Honestly the only reason I see this fight happening is because Ward is going to be on one of the biggest PPVs of the year and they want him to look impressive so people will want to tune in to see him again. That's it.
Yes, Ward beat Boone, but Boone dropped Ward, and I believe that Boone would love to fight Ward again: http://ucnlive.com/deezol-fueled-sparring-for-golovkin/
Read this if you haven't already, and by the end, Boone says that he'd love to have another chance at fighters to whom he lost. “So no, I don’t really regret the route that they took with me. But the preparation time, if I would get the preparation time for these guys – I’d beat them.”
Funny thing is that they could likely have gotten a deal with Boone for less money than they pay this Brand fella, and surely they could have made that deal 2 months ago when they started talking about the undercard appearance.
In fact they might have discussed it! Ward probably turned him down, like he turned down Kessler, Bute and Froch, because he hit to hard!
So when he fights a natural Light-Heavyweight, he stipulates that they come in at a catchweight, and when he actually fights without a catchweight, he gets a Super-Middleweight to move up for him. What a disgrace.
This man is 31 years old. He has campaigned at 168 for almost a decade now. Are you P4P one of the most skilled, or are you Ricky "I'm just a natural Jr. Welterweight" Hatton?
U guys would be singing the same song to Floyd had he never fought Pac . But Floyd fans knew it wasn't gonna be a competitive matchup . Booty was slapped around by Froch , who was slapped around by Ward .
That's enough for me to rest assure that Ward would of took care of biz against Booty handily . Booty was EXACTLY who Ward thought he was = Another proped up threat !

If ever you needed proof of Mayweather fans suddenly jumping onto Ward's bandwagon, here it is. Seriously, what the **** does Mayweather/Pacquiao have to do with my post or this thread?
Fights are won in the ring, son, not hypothetically. Triangle theories do not apply. Ward made excuses to duck the fight and then pretended like he wanted to fight him the moment Froch-Bute was signed.
Why would he decide not to be on one of the biggest shows of the year?
Sorry if I don't take the word of a proven manipulator of the truth but I'm going to need some actual evidence. Who the hell is Barrera anyway?
You can ask Hougigo unless you'd rather stay deluded. Barrera isn't much, that's what makes Wards refusal so sad. At least he's a LHW competing on the US circuit
