I agree with Jackson, Barrera looked like ****! Ward (like Floyd) has a habit of making good guys look average, so it's hard to say that Barrera was not properly prepared. One thing though, Ward did not look ready for Kovalev...YET!

I thought Barrera looked decent but ultimately couldn't overcome Ward because he's just so ****ing slow.

Surprisingly countered Ward a couple of times which shows great timing when he's slow as all ***.

He's easily one of the slowest punching light heavyweights I've ever seen. How in the hell did he land **** on Ward

Agree or not, team Kovalev should be praising how great Ward looked to help build their fight (if it happens).

Because Ward made him look bad. It's no coincidence that fighters look bad against Ward.

as good as ward looked he was rusty no question

So much of GGG but I'd like Ward/Zurdo w/ his movement /style...my only dislike is Zurdo needs 2 fight taller...

LOL barrera is so slow and dimensional its not even funny yet ward still got rocked.kovalev is going to knock his lazy eye straight.

[daggum]

it was a perfect style for ward and he still looked bad. a slow tentative guy and they boxed on nearly even terms with every round being very competitive. kovalev needs to get this ward tune up out of the way so we can focus on stevenson/kovalev again.
