        Barrera hasn't had a chance to prove himself yet but I get the impression they're around equal. I'd definitely pick Barerra in a fight as Fonfara is easy to hit, and Barrera is powerful and bold. But, against other opposition they're probably close to equal with the edge going to Barrera.

          Barrera looks better technically but Fonfara has the better resume and is more proven.

            I don't know but I just see Barrera as kind of stiff. Not that Fonfara isn't but I'm not sold on Barrera yet. Strong, fairly explosive but something is off with him. I've liked some of his fights I've seen but I'm going with Fonfara's resume for now. That's not to say I'd pick Barrera to lose against Fonfara in a fight because I think it'd be a pick em type fight but I'm gonna respect Fonfara's resume in this case.

              Hard to say. Fonfara isn't anything extraordinary but he's solid and big for the weigh. Barrera hasn't had the chance to prove himself. Him losing to Ward won't prove he's inferior seeing that Ward is better than Stevenson by a country mile.

              Resume wise there's not much there for either fighter. But I think it'll be fair to say Cleverly is better than anyone Barrera has fought.

              If I have to chose I'll say Fonrara but I might be proven wrong on the 26th.

                Barrera is a low key bum but he is undefeated and Abel Sanchez fighter. I think Ward stops him. Fonfora better.

                    I'm not really sure but than again Stevenson isn't as good as he was 3 years ago , he still has only one weapon, and wasn't that great to begin with.

                    I'm not a fan of Ward blantant lies against GGG but I'm even less of a fan of Stevenson for running to Showtime and Uncle Al to duck Kova.
