Comments Thread For: Hunter: Andre Ward Already Said He'd Fight Golovkin

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Why? Golovkin's the A side and is waiting to unify his division. Ward wants the fight he should move down, GGG is the A side and should not move up for him.

Golovkin's highest purse is 900k. Ward's highest is 2million.

Golovkin's team and fans say he beats everyone from 154-168. I guess they should have put a disclaimer "Except Andre Ward"

So weak.

Purses don't always reflect drawing power.

And likewise you can argue the same for Ward and Stevenson and Kovalev. We both know he wants no parts of those guys, especially Kovalev.

This fight will happen in mid-late 2016..
GGG will be undisputed/lineal middleweight champ and Ward will be back and on top of his game and possibly with a nice Chavez jr beat down under his belt by then.. Build it up and then get it on.. Right now, this fight means nothing with Ward fighting like 2 times in almost 3 years.

Oh so you're admitting Golovkin wants no part of Ward? Cool. I respect you for admitting that.

This ^. This fight will happen but right now would simply be poor timing even if Ward suddenly became available again tomorrow.

Ward needs to finish off in court and get a coupla of tune-ups / career rebuilding fights under his belt and GGG needs to focus on unifying at 160 now it seems he might finally have the opportunity.

Let's look at the lesser bright side: 1) Golovkin will be ducked even this year by the "top guys" at 160 and will not become "lineal champ" (especially if "TBE" beats Cotto); 2) Chavez Jr. will not accept to fight Ward (a fight that Jr. would never win)...
So, in 2016 we're back on square one...

Thanks for bringing me back to reality lol...

I've acknowledged what they said and I've said I'm fine with their position but why do GGG fans keep fronting saying "send an offer" when we know that Team GGG don't think there's enough money in the fight to take the risk of facing Ward?

- GGG's team came out all hyped saying that everyone was ducking him and they'd fight anyone from 154-168.

- Ward said he would fight them.

- Tom Loffler was then forced into a public retraction of the original statement saying that they were "focused on 160" and that Ward didn't make financial sense to them.

- Ward then said "fine, just stop mentioning my name".

Those are the facts. I don't have a problem with Team GGG being unwilling to risk their boy against Ward yet. But don't make wild outlandish statements about how everyone is ducking you and you can't get big fights. Just makes them look ******.



No because that never happened.

you're like a 3 year old with your fingers stuck in your ears going "la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la cant hear you!!!"

You do understand there is a difference between "not wanting to fight someone" and "not thinking enough revenue exists to make a particular fight", dont you?

Because by your logic, if K2 were to offer Ward $350,000 to fight GGG, and Ward turns it down, then it must mean that Ward wants no part of GGG and is ducking him?

The revenue that exists would by far exceed what GGG is currently making.

However, that is still not enough for Team GGG to risk their man against Ward and that's fine. I understand their position.

What I'm saying is don't go around hollering that everyone is ducking you and you can't get big fights. Don't mention Ward's name if you aren't willing to make the fight right now.

Team GGG seem to have backed down from that but his fans are another story.
