I won't believe it till it's officially announced , but if this comes off, I would be more than satisfied. A good test with a proper LHW , and Barrera has everything to fight for as well.
all everybody wants is for Ward to fight regularly. He's got bags of talent , but he needs to use it. Here's hoping.

That's definitely a fight if it happens. Barrera is a really big LHW and looks solid(if a bit stiff from what I can recall) he has nothing to lose and it's a big opportunity for him. I'd guess Ward will be to good, but it's the right kind of fight for him to take at 175. I have no problem with him fighting KOvalev either, I'm not of the opinion that established top fighters have to prove themselves over again moving up in weight, especially when they become the best challenger immediately upon doing so. Stevenson isn't going to fight KOvalev, who else is there, why not Ward if he actually wants it?
