Comments Thread For: Kovalev's Trainer: Barrera Looked Worse Than Ward Looked Good

[firstborn]

Interesting phenomenon these days, trainers seem to talk more **** than the actual boxers!

I'm sure Ward's camp is more worried about the open respect Kovalev has shown rather then the slights from Jackson......

Kovalev would have knocked Barrera out in 4...

it was more a swipe than actual trash talk. But your right. With the coaches talking smack these days you'd swear it was a tag team fight or something

ever thought Ward made him look bad??

Don't think Jackson isn't worried bout Ward

Ward comes back and beats a guy all 12 rounds whose number 1 contender after being off essentially a year. I don't know what these fight fans are talking about but that's impressive. I saw rust but that's expected which is why Duva wanted the fight to be next. If not concerned they wouldn't have even tried to rush the fight. Ward will be ready for Kovalev please believe.

Hahahaha!!!

Lol What were these two watching?

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

HBO, Duva and Kovalev have been Bullshi***ing nonstop hyping this crap matchup. Even the announcers for the Barrera fight were hyping all fight. Now the trainer is BSing also. If Jackson was honest he would have said this pitty pat fa g got Ward has zero chance he will be Krushed like a bug. There is nothing at LH for Kovalev until maybe Beterbiev gets his sh**t together. LH is a very weak division. Same situation for GGG move up or be ducked and fight mediocres over and over and over. The divisions under Cruiser weight are half divisions.

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

I have a red bar because I opened this thread: http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=706030

Barrera was #23 on boxrec for a reason. Slow, inaccurate and inexperienced. Kov throws accurate fatality bombs with both hands. Hom o Ward is Hypefest BS for suckers.
