Sullivan Barrera offered Ward fight

[El-blanco]

This video...

First of all, why are they doing this without headgear? You know, **** happens and one could get cut or something. Second of all, why are they doing this by a sink and washer/dryer? And third, I see Golovkin has been watching Ward.

I've seen that video before and burst out laughing when I saw that. Wondered the same thing.

Better opponent than anyone GGG has fought in his 10 year pro boxing career. Gotta give it up to Ward.

Meanwhile Tureano Johnson is up next on the C listers that GGG has beaten.

There's a freaking ring right there. Why wouldnt do try it in there against the ropes so he can see what it feels like or in the middle of the ring with more room to operate. Still funny tho.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

Been rumored that Ward Debut fight at 175 was going to be a big one, I hope this gets done!

by who? like where did you personally hear this from?

[Rip Chudd]

Would be a good fight, i'll believe it once it's announced.

Wow, Ward's first fight at LHW will be better than anyone on GGG's resume?

I believe Sullivan is going to accept.

Wasn't Sullivan the mandatory for someone a few months ago?

Was it Beterbiev?

Here it is:

http://www.badlefthook.com/2015/8/27/9215723/artur-beterbiev-vs-sullivan-barrera-slated-for-ibf-eliminator

After failing to secure fights with the likes of Bernard Hopkins and Sergey Kovalev, top prospect Artur Beterbiev finally has an opponent: unbeaten Cuban Sullivan Barrera, who has agreed to face the Russian knockout artist in a bout to determine the IBF mandatory challenger.

"As with the other eliminator, neither a date nor location have been selected.

Beterbiev (9-0, 9 KO) erupted onto the light heavyweight scene by demolishing Tavoris Cloud in just his sixth pro fight. Since then, he's also smashed spoiler extraordinaire Gabriel Campillo and finally gone past the fourth round in his knockout of Alexander Johnson.

Bernard Hopkins and Jean Pascal, among others, reportedly turned down fights against him, leading to this bout with IBF #9 Barrera.

Barrera (16-0, 11 KO) beat down the broken husk of Jeff Lacy this past January before knocking Hakim Zoulikha, who was on a three-fight losing streak, in what was apparently a tougher out than expected.

Ideally, things will go as planned and the winner (let's not kid ourselves, it's going to be Beterbiev) will get to fight Kovalev. We can dream".

this is a prime example of why guys like floyd/ward never fight good opponents. they have fanboys who think the 23rd ranked guy in the division is a big fight. they don't need to do anything else if this satisfies them.
