Which fight is worse: Ward vs Barrera or Golovkin vs Johnson?

Ward/Barrera is a solid matchup, but it's looking like Andre Bored is going to continue being a joke and pass on that fight in favor of a Periban mismatch or something similar. Keep stretching, dummy.

problem with both these guys is their entire careers are stay busy fights
Golovkin has been outright dodged for years by every top middleweight.. He has legitamately been a top contender since 2010 and has been ducked by sturm, then serg, then cotto,

Can't be mad at either. Golovkin-Johnson is a mandatory and Ward-Barrera is a solid fight for a guy moving up in weight.
Here's another question, if Golovkin were no move up, would he face a fighter of similar caliber to Barrera at 168?

I've been giving him the benefit of the doubt for as long as possible, but after a certain amount of time and with a repeating pattern occurring you eventually start realising there's only one common thread running through his constant delays and cancellations. That's Ward himself.
Injuries and promoter issues aside, when it keeps happening again and again, you've got to start questioning why he thinks he's different to every other fighter that has to get in the ring and actually take a fight.
Amazing fighter, but to be anything in this sport, you've got to get in the ring and bloody well fight!
Anyway, the Ward/Barrera fight is actually very intriguing particularly if it leads to Kov in late 2016. Barrera is a big guy and fought quite a lot at cruiser. He's not that fast or super skilled, but he's very solid and had good technique. It's a better fight than Johnson for me, but neither is terrible.

Well Barrera is actually a top prospect, but he hasn't proven much yet. Johnson is a national level american fighter who's about as good as you can expect him to ever be. its funny people rank Beterbiev as high as they do when in all reality, he's about as much proven and as highly touted as Barerra is.
