone bringing up Quillin is a moron. Quillion is ducking anyone with a pulse.

 

a "draw again"?
because Murray, Rubio, Adamana" were "draws"?

 

those fights were to get ggg more attention and they were the only ones who would fight.

you need to understand how this sport works

 

just macklin right?? and now murray not all his leftovers.

plus many feel murray beat serg.. i thought serg did enough to out point him..

but that fight was ****ed it was raining half the fight

ggg/murray is a good fight

 

THIS. Sergio was a great champion who was top 5 P4P. He beat Pavlik, Williams, Dzinziruk, Barker, Macklin, Chavez Jr and Murray. He was down many times (Pavlik, Murray, Chavez Jr, Williams) and lost some fights in the process. He wasn´t criticized for having low level opponents. Business wise he had better opponents.

GGG fights against the same level of opponent all the time but he wins more convincingly and dominates his opponents. He hasn´t been on the floor in amateur or pro fights. Still he is not on the P4P list? Seems absurd to me. Williams lost to Lara and Quintana, Barker was more or less at the same level as Geale, Macklin or Chavez Jr. Pavlik was A-level but had been beaten before. Dzinziruk was really a 154 and small for MW.

 

Most fans/fighters/media have GGG in their top 10 p4p, and many in their top 5.

However, b/c he's not been given opportunities at 154 or 168, it's tough to put him in the top 3.

He'd smash any of the titlists from 147-168, but getting them to sign is a different deal altogether.

His problem lies in his size.

If he takes short $$$ to make a Ward fight, he'll have to add MUSCLE to make 168 and be 100%. In doing so, he'd struggle to drop back to 160, and mega fights at 152-155 would be out of the question.

So what K2's short term plan is to unify the titles at 160, maximizing his earnings at that weight, while hoping for a megafight with either Canelo or Cotto.....ie a fight he'd make $5++++ mil for, and make himself into a PPV attraction.

At that point, once he's made the 500K+ buys area in PPV, he could move to 168 and get the Ward, Dirrel, Froch, Chavez Jr etc fights that would generate the type of $$$$ top 3 p4ps typically make. In the 6-10 mil range/fight. :think

 

**** oof mr 173 & fight ward, instead of calling out the 23 pound lighter floyd!!

 

It's gonna be an expensive fight. Neither guy's gonna take this one on the cheap. GGG needs to be bigger and Ward needs to get back in the public eye.

 

trip G had never called Floyd out, that's not even on his radar currently

 

You're just some chick that picks her favorite fighter based on how they looked

Martinez was overrated af

Deal with it :deal

 

Richard Dwyer.:hi:

 

**** thread, I agree, but Europeans aren't dominating boxing... Not even close. :bart

 

Murray is a solid opponent
