You've got to give Andre Ward credit

Yeah and Joe Calzaghe had a 75% KO ratio. Don't try to BS people who've seen Sullivan fight. If you want to say its impressive beating Sullivan because he's a skilled fighter, fine, but don't try to pull "he's a big threat because he has a 67% KO ratio!" as if that means anything. Quite frankly, a guy who is a big puncher should have a higher KO ratio considering the level of opponents he's faced so far. Sure, he was able to KO shot to bits Jeff Lacy but went the distance against 9-13 Larry Pryor and 16-10 Joell Godfrey, etc. KO Ratio isn't telling us anything much at all, especially when we're discussing prospects who haven't faced good opponents yet.
Barrera is a legit boxer, you don't go 285-27 beating the likes of Chad Dawson without boxing ability. Factor in his 6'2 frame, 67% ko rate, it makes him more dangerous than anyone Kov or Stevenson have faced.
The most dangerous LHW each man has faced was Stevenson-Fonfara (50% ko rate) and Kov.-Cleverly 47%Comment

Bro, you saw 176 pound Paul Smith in the ring did you not? You think THAT was better than Willie Monroe? Context man, jesus christ.Comment

no shame losing to Boone. In case you forgot, Boone KOd Stevenson, gave Kovalev all he wanted, and put your hero Ward on the floor.Comment

Calzaghe's KO ratio is fool's gold, he was the beneficiary of ridiculous stoppages, the same way they stopped Murat-Cleverly when Murat finally started throwing more lmao. Barrera is the only person to legit stop him.Yeah and Joe Calzaghe had a 75% KO ratio. Don't try to BS people who've seen Sullivan fight.
