Gennady Golovkin is a bigger draw in California than Andre Ward!
Most boxing fans like fearless ring warriors, not prima donnas who rarely fight and demand all the advantages such as home advantage.
They want entertaining fights, not boxers clamping their opponent's arms and fouling.
California is Andre Ward's home state, but Gennady Golovkin, a fearless ring warrior from halfway around the globe, has become more popular there than Ward!
There was a huge demand for tickets for last night's fight. Did you hear crowd cheering for him and chanting Golovkin's name?

He wont because he will get destroyed.
Lets not forget who andre ward actually is and what resume he has.
GGG is avoiding ward like everyone else.
I agree that he will have more of a following because the majority of fans want that rocky type stuff.
Ward has never destroyed anyone

No offense meant but that is simply nonsense. And nonsense on more then one level.

You can't knock the guys marketability and knowing the fans. Coming to Wards homestate...for the very first time...and dropping Spanish and being cheered like wild pre and post vs a Mexican fighter?
Was Ward in attendance..must have missed him ???

Calzaghe had more style in his left foot than ward has in his left hook. Ward is extremely effective at what he does, but I don't think it's stylish. He seems quite lacking in imagination.

Why should GGG call out Ward? Ward's in no position to fight, he needs to sort his shit out. Besides , GGG isn't a SMW, he's too short and he makes MW easy. If anything, he should call out Floyd at MW or a catch weight . GGG wants to clean up the division , but there's no takers. What's wrong with that.
