Going after Kovalev is literally the hardest challenge one could take in boxing right now, especially when you're a weight class below him. If you were right about him having to go up (which you're likely not), then he could go after Stevenson or any number of other options. A huge guy like Barrera in your first LHW fight is not the path of least resistance. It's all risk, no reward. But, he's doing it to get properly prepared for the bigger challenge in Kovalev.
The scenario you're trying to paint is an absurd hater's fantasy and it would take a long road of delusion to get there.
