Fans and the media condoning this catchweight culture we have in boxing now.
168 is already a catchweight weightclass.
Some of these boxing writers are GGG stans

50/50 is fair in my opinionWards got some fans in Oakland, thats about it. GGG sells tickets all over europe and the states, he has a wider fanbase. Ward is an ant on the world stage
Ward is the overwhelming favourite at 168
164 makes it interesting, @krackdagawd and @Newzz do you think Ward beats GGG at 164?
I believe Ward beats him at whatever weight he feels comfortable making.
If 164 is too far of a drop, especially since he hasn't weighed in that low since he was 22 years old (and he is 31 now), he might be too drained to do anything but get KO'd....which is what all the SOG haters want.
Unfortunately for yall, SOG is too smart to allow himself to lose the fight at the negotiating table
GGG and his team called Ward out, and then wants him to catchweight? Nah...that's not how it work
If you call a man out, and he's a division above/below you, you better be willing to either go to his division to fight him or agree with HIM on what weight to fight at. Same thing I said about Loma vs Rigo.....so y'all can't say #SOGGang ain't consistent:soggang:

God forgives, you are forgiven.

We're on the blood path now
Ok then so they aren't that far apart. @FaTaL
Didnt Floyd come off 3 years inactivity when he fought JMM and still take the lions share?
Floyd was the A-side clearly.
SRL was a draw, but he was inactive and Hagler was "The Man" out of all non-heavyweights

I hear you
Wort ducking that whipping at 164 like GGG ducking that whipping at 168
FWIW i think Ward would win at both weights

Ward is not ducking though, because he was called out
-
He turned down the offer. Like he did against frochy froch

Bullshyt loool Ward is Froch's pops

At 144 yes, but AB ducked Khan at 147 first, even though AB was fighting at 147
Check the facts sucka. Ward called out Froch, even though he thoroughly whooped Froch already. Froch gave him a more than reasonable fight offer in a stadium in Nottingham, and ward refused. Ward says by Froch giving that sort of offer - it shows that Froch doesnt/didnt want the fight. By @Newzz logic, Froch could not have been ducking because he got called out

The facts are Ward flogged him with one hand, how you duck a man you beat with one hand?
Check the edit. But in summary, call out the guy you beat with one hand, then turn down the fight offer from beaten opponent - sounds like a duck to me
