- July 20, 2015 Undefeated WBA super middleweight champ Andre Ward in the Sportsnation studio to respond to GGG's recent comments, his ranking pound for pound behind Floyd Mayweather jr, a fight with Sergey Kovalev, and puts in some body punches on Marcellus Wiley!

I love Gennady as much as the next guy but Ward is too much of a step up. He will dismantle him.. The GGG team know this so it won't happen until THEY want it too. He needs to at least beat Cotto and have a few fights at super middle weight before he has a chance.
Tom Evans Totally agree dude. Just b/c Ward hasnt fought in 2 yrs make everyone think Ward has lost some steam. Not the case. Abel Sanchez big f***ing mouth
Lol yeah when he gets ko'd by GGG you gonna cry about those 2 years lol
If that happens ill take my hat off to Gennady.. As i said im a fan of his, but im also not stupid enough to think he's going to beat Andre Ward at this point.. He has a punchers chance and thats it.
Tom Evans I completely get your point, but thing is, boxing him is not as easy as it seems, because most people we see fight golovkin can outbox him, but as soon as they get hit they become afraid to constantly throw their jab out there, so while ward is a better boxer, I think he would lose. Also, it should be a 50/50 fight, ward is well known among boxing fans but to casuals he is a nobody because he never fights.
MrOutPerform Ward has a very, very good chin and I would say he's the 3rd best defensive boxer out there behind Rigondeaux and Floyd.. He's bigger and better then the cans Gennady has fought so far.
I'm really shocked, Ward didn't try to clinch Marcellus Wiley
He's not Mayweather. Have you actually watched him fight?
Oh you must be talking about Wladimir Kil-INCH-Ko. The clinching king =/
You mean the head butt coming out
GGG wants no parts of Ward. He'd get that work no loaded lux. It would be the middleweight version of Floyd vs Pac.
Lux!! Did u watch the Clips vs Lux battle? Beloved gave him that paper work!
+navos2003 facts
100% agree King..
Ward is a light heavy weight and triple G is a middle weight...........
Thats like saying why doesn't ward fight tyson fury? Smh
to me it seems like YOU want GGG to NOT want a fight with Ward...maybe youre scared.
Why isn't this guy a bigger star? Great in the ring and in interviews
+Deondre Clark Because he is honest and not following what the media wants
Holy shit. Gennady Golovkin is 345 and 5 amateur record with 35 wins and 32 kos, also debuted in 2006. Ward is 115 and 5 amateur with 29 wins and 15 kos and debut in at 2004. That is a big difference, I feel GGG is secretly accustomed to all fighting styles and will shock ward when they fight in the future. or if they fight.
Boxing... Please give us GGG-Canelo... GGG-Ward... Ward-Kovalev... Kovalev-Stevenson... All of those fighters are fantastic. Just make it happen for the sake of the fans.
+Matlock Wallace Definitely but GGG is smart, there no point moving up in weight when he hasnt beating the guys down there like floyd who always dodged GGG. Ward should fight kovalev
+hassan Waleed Floyd ducked GGG?? if you're trolling you're doing a terrible job....do you even know boxing? or just following the random casual... lol moron
+hassan Waleed ggg has to be worried about Jacobs Billy hoe canelo
There's a reason I didn't list Golovkin-Mayweather... It's not a fight that should be made.
+Jay Vb I seriously doubt Golovkin is the slightest bit worried about any of those fighters.
Andre Ward is very humble and confident in his skill set I like this dude a lot be a good face for boxing if my opinion counts lol
Idk know if underrated even does this man justice.
I've never wanted GGG to beat Ward this bad! I hope GGG will knock him out this fall
Arkalyk Akash Haha, its going to happen, just like Pacquiao KO'd Mayweather.
Arkalyk Akash We'll see!
SuperGeronimo999 Well, Pacman has never been a KO artist. No one expected a Ko in that fight. Not the best analogy, write me when you'll think of a better one ;) P.S. You don't have to duplicate your comments :)
Arkalyk Akash easy work. Ward is waiting after Lemuix knocks GGG around a bit.
Arkalyk Akash Still, many people picked Pacquiao by execution or something like that. I mean, he stopped Cotto & look at the Hatton KO... P.S. Its just TH-cam, no idea why it happens.
After seeing him in Creed, I can't stop seeing Ward as his on screen character lol
A Beast, and a nice guy!!!
Andre and Triple G. Both class and smart dudes.
Ward should be a superstar by now ... my money is on him all day
There's a reason why he is not.
+nelq06 Dude where are you from? The only place Andre Ward could sell is Oracle stadium in Oakland, California his hometown besides than Andre Ward can't really sell a fight. He not marketable because his fighting style suck.
+T0PSECRET wtf is wing chin?
Even the days he's not boxing?
He's a good fighter no doubt but he's not active enough or fight the right people to b a great fighter.....
I tried to find some Andre Ward highlight videos but I couldn't find any.
Andre seems genuinely nice guy here
Dylan Morgan hes not hes a dirty fighter and he is alwsys trying to diss GGG bcuz GGG is getting the fan love that he feels he deserves just bcuz he won the super 6! hes a clown
he doesnt give a fuck about a fan base, where do you seem him doing anything for attention. Its called pride
This dudes shirt gets me tight
Compare Ward's response regarding fighting Kovalev to Golovkin's response to fighting Ward.. One deferred quickly and the other padded the opponent and actually spoke relevant things toward the question..
I wonder if people saying GGG gets favoritism for his skin color actually realize he isn't even remotely white? He's from Kazakstan, a country in central Asia.
HAHAH you are a fucking idiot
An nice mens warehouse suit lol
+matthew goodman Well thanks for showing us how glaringly lacking in both intelligence and common sense you are if you don't know the difference between literal and colloquial. Being that stupid must be painful, at least when you don't have your helmet on.
+matthew goodman Someones mad they can't afford nice things.
Cary Rumley Mens warehouse is nice for someone is Arizona haha
Andre has a great personality
Andre Ward: "If you look at my track record, I've always been ready and willing to fight everybody."
Floyd Mayweather: "If you look at my track record, I've always been ready and willing to fight everybody shorter than me with a shorter reach, former great fighters way past their primes and definitely any mediocre guy with a belt that has no shot if beating me."
Having said that, he's also an all-time fighter who's always in great shape and has an off the charts high boxing IQ. He makes adjustments pretty much better than any fighter I've ever seen. He's not the most physically gifted fighter I've ever seen (that would be Roy Jones Jr.) but he may have the best work ethic.
Great show! Ward and Triple G my fav fighters! Very humbling.
I give GGG a good chance, I think he will trouble Ward for sure
I would love to see them both fight when they reach 49-0 or 50-0.
Have you ever noticed how most of the GGG fans who comment on boxing videos are also huge fans of Kovalev, meanwhile they shit on every big name black fighter? Funny that. Wonder why that is.
GiantSandles Kovalev and GGG are humble people who knock out their opponents in the ring and run their mouth less. Thats the reason people like them not that they are racist or hate black fighters. Are you stupid or what. Btw I am not even White or black. lol
irfan ali Kovalev basically called Stevenson a monkey on twitter, that's not very humble. In fact that's far worse than anything Mayweather, Ward, Bradley or Hopkins have ever said.
Manuel Rivera I'm sorry is that not true?
GiantSandles
no come on.... enlighten us.
Manuel Rivera stop being a coward
One has more power, the other has more Heart
Andre Ward have more heart??? GGG have more Power and heart. Ward is a dirtier boxer, and GGG have a real heart. Real mexican style
Hey! It's the guy that knocked out creed!
i only watch ward when i want to see a clinching match
Andre Ward has a 6' 2" 170 lb light heavyweight body who white washed everyone in the middleweight division. The dude's strong. GGG would be crazy & stupid to get into the ring with Ward and box him at Ward's catch weight.
+Mike Camacho you don't know a shit about boxing
+Mike Camacho how the fuck no glory ward beating ggg or kovalev beating these three fighter are the tuffest undefeated p4p fighters out there and you say this shit ain't no underdog in these fight they are 50/50 fights and if ggg beats canelo he is the face of boxing when you said this shit I knew you didn't put a fucking glove in your hand because I'm a fucking boxer and I know the fucking pain a boxer has Training before every fights frustrated and broke ass niggas like you only critic boxer they don't know the shit they do to be there so shut the fuck up if you don't know a shit about boxing DAMN FOOL
AGREE
Stupid as hell. Nowhere near the same power as GGG.
Ward would outsmart GGG at any weight
Ward remembers all the numbers in the last question, but it took him one half of a minute to calculate it out and wrong. lol
Golovkin will destroy him.
HA!
Nah Andre would box the fuck outta him
+Pepsi 007 lol
GGG hits harder
lost his last fight. but the judges somehow fucked it up. GGG would take him out
wow Andre just used TBE Floyd's line i cote " lets make it happened"" with the same gestures .....wow no doubt his the next big thing coming up after Floyd.
Fight Kovalev.
+PowerUpBoxing Tell GGG to fight Lara or ward first. And Ward is not a pussy like ggg, so he will fight Kovalev somewhere in 2016.
Lara i agree. Ward is fighting at 175 where Kovalev is
+PowerUpBoxing he is scared of kovalev
+PowerUpBoxing he is gonna fight Kovalev in 2016. A deal is already in place.
Kovalev would KO Fury
ward needs 1-2 more fights to become the famous technical fighter he was in 2012 and then they should fight at 164.
GGG already has a opponent for september and then is fighting the winner Canelo/Cotto next year first.
***** oh god Triple G is ducking him already
RobR
please stop talkin trashtalk,like a papagei
he's not g.g.g. he's not Triple G. *he's triple DUCK. Ducked Ward. Ducked Hopkins. Ducked DeGale. Triple Duck.*
True word
+Racism IS a Disease The only place Andre Ward could sell is Oracle stadium in Oakland, California his hometown besides than Andre Ward can't really sell a fight. He not marketable because his fighting style suck.
+Gerardo Falco his fighting style is incredible what u onabout lol
and ducked Lara
Racism IS a Disease triple D
Andre ward is finally back!
Ward will take this bum to school
Ward knows that avoiding GGG is in his (Ward's) best interests. Ward can spin words as much as he wants - keep in mind GGG fought Ward in a 4 rounder some time ago and GGG won that fight and he would and could do it again.
Ward is an american boxer and that is a main argument why he's better than GGG.Reading this comments i realised that quickly :D Put them in the fight and we will see who is better,these comments is just crap talk!!
thoses punches would tickle GGG.
Hi......... Told you casual GGG is shit he ducks like a pussy
Ward would not demolish Golovkin but he would give him a boxing lesson.
Saul who told you ? Wake up ..
Golovkin will never step up.
doug daughtry hahaha, jokes on you sucker; andre"hypocrit" ward was offered a fight at 164 and turned it down, so whos ducking now?
doug daughtry I remember when everyone said, Bute should have been in the Super Six, he would beat everyone, he's the #1 at 168, would KO Froch & Ward. We all know what happened. I like GGG, but he would most likely lose this & sadly his management knows this aswell.
SuperGeronimo999
Why is it so hard for u guys to understand what golovkins management team actually said? it only takes logic to see that they never meant they would fight anyone at that weight; they said they would fight anyone that makes financial sense from 154-168 and Ward is not one of them. Boxing is as much a business as anything else and if u can't sell u are going to have a hard time calling the shots; as we have seen gg has offered ward a catchweight fight and no word from him. In fact, ward dick riders are already complaining about that as well LOL
SuperGeronimo999
Ward is the real chickenshit, he's been babysitting the 168 division for a while and refuses to move up to 175 even though he can make the weight easily. For his last fight, he came in above 168;kovalev has been calling him out but no word from him again
arnold wayne No one is taking serious dude. Either way Ward will body little man
Ward's strength is his skills, quick punch, GGG's his power & ability to take a punch. If Ward can't keep GGG away a lot better than he kept Edwin away, he will be in for a rude awakening.
This guy's ducking GGG. People root for an inactivate fighter, reminds me of the delusional pacman fans.
+John Haggard How is he delusional.
GGG is the one who won't make 168 to fight Ward but will cut to 154 ( he would kill himself cutting to that) to fight floyd. Like rosado said " that sounds fishy" I do like GGG but he is ducking Ward.
S. Gallo Heavyweights would do the impossible to cut down to fight floyd, that 40+ mill's tempting. Ward isn't the A side anymore.
I would go down to fight Floyd too. It's a once in a life time payday for ggg rather than fight someone who hasn't fought in 2 years and recently fought idk who xD
Ward beat a #10 ranked drained Lightweight in Chad Dawson.
Kovalev is on another level.
ggg would kill ward - plain & simple
Delusional hahahaha
+Takingout thetrash says jim lampley
Yikes... Ignorance is real
+Ruben Rodriguez exactly! GGG is a good fighter, no doubt.. But Andre Ward is a force to be reckoned with
your delusional, Ward will expose GGG . Call ggg he will tell you the same.
They are already 1 weight division apart. Plus, GGG is a small middle-weight who would find it easier making light-middle than super-middle, and Ward a big super-middle who would find it easier to make light-heavy than middle-weight. To me it would be unfair, whatever catch-weight they held it at.
Floyd never "beat" anybody beside his girlfriend. He won 48 marathon matches....... haha
+Mason Kim lol why a Pacquiao fight ? and what he said isn't completely true ,he did avoid the fight alot against Pacquiao
***** I know what boxing is but really by hugging every time you are about to get attacked I know it's not in the rules but cmon really even at a gym if you do that with any coach he'll tell you to get out you aren't fighting much
+Alan Vazquez you don't even know Floyd's resume. 48-0 and he's never fought a good match? smfh.
Name a Floyd match that is as exciting as Marquez vs Pac or barrera vs morales , Ali vs Frazier
LOL. Watch castillo vs floyd.. watch chaves vs floyd. these are BIG names, HUGE fights. Ricky Hatton and him, to me, was his best fight though.
I had a dream he was teaching me to box. seems like a cool guy to look up to. I'm officially a fan!
Andre is going to be like mayweather against pac when he fight ggg. Running around the ring and holding. Edge triple g by 2 punch every round. Mark my word it going to be a reply of may and pac. Win by hugging. But if ggg nutralized the hugging he win hand down.
so ur saying ward is going to win.
lissongreenbanger yes only if ggg cant nutralized the hugging
lissongreenbanger looool
I'm happy max is there because he's veey knowledgeable
What a leech lol. When GGG is on the show, he does a few segments of G or not a G, gets interviewed about his favorite punch, and fantasy match ups between some of the biggest names in boxing. When Ward shows up, it's ALL about GGG (which he lied multiple times throughout and still didn't even say yes or no to the question, "Do you want to face GGG.") It shows you how Ward is just riding off of GGG's name to stay relevant, and how little people actually care about him as a boxer. Sad.
Lol
The promoter knows once he loses to ward they won't be able to sell him like they want to.
164*
Somebodys a dumbass
Marty Mar Theres a difference between saying you're "ready" and "available" and wanting the fight. Don't call me an idiot. This dude Ward goes on for 5 minutes on some stupid tangent to a yes or no question, "are you willing to fight GGG." It's not a hard question, and he's never said yes or no in any interview he's ever been asked that question. He wants GGG to chase him, not the other way around. He just said, "I'm waiting for GGG to come after me, I'm ready," even though he won't make any concessions on the weight to make the fight happen. The reason the fight hasn't happened yet is because of Ward, and Ward solely.
Its to fight the best to be remember as a legend the true!! Andre 100 % right
Ward chases GGG cause he wants everybody to forget that he's scared of Krusher. Why not Krusher first if he's closer in weight.
Because he don't want none of that thats why.
Trim down & then u can just put on weight instead of putting on weight & then trimming it all down to get to a weight 2 weight classes down the body doesn't work like that, that's y. It wouldn't be healthy
Christian Thomas What? Your sentences are hard to understand. I think I understood what you were trying to say. But Ward probably walks around at about 190-195. So all he has to do is cut less weight and he'll have the option of gaining a little extra muscle. And be less drawn out the day before the fight. Either way what you said for Ward also applies to GGG. What I said obviously also applies.
He's going to do in both of them
Ward scared of Krusher? Yo dude ward would beat any fighter in the world right know even mayweather! Like he said Andre Ward is available for anyone who wants to fight him!
Michael Solis It's tougher on your body to be going up and down in weight, it's easier to get GGG now at 168 and then move up to 175 and stay there, rather than putting on muscle to be a 175er then try go back down would be harder.
Good chemistry there
Damn Marcellus is one brave dude. He didn't even wear a cup protector. Against this guy? He won brave dude, that's all I'm saying.
GGG won't fight him Ward will fuck him up easy
Jose Crespo Jr shut up
"relax" "relax"!!! calm down 🚬 its only boxing 😎✌
Jose Crespo Jr GGG is real, i think he'll fight some big names when he has the chance
Mountain man I sure hope so. He isn't getting any younger he is 34 years old. So far he don't seem real. This hype don't seem real specifically.
Jose Crespo Jr. ward been ducking GGG since olympics.
I would rather watch paint dry than watch Andre Ward fight !
have fun
You'd be the first to purchase the fight
***** Look at your profile pic, you look like you're taking a shit.
you're in denial you clicked the video to watch him dumbass
Roc Nation should be ashamed of themselves what happened to Daniel one of their Fighters has almost died in the ring and they did absolutely nothing for him and then dropped him like a bad habit
Once again who is this dude andre who?
ERICBOWE1 what did I say that was racist ?
Do GGG fans literally hide behind the fact that Andre Ward doesn't have a lot of rep? Huh...well that's just the double standards in boxing. If your going to back up that Gennady is the better fighter just wait till the fight.
I mean honestly can you really compare Wards ands Gennadys opponents?
Patrick Star who is andre ward..really who is he?
ERICBOWE1 GGG's worst nightmare
ERICBOWE1 who's anyone on GGGs resume is the better question
such a likable dude
They all ducking Andre Ward!!
+Thomas Adams The only place Andre Ward could sell is Oracle stadium in Oakland, California his hometown besides than Andre Ward can't really sell a fight. He not marketable because his fighting style suck.
+Gerardo Falco His style is boring. He doesn't suck. He still beats everyone so they still ducking him.
ducking lol why fight someone that is a good fighter and doesn't bring good numbers of money its a no win situation.
+dank jr For pride and legacy purposes boxing isn't supposed to be all about money
SoDedicated6 well tell that to the family of the boxer who died on the ring. This is a dangerous sport if you are not making good money its really not worth it. As the customer i want a good fight for cheap but i understand why he would avoid a fight with someone like that specially knowing there are weaker fighters out there that you can make more money out of.
"I bet Triple G knows" LMAAAAOOOOOO
weight down bro.. GGG wants 50 50 fair.. GGG will beat u.. flattdown
you high or just dumb.. ggg just ducked canelo and took half the payday to fight someone under his weight class meanwhile wont move up to fight ward that's why the boxing world is clowning him right now
ggg ducked? hahaha u dont know nothing if u said he is duckin
Get the feeling he's hanging around for the Canelo fight and the last belt to unify, but that might take a while.
What's with the gay shirt ward .
***** lol so true
That's a bad ass shirt.
Francisco Soto Very gangsta in my book. If I see this shirt on the street, I might even sprint for a mile.
***** Hahaha
+Charbel Belfort Fuck you mean "so true" tf ...
Andrea seems like a really cool dude, in addition to being an excellent, intelligent fighter. He chose not to try to show off and hit MDub as hard as possible, which is respectable... That being said, the title includes "..unleashes body blows..." in very misleading.
who`s Andre Ward??????? jajajajajaja
The best pound for pound right now, future hall of famer and one of the greatest ever.
+Sagar Thakuri Bitch, p4p #1 now is Roman gonzalez, idiot. Ward is even lower in p4p ranking than ggg LMFAO 😂😂😂😂
+qwe rty roman gonzalez is a shit
what fucking rankings are you looking at?!?!? lol YDKSAB
he said whose andre ward but clicked on the video clown
Last time I remember Andre Ward faught is against Carl Froch. I thought he was full time commentary. If he wants to be in the boxing hall of fame, beating GGG and Kovalev will help him.
Did u see ward vs Dawson
I could see a rivalry developing in a year from now when Andre gets his household name up because it's obvious to me Triple G wants a big pay day. Only problem is, in order to create enough interest for a mega PPV fight which I think could materialize, both fighters have to continue to win in exciting fashion, and one of them is going to have to play the villain. At the end of the day this is entertainment and some controversy always generates human interests. IMO boxing needs this. unfortunately I don't know whats in the fighters heart of hearts. Wether Ward is willing to go down to 164 and Meet Golovkin or wether he's eyeing to try and seize the lightweight division.
Golovkin has already made it known that he wants Canelo or Cotto but he stumps when Ward is brought up. I don't think out of fear but I think down the road he could see this as a huge pay out so why eat the meal while it's still cooking?
Ward vs Kovalev would be great as well as I know Kovalev will not shy away. I could see Kovalev playing the dangerous Russian Villain and Ward playing the Great American Hero since you know the US and Russia are at political disputes. Only problem with that is it would almost eliminate a date with GGG since I don't think Gennady would go up to light heavy weight anytime soon if he's not one by now.
Both are great fighters and it will be a toss up if they fight... Theses are facts in the minds of boxing historians and me alike. I like both of them and u can tell their really good guy's.
Keep calm guy's thats the pound for pound best fighter in the world except for Floyd at he 's prime. Kovalev, GGG, Canelo, Stevenson even Wilder lol bring them all Ward Will teach them what is boxing
GGG is not scared of that dirty fighter ward. lol Ward got destroyed by Kovalev. Ward is very dirty fighter.
Andre Ward, great guy and supreme boxer. Will be too big and too smart for GGG but let's see that fight for sure! Kovalev, now that is really interesting!
man boxingtalks channel thinks that ggg is a god hes so biased with ggg personally i think ward destroys ggg just because of his technical ability ward is just one of the greatest and that will never change .ggg is just power and thats all.
Ggg talks he'll fight anyone, but doesn't take the Ward challenge.
i love andre and gennady
Someone please tell me wtf has ggg beaten that is considered an above average or better fighter?
triple G does not walk around at 185 or 190. He weighed 170 the night of his fight so he rehydrated 10 lbs. he might walk around at 175.
Shut up about GGG already! He's a small middleweight who hasn't even cleaned out his division. Ward needs to fight Kovelov, that's the only one I would pay to watch
I like Andre Ward and its funny because in actuality, he's very mean in the ring. He's a take no prsioners type of fighter. I cannot wait for Ward vs Golovkin, Ward vs Kovalev.
Looking back on this Andre ward by murder ggg would never to able to handle Andre tough rugged style and the switching body punches Andre is the man
This could be a repeat of April '87 Hagler v Leonard......
Kovalev would fucking destroy Ward it would end in a 5th round knock out
Andre should go for Kovalev if he is such a macho boxer, instead of looking to fight somebody in a lower weight division.
GGG is 159.5 pounds Andre is 168 pound.
Not a good fight ....ward would just hold and hug GGG all night like he always does
* grab and hold the shit out of GGG......I fixed it for you
Ward is also the most articulate boxer out there.
From 4:38 Ward does a great impression of Floyd Mayweather lol.
Such a nice guy. Great to heat GGG and Ward talk after Mayweather's bullshit
I really hope this fight happen one day, better late than never!
Funny how ward avoid the kovalev talk
second best pound for pound in the world....beat the best to be the best..definitely a more interesting contrast of questions and answers than a ggg canelo bang out, both great champions but much the same, although i would still ppv that match for sure..
Kellerman is a GGG and Pacquiao slurper. If Ward has been out so long then GGG should want to fight him. He makes excuses for both of them all the time. How the hell can he in one breath call Floyd the best pound for pound fighter, then claim that Pacquiao is the best fighter of this generation??? That's just plain nuts.
This was a long time ago i think he changed his mind
Ggg and ward both are good for boxing
Ward has nothing left to prove at 168. GGG has a lot to do at 160. Ward needs to move up and work his name at 175 and fight Adonis and Kovalev
Andre Ward is the best fighter ever lived on this planet. But GGG would put him into sleep. Ward should fight against Khan. Both fast. It would be amazing to watch.
ChozenFew Fan of who ? ;)
Ward would outsmart GGG at any weight
He's not ready that's what all the fighters said before golovkin knocked them out
im playing this fight in my head, and can't see GGG losing it
+Georgiaftw Who has triple G fought that your impressed with ? Honestly who ?
it doesn't matters who he fought, it's how he moves and he's shot selection
no comparison given their skill sets within their natural weight classes.
