It doesn't matter what Ward has done. What matters is GGGs team made 1000 excuses not to fight. There is no denying they made excuse after excuse. I mean EVERY fighter tries to fight the bigger names because it means bigger paydays, that's why everyone wants Floyd and Pac. GGGs people claimed GGG needed to become a bigger name, it's laughable. Then when he did become a bigger name they said he was too big a name. Even though he was still cashing smaller checks!! And his claims of being too small, well he was willing to go to 168 in 2011 for Steiglitz, but he's a small middleweight when it comes to Ward. He was willing to go to 168 for Chavez, but he's a small middleweight when it comes to Ward. He was willing to go to 168 for Froch, but he's a small middleweight when it comes to Ward. They asked Ward to cut 8 pounds and take a paycut FFS. If you can't admit they did everything to avoid Ward you are simply full of shit.
Ward has wasted his career, that is undeniable. What else is undeniable is GGGs people avoided Ward like the plague. I mean when it was proposed it was 10 excuses and maybe in 2013, then it was 10 more excuses and maybe in 2014, well in the middle of 2014 it went to maybe in 2016. Seriously, I'm not making that up. It's so ridiculous it sounds made up but no, they expect people to believe GGG has so many good fights lined up that the one fight people are talking about can be pushed off for at least a year and a half hahaha. Good luck with the excuses and the fictional fight against Canelo/Cotto winner GGG since theyboth have rematch clauses. But team GGG already knew that, we all knew that, all the talk is just BS
A year later and this fight hasn't even been talked about? Hopefully the Jacobs/Quillen winner sacks up and calls out GGG after their win.
All the same old myths rolled out. Firstly, not 1000 excuses, just one. GGG's team respect Ward to the extent that bearing in mind the size differential, height weight,reach, Ward's undoubted talent etc. that to make the fight a decent match up, they would be prepared to meet halfway (164lb) the reason GGG doesn't need to do that with Froch,Stieglitz and any other SMW you care to mention is because they are nowhere near as good as Ward and he feels he could beat them all at their own weight. THIS IS RESPECT AND A COMPLIMENT TO WARD! Can you not see this?
Next , he asked Ward to come down 8lbs. When? Bear in mind 172lb is not a weight division, it's just just a weight Ward felt he could make and no lower because he was out of the ring for so long, and who's fault is that?
Thirdly, while all this so called talk has been going on, Golovkin has been constantly fighting guys in the top 10 of his division, what has Ward done ? Answer, Fuck all!
GGG's team have always said they like to fight 3-4 times a year, they will not put GGG's career on hold at 32 years of age to try to come to an unlikely agreement with team Ward. If Ward wants to fuck about like that and let his career dwindle away, that's his choice.
You say you're not making it up, and you're not, but you're listening to people that are making it up.
Talk is cheap, it means nothing. Look at the facts, what they're actually doing.
Like I've said before, I'm not saying this because I'm a GGG nut hugger , if these 2 did fight each other, I think Ward would Win.
But let's not go down the route of denigrating a fighter doing well just to try to enhance the status of the fighter you prefer. It has no bearing or relevance and is pretty ridiculous.
