    Andre Ward confirms his fight with Barrera is almost finalized.

    (remove the space bar between "ring" and "tv")

    Andre Ward spoke to HBO’s Jim Lampley before Sergey Kovalev took on Jean Pascal at the Bell Centre in Montreal. The former super middleweight kingpin confirmed that he will return to the ring on March 26 against Sullivan Barrera and said that a superfight against light heavyweight titleholder Kovalev on HBO Pay-Per-View in November “is a fight that is going to happen.”

    Ward said he hadn’t signed the contract for the March 26 fight but that it’s a foregone conclusion it will happen.

    “Right now I don’t have any paperwork but I think it’s pretty much done,” Ward said. “So the paperwork should be coming in any day now so March 26 in Oakland at Oracle Arena, that’s where it’s going to go down.”


    If Ward is going to fight Kovalev, he's going to have to get by Barrera first, and that's not going to be an easy task. I'm kind of surprised he's taking this fight I thought he was going to back out.

      Wow, so the fight's not even a done deal yet. Ward, lock yourself into a padded room so you don't get an injury prior to the fight.
