    Wade?:lol::rofl:lol:


    Just fought the fight of this era against Pac in a mega fight retiring in his next fight. He's allowed a lower level opponent for his last fight he has nothing left to prove like I said before a fighter the caliber of Berto would arguably be GGG's best opponent.:deal

    Canelo
    Cotto
    Guerrero
    Mosley
    Ortiz
    Jmm
    Hatton

    Ward should test himself and fight GGG.

    He could cut a leg off and make 160 easy.

    Mandatory my ass. If pbf fought someone like wade for his mandatory he'd be run out of the sport. When are you going to stop treating ggg like he's 23? He's 34 and needs big fights quit crying about people ducking you at 160 move up and prove yourself like other great champs in the past did.

    Golovkin turned pro at 24 years old. So he was pretty much already done growing by the time he turned pro.

    It's way easier to move up in weight when you are younger and your body just naturally outgrows the weight class.
