Let the excuses for this sham fly

Strange days these. You have what really is a paper champion recognized by even the Ring as the best middleweight in the world even though he has not fought a middleweight since Martinez a year ago. Not only that, it appears that he actually has no intention on fighting another middleweight period. He then signs a reported 50 million dollar 3 fight deal with Espn.

Down the street stands the Kazak who barely gets into 7 figures for a fight. Not only has he destroyed every man he’s faced but he’s tried desperately for the last 3 years to unify with all the other “champions” to no avail. In the process of waiting on all these frauds he has blitzed the field. One of these pretenders refused 2 million to fight a guy with a pulse dropping his tin in the process to then find himself fighting for the same belt for less money with a man that can change the outcome with one shot.

Why didn’t Jacobs pick up the phone? He’s in a mandatory position for the real champion and could have easily got the fight. See, not even the guys mandatory challengers want to fight him. I hope Lee knocks Kid Ovaltine out on cable and 5 million people get to watch because at least Andy will sack up to the plate. Unfortunately his handlers won’t want it for at least a year or more. Next is Lemieux vs Ndam and lets hope David wins the other paper weight because he would also buck up and I think Oscar might agree also. Cotto is on the clock whether he signed a big deal or not and lets face it, he does not need the belt. They never signed him because he was one of the pretend title holders. The Kazak is his next fight after his optional so he will only get away with defending against a welter once.
There is no way he wiggles his way out of fighting the beast from the east after the way he stiffed the Wbc's native son. He will vacate the belt. This move also effectively kills any fight with Alvarez since Hbo has him under lock and key.

The OP just thinks very highly of GGG and thus wants to see him step up to the next weight class. He feels less highly of Ward because he doesn't call for him to step up to the next weight class, even though he has been at the top longer than GGG.
