Golovkin Responds to Andre Ward's Comments, "Step Closer to Our Battle"

[HamAndEgger]

WBA/IBO middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (27-0, 24KOs) gave a response to come of the recent comments that were made by WBA super middleweight king Andre Ward (26-0, 14KOs). The possibility of a Ward-Golovkin match is gaining speed with the fans. Ward questioned Golovkin's defensive skills .

"One thing that you see is, he hasn't had a reason to be concerned with defense. Everybody gets hit, but he is hittable" Ward said in the aftermath of Golovkin's knockout victory over Matthew Macklin last month. Golovkin says "Ward is making comments to build up a potential future fight between the two of us". I don't know where they're getting it from that I pay little attention to my defense. It's just like Macklin, who said that I didn't have enough experience and that I didn't have a defense. I've heard it all before. Let me put it to you this way - I have 20 years worth of experience. This is nothing more than self-deception. If I really neglected my defense, I would have been hurt, broken down, knocked down or knocked out. I have never been knocked down or knocked out. What can I say about Ward? This [statement he made] is a direct step toward our battle" Golovkin said.

If Golovkin fights Martinez and KO's him, we got the makings of a new Super Fight on our hands.

exactly, i don't know what anyone is even entertained at this fight the moment. even though i think ggg can beat the champs at 160 (degale, martinez, and quillin), ward is a different fighter in terms of talent. unless wards shoulder injury turns him into shyt overnight, ggg will get his lil ass handed to him by dre at 168.

I heard that in my head in Ivan Drago's voice.

All this talk that GGG says about fighting Floyd @ 154Ibs should be ceased.

He needs to worry about his own division and dominate it.

He's always asked the question because he's made mention he can fight anywhere from 154-168. I don't think he actually thinks he'll get the fight but why not just put your name out there anyway? People accuse others of piggybacking off Floyd, but if the media is asking him the questions it doesn't hurt him.

He has to do something to stir up interest. The names at 160 want nothing to do with him.

Martinez won't even entertain the thought of fighting him until after he has a tune up post injury. That's like a year and half/two years down the road. I think he and his camp are ready for big matches now, but the big matches are looking at him like
