Comments Thread For: Ward on Golovkin: I Don't See Him Calling Me Out!

[Realizniguhnit]

Ward has no where to run and hide. I don't see him getting a Chavez fight anytime soon, and I highly doubt Ward is serious about moving up to 175 and taking on the big boys like Stevenson and Kovalev. The only other threat out there at 168 would be dirrell but he's always had some excuses not to fight him.

The only big fight for Ward to make at 168 at this point is Golovkin and yes I do expect him to call Ward out sooner then later after hearing this....

But it's unfair if he has to go down to his weight division... he'd be weight drained...he'd never have somebody do that for him, so why would he do it?

Ward is always whining about noone wanting to fight him. What a nuisense.

SOG already cleaned out the SMW division... so why's he still sitting around waiting for a guy who's still trying to clean his?

Ward shouldn't even discuss GGG. He should worry about staying more active and moving up soon. 3G hasn't even fought at SMW yet, that topic should be left alone.

Come on down to 160 Ward. I like Ward and Golovkin but Ward needs to slow down and realize he's in a similar situation as ggg. G makes 160 comfortably and could make 54 for the right fight. Dre makes 68 easily but 75 too big. Stay in your lane, don't be the 5th grade bully calling out the third graders. Call out the 8th graders (Stevenson, Kovaleav)if your the real

I understand where you're coming from. But isn't that the Marvin Hagler/bernard Hopkins blueprint to greatness?

I was always a fan of Hopkins but he truly gained my respect and admiration for what he has accomplished at LHW, especially in the last couple of years given his age. When a guy like Ward is being touted as one of the greatest boxers in the world today, and possibly of the last 30 years, you are held to a higher standard.

I've never really seen Ward sacrifice like his peers have to make fights happen. I understand he sacrifices plenty in his training and preparations but I'm looking at it from the point of sacrificing to make the best fights happen. Part of the reason I'm so hard on the guy is so many people always talk about how good he is yet I see so many other fighters making moves to prove they are the best by looking for the challenges....Ward wants the challenges to look and come to him.

Why would the P4P #2 have to come down to fight ANYONE? You guys are ridiculous with your hate. Ward is the second best fighter in the world, get over it.

I think a lotta the venom being spewed at Ward has a lot to do with the GGG diehards knowing that Ward completely derails and crushes the pipedream that Gennady will one day be recognized as the best fighter on the planet.

This should be an interesting fight... either they fight at a catchweight of 164 (non-title fight) or Golovkin moves up to 168 to challenge Ward if it's true that GGG will fight anyone from 154-175. At 168 I fancy Ward to win this fight by decision; I think SOG will outbox GGG.

It won't. HBO will keep building him up and start throwing that topic around.
Ward should move up to LHW because he has nothing there for him because he already beat the best.
Different from GGG who's staying there and is still trying to beat the best.

Who wouldn't be surprised about a MW going up to fight the SMW king.
