This fight will end with Barrera taking a nap face down on the canvas.

Barrera will pull off the upset. Ward is down hill and Barrera is a precise puncher. Ward hasn't looked good in years.

Ward is elite but trust me Barrera is no bum and hits hard. This won't be an easy fight trust me. Barrera just lacks in defense that can be his downfall.

Nah, he will handle Barrera, and then you guys will call Barrera a bum.

Barrera is slow, thats his biggest weakness and i think hes one of these fighters who tire fast and lose their power. His only chance is to hope Ward is rusty and land a lucky punch in the early rounds.

Ward had "you got my respect pop" at 168 - question is whether his 175 pop can get Barrera's respect. If not Ward is in for a tiring night considering his overall inactivity.

Anyone know the best odds on this fight? Could be good odds for a Barrera upset in first 3 or 6 rounds.
