You can't duck someone that's not in your weight class tho. Only Ward fans wanted that GGG fight. Nobody else did and GGG wasn't going to make the same level of money fighting Ward that he would make fighting Canelo. Ward, Froch, DeGale, Jack, Dirrell. Ward was also going through his legal issues and was barely fighting his damn self at the time. The rest of them nikkas weren't even bringing in Danny Jacobs level money.
I hope nikkas start pushing for Crawford against Jermell Charlo, since he might not get the Spence fight. Plus it sound like he don't want any of the top PBC guys either
Gotta keep that energy.
Paul Williams was ducked true, but he fukked that up after the Margarito fight when he lost to Carlos Quintana. You can't be the boogeyman and beat Margarito who was the boogeyman before you, have the whole boxing world's eyes on you and then lose to fukking Quintana in your next fight. His whole aura took a hit and he never got it back, even tho he stopped him in the rematch. Even though it was an off night, most fans used that to say guys like Floyd, Cotto, Pac, etc....would still find a way to beat him. shyt was unfair as fukk, but this is boxing.
Imagine if Rigo would have lost his first fight after beating Donaire or GGG loses to Lemieux. Nobody would even entertain that ducking shyt by them. Paul lost at the worst moment ever. It sucks, but that's what happened. He did work his way up to a fight with Pavlik, but that cac kept pulling out of the fight so Paul was definitely unlucky with that too.
