Comments Thread For: Andre Ward-Sullivan Barrera Confirmed For March 26 in Oakland

[Strive 4 Truth]

What makes Barrera so good that you consider him better than everyone Kovalev and GGG have faced?

The wins over All Time Greats Karo Murat and Jeff Lacy?

Let him be, some guys just dont understand. Its like talking to someone in grade school. The guy has tunnel vision on ******.

Very risky fight for Ward, but i have no doubt he comes through. WARRRRRR SOOOOOOG

Wards only fight this year

Is ward gonna fight krusher next? He didn't fight on the cotto undercard. Ward and kov are supposed to fight later this year. Just wondering if it was pushed to 2017.

It'll happen, just give him the time to develop into a LHW.

Finally

Finally the return of Andre Ward. Can't wait to see this fight.

Very interesting for both fighters. For Barrera its a huge step up in competition and its a chance for him to make a statement that he can be a future face of the division.

For Ward its a solid opponent and it will be interesting to see how he reacts to a heavier division. Depending on how he does he might drop back down wait.

Hopefully Ward is both 100% ready both mentally and physically.

depends on how he gets through this fight, tbh

Ward fights Barrera in March on HBO, fights as the co-feature on Cotto's card in June (rumored to be against Juan Manuel Marquez, but the card slot would give him a big fight on the East Coast), and then fights Kovalev in November on HBOPPV.

the only reason barrera was choosed is because he never fought any top lhw. His biggest win is the bum Karo murat. In other words, Ward has cherrypicked and its gonna be a mismatch. Very disappointed by ward

[Scipio2009]

anyone going to the fight?

Not getting a ringside seat for the fight (4 tickets at $300 a pop is kind steep), but will definitely be in the lower bowl.

ward will potshot him to death.. bring on kovalev.
