JCC Jr. does nothing for GGG's legacy so stop it, he didn't even have a belt at 168 when this fight was being talked about. Froch does something for his legacy but not more than Ward would who's the best in the game today. Sure he would probably make more fighting Froch but it wouldn't be a huge difference. If GGG dared to be great he would have fought Ward by now. Ward dared to be great by entering the Super 6 and continuing to do so by moving up to 175 and is more than likely fighting Kovalev next year. It's time for GGG to do the same it's a shame that his fans don't want him to, they want him to sit at 160 and beat up on blown up 147 pound fighters fight B-&C fighters and then call him the second coming despite never facing an elite fighter and then make excuses afterwards and get mad at people like me because I see right through it pathetic.
It's not a nice post it's a pathetic scared GGG fan post full of excuses and fear of GGG facing Ward.:deal I bet you had a party when you heard Ward was moving up to 175.:rofl You GGG fans have no shame.:-(
Smith got a decent payday facing Ward for someone of his caliber. Ward-GGG gives career high paydas to both fighters. The money isn't the issue GGG and his fans thinking he will most likely lose is.:deal
As if Golovkin would have avoided such a tournament. Yes, Ward was fortunate the Super 6 happened when it did. It's the achievement he's still hanging his hat on 4+ years later. Dude, I think Ward is really good and all but let's not for a second pretend he's moving up to 175 to "dare to be great." The guy is too big for 168 now. This isn't some heroic move. It's what happens to a lot of fighters as they age and can't cut down to their old weight anymore. Please.
I feel sorry for GGG fans older than Ward but hasn't accomplished a 1/3 of what he's done older than Ward but hasn't faced one elite fighter in over 30 fights.:rofl If Ward retired today he would be a HOF fighter can you say the same for GGG?:hi:
He's moving up because he can't get any good fights at 168, GGG won't come within 2 time zones of him.:deal He's cleaned out the division. WTF are you talking about? He's daring to be great by moving up and trying to fight a monster in Kovalev you can't say the same about GGG who wants Lemieux and blown up WW like Canelo and Cotto. When people mention Ward's name GGG and his fans hide in the bathroom.:rofl
are you dumb? GGG would have fought JCC AND Froch for only one purpose: MONEY, not for legacy. Fighting 10 years and 33 fights, against weak opposition you might argue, without cleaning the division would mean he wasted 10 years for nothing. He has bigger fish to fry, richer too. Let's see Ward coming with JCC Jr or Froch level of money to the table THEN argue why they don't fight. Right now Ward would do **** to GGG legacy, he haven't done anything in 4 years and when he gets his well deserve brutal ktfo you clowns would argue how he haven't fought in 4 years.
:rofl:rofl:roflatschatschatsch super 6 was created for Ward, he didn't dare to do nothing,he didn't dare to travel like the rest of super 6 fighters, he didn't dare to fight an undefeated Bute, he didn't dare to fight Dawson at lhw, he didn't dare to fight a live corps on enemy soil, and he won't dare to fight Kovalev. The only thing he dared was fighting 2 bums in super 6 a.k.a. "replacements" for the original line-up then claim he's on the same level with Calzaghe. pathetic
Virgil Hunter on moving up weight classes: 1:38-2:32 [yt]CKDWkKAgQBA[/yt] ...and Golovkin is supposed to fight at 168 for the first time against the #1 guy in the division who is also top 1-3 p4p? Sounds like the exact scenario Virgil says one should avoid falling for in the boxing biz.
so Virgil is saying Ward won't "dare" to be great either...well...case close, i told you Ward won't go near Kovalev, he even turns the tv off whenever sees Kovalev
1. How does it invalidate the network obstacle / sticking point? It doesn't. Don't you think promotional teams would get tired of saying "Lara doesn't fight on HBO, next question"? 2. Tell me how BHop's reign was so much greater than Golovkin's, I'm all ears. Quillin is a documented duck, Sturm is a documented duck, N'Dam is a documented duck (twice) and Pirog pulled out due to injury. Who was he supposed to fight at 160? Let's not pretend the top 10 was great in the Pavlik/Taylor era either. 3. Nothing to do with my risk:reward ratio (3rd) paragraph, not sure what you're talking about. 4. A grain of salt still doesn't contradict the very fact that Ward obtained zero fights during his promotional dispute. Your speculation is only that, speculation. 5. Excuses? Did you actually read/watch the Hunter quote? LOL the way you talk, you clearly didn't. If Hunter was Golovkin's trainer, he would do everything he can to make him stay at 160, THEN move up to settle at the weight with multiple tune-ups, THEN fight the best at that weight. If you think Ward is fighting Kovalev in his first fight at the weight, you're mistaken. You move up without building muscle to fight a lower risk / high reward fighter, like Chavez Jr or Froch - only for you to come back down to the lower weight. You don't do that shyt against a bigger, top 3 P4P guy. It's only common sense, I'm not sure what you were getting at. 6. Who cares? Promoters do. You don't get to watch fights without them right? Ward might make more per fight than Golovkin at the moment, but he doesn't generate more when you factor in the gate and international viewers. After Oct 17th, Golovkin will make more and generate a whole lot more than Ward. The split down the road will reflect that, it's all supply & demand.
You're a fool. Ward is ranked #2 P4P by the Ring but he does nothing for his legacy??:rofl Just stop it. Ward would be by 1000 lightyears the best fighter GGG has ever fought. I mean you can't make this up, does nothing for his legacy???:rofl Do you just like to say stuff just to be heard? Ward offers GGG a career high payday more than he would get other than Cotto or Canelo who won't even fight him BTW and he offers more legacy than them to. We all know why you're trying to downplay Ward here.
