Comments Thread For: Andre Ward-Sullivan Barrera Being Finalized For March 26

[daggum]

Barrera is the mandatory challenger to Sergey Kovalev. He's not on the level of the champions yet but he is among those who are next in line.

so is tureano johnson and that fight got bashed while the same people doing the bashing are hyping this up as a great fight. seen the hypocrisy over and over.

It's in Oakland though so Barrera already lost on the cards.

Name one time that Ward got a gift decision on the cards in Oakland. Just one time.

Might just go watch Ward fight and for my first boxing event too

[Larry the boss]

Barrera is #23 on boxrec, hasnt faced one good opponent yet, still i am fine with this fight. It's in Oakland though so Barrera already lost on the cards.

When has Ward ever gotten a gift or even needed one? and who in the actual **** uses boxrec rankings?

larry we know you don't consider refs ignoring clinching and headbutting an advantage but it's against the rules and ward was never punished for doing it. since you hate ggg just imagine if ggg was fighting in kazakhstan and breaking the rules to win fights. now what would you say? he's winning so who cares? prob not

I dont eat candy bud. I dont smoke I dont drink I dont do drugs I eat healthy I live healthy I train healthy. This is why I am so far superior to all of you man-boobed armchair fantasy Boxing league warriors and 35 year old athletic upstarts.

No Barrera in the ratings. That sucks.

Barrera is not a top 10 LHW. His best win is Karo Murat.

Who do you think he is? Gennady Golovkin?

I don't get it, why do people use alphabet rankings?

I don't know why you guys follow alphabet rankings, for all they care they will put a no hoper journeyman ranked top 5 somehow, like Giovanni Segura ranked 6. In what legit list will Segura be a top 10 fighter? Or Edgar Sosa at #5? In a non legit list at all. At least you are consistent though, using these lists.

Ring, TBRB, Boxingscene, ESPN, don't have Barrera in their top 10 rankings and that's what I go by. He's tough but he is not recognized as top 10 by the top ranking sources. It makes no sense but it makes you guys happy using these lists as legit rankings, these WBC, IBF, WBA, WBO, that sometimes are like 90% journeymen.

I don't know if anyone has called you out yet. .but:

When Sullivan Barrera gets stopped by Curtis Stevens, come talk to me playboy.

Barrera, Shabranskyy, Kovalev should lead to a unanimous FOTY campaign for Ward in 2016.

War Ward! War boxing! War America!
