Could that possibly be through no fault of his own? Is it fair to give a guy grief for not attempting to clean out the division when the fights are just difficult to be made, for whatever reason? He's calling out Sergio after every fight. It isn't like he's not trying to make the fights at 160 - a lot of the top 10 guys at that weight just don't want it.

Personally, I don't see why he doesn't drop down to 154 if he can. There are a lot of higher profile fights - and challenging ones - there. Why move up for the one big fight with Ward, who's probably headed for 175 anyway?[/QUOTE]

It very well could be no fault of his own. The thing is I don't care about fault, I care about big fights. This guy has had NONE. I think he's good and have for years and I want him to prove it. I don't buy into fear, these guys are fighters they're tough.

He's fought plenty of 154 fighters, if he wants to continue that's fine but go to 154.

If he wants big fights at 160 but can't get them there's no point in staying there.

My problem isn't with GGG it's with the way fans back him. He can fight a bunch of 154 fighters at 160 but it's wrong for Ward to fight 1 160 fighter at 168? Why the double standard?

My main reason for wanting Ward/GGG is I think it's a great fight. I see it as the best fight between 154-168. If Ward goes up to 175 we never see it. And if Ward gets the idea he isn't going to get the fight he will move up.

I love a Kovalev/Ward fight or Stevenson/Ward fight. I just don't want to miss a GGG/Ward fight.

I don't think Sergio ever fights GGG. I think he's ready for retirement. We'll see, but as I see it I think Ward vs 175 is being held up by the hopes of Ward/GGG and Ward/GGG is being held up by hopes of GGG/Martinez and since I don't expect it to happen it's all for nothing.

It looks like the whole damn sport has bought into the Floyd/Manny sales model of building fighters on the hopes of a fight rather than building fighters on fights.
