hard to follow boxing now after watching the greatness of Conor McGregor. MMA is so much more intense and exciting as a sport.

Corruption and a watered down heavyweight division pushed people away. I'm amazed people still watch it.

And that's coming from a former huge fan.

UFC is going to sell 4X as many PPVs next month with two chicks headlining. And that's not even getting into guys like McGregor and Jones.

The battle ended after Pac/Mayweather.

And unfortunately that wasn't much of a battle. It was a fight that should have happened 5 years prior.

Ward won by a round or 2

If kov never dropped ward we would all say it was a ward Masterclass.Bad start for Ward but after round 2 & 3 he showed his class and Greatness !

Too bad the fraud GGG wont move up and fight a real fighter...

“It’s clear to me that Golovkin doesn’t want to fight,” said Ward to theshadowleague.com “Well, we call him ‘Little G.’ Little G doesn’t want to fight and they do a good game, they do a lot of talking from his side and that’s cool but the way I was raised in the boxing game and the way I came up, it’s very simple.”


“I’m too big and even if he came up to Super Middleweight, I just don’t see that fight happening,” said Ward. “And its unfortunate because that would have been a tremendous fight for the fans and everyone wanted to see it. But he didn’t want to step up and take the fight.”

I'll admit. After watching Floyd duck and dodge (in and outside the ring) , I have quit on boxing. I guess its admirable that ward wants to fight a smaller guy. The smaller guy don't want to move up. I get it. Welcome to boxing.
