Andre Ward vs. Sullivan Barrera RBR

Fair play to Ward he won the fight, wasn't remotely close from start to finish but I saw nothing there to believe Ward goes anywhere near Kovalev anytime soon.

 

Ward is a master of the craft. Love watching him.

 

I got it a shutout, should be a wide decision 12-0 119-107 Ward

 

Shutout an unbeaten heavy handed technically excellent #1 Cuban in his first proper fight at 175. Truly greatness personified.

 

:dead:dead

 

Cracks me up when people are talking well about wards performance thr ggg fanboys are like "let's push pause guys this is Sullivan Barrera were talking about"

Gotta hand it to these guys....lots of nerve and little shame

 

Rd 1 10-9 Ward
Rd 2 10-9 Ward
Rd 3 10-8 Ward
Rd 4 10-9 Ward, close.
Rd 5 10-9 Ward
Rd 6 10-9 Ward
Rd 7 10-9 Ward, close
Rd 8 10-8 Barrera(had him winning slightly prior to deduction, could have easily been a Ward round though as it was close)
Rd 9 10-9 Ward
Rd 10 10-9 Ward
Rd 11 10-9 Ward
Rd 12 10-9 Ward

118-108 Ward

 

Not really sure what you saw in him. I was never impressed by Barrera.

 

He looks good 10 to 15 lbs heavier, or its my sight lol

 

Ward's Greco-Roman clinching has improved

 

Exactly Barrera would arguably be one of GGGs best wins. Those fools have no shame. As if GGGs resume is littered with a and b level fighters.
