Comments Thread For: GGG's Coach: Liar Ward Needs To Become Relevant Again

[tredh]

So many on here saying Ward is irrelevant. But the best fight competition wise for GGG is Ward. The best fight competition wise for Kovelov is Ward. Something is not adding up.

Folks still talking about Ward hasn't done anything since 2011. Even if that was true is Ward still not the best fighter that GGG can fight? What happened to all that best should fight the best stuff yall always like to holler about?

I don't even like to post stuff like this but Ward winning the Super 6 is better than anything GGG has done in his whole career to date. So how can folks really keep trying to take a dump on Ward career to big up GGG career?

To show how biased some folks are Margarito after a year or so off comes back at 150 to fight Manny for a title at 154 none of yall screamed and hollered Margarito was now a junior middleweight. Yet Ward off for 2 years fights at 172 now some of yall screaming Ward is nothing but a light-heavyweight and question if he can even make 168.

This is just a sad situation all the way around for Ward and GGG.

Hopefully Ward goes ahead and beats Kovlev, and neither Canelo or Cotto give GGG a fight. The whole of 168 are Haymon guys besides Ward, and GGG won't even have the ward fight to look forward to. He'll be stuck at the wasteland that is 160, fighting the bums and guys who aren't ready to contend for belts.

Why would you want to see the most exciting fighter in boxing in limbo, your just a hater its pathetic.

Here we go again

I just look at actions that's what I look at and up until this point Ward has credibility with me considering his resume...Who is Sanchez to be questioning anyone's credibility with the crap they pulled with 164 catch weight nonsense ?

So now you moving the goalposts?

In your mind, when does Ward start to lose credibility for lack of activity and fighting bums like Paul Smith? Sanchez was not questioning Ward's overall resume, just his recent activity levels which in turn is all linked in with Ward's overall attractiveness as an opponent.

GGG haters jumped on him calling Golovkin LittleG - but quite frankly, the way Wards career is going at the moment we could soon be calling him BigRigo because he either can't or won't fight a decent opponent.

[SteveM]

This thing is Floyd-Manny all over again, just on a smaller scale. GGG has picked up most Manny's blind followers, who are hardcore fight fans. And they co-sign anything this guy does, regardless of fact and/or logic.

I'm scared of needles. I need 24 days of no drug testing because giving blood makes me weak. We need to erect a temporary stadium. I got a cut over my eye that needs a year to heal. I'll fight him for free, but I won't take a career high guarantee. I'll fight anybody from 154-168. Froch at 168? Yes. Chavez Jr at 168? Yes. Ward at 168? Hell no. Fight has to be at 164. Will you leave the middleweight division to fight a 40yr old welterweight? Absolutely. Will you leave the middleweight division to fight a primed super middleweight? Na, unifying middleweight belts against C level titlist and natural jr middleweights is my goal. All kinda goes together.

If you are not already, you should consider working as a publicity agent for a politician. They are adept at weaving unrelated facts together to create a compelling story-line with which they try to hoodwink the masses. Nice try.

[SteveM]

Ward is irrelevant in todays boxing landscape. Headlining shows in empty arena's in Oakland is not what a superstar does. On the other hand GGG is selling out Madison Square Garden. When was the Super 6 concluded 4 years ago???

Was it really 4 years ago? How time flies when you are an inactive fighter but active commentator.

[SteveM]

No, Sanchez, you need to make up your mind. It is either you want to fight Ward or you want to unify the middle weight titles. It is quite simple to understand what you just said no matter how obscure and convoluted you try to make it.

Jeez - what part of Sanchez' answers to questions he was asked were you not able to comprehend? Let me spell out what he said.

1. Golovkins main aim is to unify the MW division.
2. There are bigger fights at MW (talking money here baby)
3. Ward is not relevant to GGG at this moment in time.
4. Ward can become relevant by upping his activity level.
5. If that happens we can reconsider the fight.

Wasn't that hard was it?

So now you moving the goalposts?

In your mind, when does Ward start to lose credibility for lack of activity and fighting bums like Paul Smith? Sanchez was not questioning Ward's overall resume, just his recent activity levels which in turn is all linked in with Ward's overall attractiveness as an opponent.

Yes that's exactly what I'm doing moving goal,posts lmao..

Fighting bums like Paul Smith he fought him after how long of a layoff ?Meanwhile GGG is feasting on Paul Smith after Paul Smith !

But like I said who is Sanchez to be questioning anything Ward has done who has GGG even fought ?

I mean this is the same Sanchez that wanted Ward to defend his title against GGG at a catch weight when one he's never fought above 160 and two he's yet to beat an elite level fighter but I'm going to take his words as gospel ?

Credibility should be earned not made up !And that's what we have with this guy ..I mean his fighter gets a little buzz all of a sudden they think they are shot callers ..Yeah ok..

[megas30]

Whether Ward was lying or not, what difference does it make...when you flat out said you won't fight him, because he's not on your radar, and that you want to unify the middleweight first?

[bigjavi973]

omg this guy again

Worried about ggg fighting "relevant" fighters while Ward would be the absolute best name on ggg's resume.
