Should Barrera foul first and early?

I was thinking low blow Ward... That's the only way he brings Ward to his level.

 

Yes. Something to really upset Ward.

Boxed Ears, for example.

 

If Ward gets close, he needs to assert his size advantage and physical strength. Rough him up and make it dirty once or twice, even though it will inevitably be met with a stern warning.

 

Maybe better tactic would be retaliate instantly after Wards first head butt attack.

 

He should fight dirty

 

He should lowblow Jack Reiss and Ward until both are unconscious.

 

Does anyone know who the referee will be? Can't imagine any opponent agreeing with Reiss as the referee though, in any fight and certainly not fighting Ward :!:

 

I guarantee you it will be him :-(

 

I actually wouldn't mind seeing Ward fouled, I want to see him handle the adversity.

 

If so I probably won't bother staying up.

 

Regardless of what happens Barrera isn't getting a decision in Oakland, never, not happening so yes, he should do everything to annoy, frustrate, hurt and damage Ward.

Let the ref take a couple of points because it isn't going to make much difference if it goes 12.
