Why does Ward-stans want GGG to move up?

[daggum]

welterweight lineal was passed around like a three dollar whore for sailors on shore leave from a long tour back then.

I think we should encourage Ward's diva approach. Worked for Winky Wright right?

winky wright more like winky wrong! am i rite people! hbo needs to hire me. i mean i would be better than ward but he needs a job so i'll let him have it.

I would like to see GG fight the winner of Lee/Kid Chocolate because I don't think he has faced a B level puncher Yet. Stevenson amd Rubio are not that good. They either are too slow or not skilled enough to set up a power punch against a guy like GGG. Out of the two I would like to see Lee get a shot. It would be an explosive fight and the fans would pack MSG.

you ask why "ward stans" want ggg to move up? the real question is why would boxing fans not want to see ggg vs ward i mean seriously that fight would be epic. now that floyd pac is made thats gonna be the one that takes its place. I mean seriously ward vs ggg i honestly dont see how you wouldnt want to see that fight i honestly cant think of any good reason for the fight not to be made besides saying things like ward should fight kovolav etc but of all those matchups nothing comes close to a ward ggg matchup it would be a great fight. were talking about the 2 guys who are going to be 1 and 2 pound for pound almost for sure when floyd and manny are done

[CLUE]

I want to see Ward fight both. Any true fan of boxing wants this.

i would not say so much of moving to 168 as just wanting to see ward ggg i also would like to see ward fight some of the light heavyweights obviously kovolav comes to mind the only problem with that is he has said he could not even move down a pound on catch weights and all these fights most likely would have to be at a catch weight to be fair. that dont mean i want to see ward move up either. heaven forbid "ward stans" want to see an epic showdown between ward and ggg in their prime ohhhhhhh the humanity

Yeah that'd be a great fight, but Ward needs to get back in the ring first. Meanwhile GGG is fighting 4x a year

....while they dont want Ward to move to 175 and fight Kovalev?

Is there a double standard?

the better question is "Why are GGG stans afraid for him to move up"

[Daddy T]

they should both move up. ward should move up now and ggg should move up once he's unified 160. when ggg moves up ward can come back down to 168 for that fight. but there is really nothing for ward at 168 at the moment ... he is just sitting and wasting his prime while big fights are available at 175

[Pain~Lucy]

Dont worry GGG will fight ward after ward's done feasting his 3 bums

[BattlingNelson]

there are some good fights at 168 for ward, i dont really see any fights for golovkin at 160. plus golvkins people keep talking about how he could beat anyone at 168, if you are going to talk the talk you should walk the walk. ward and his people on the other hand have stated he needs a bit more time to grow into the 175 division, but he will move up eventually. thats fair enough.

So you want GGG to move up because his team has said something while you want Ward to stay even though he HIMSELF years ago said that he was planning on fighting at HW.

Sounds like a double standard to me.
