    Seen it.

    Now this is a good fight. Sullivan Barrera vs Igor Mikhalkin on 12-12 in the United States. Winner will be Kovalev's IBF mando possibly for a fight around April-May after Kovalev destroys Pascal for a second time.

    Sullivan Barrera (16-0) is a huge guy from Cuba. Igor Mikhalkin (17-1) is a highly technical, come forward type of fighter from Russia.

    Thoughts?

    I'm happy about it, Beterbiev and Haymon's little sly trick of ducking Kovalev to become his mandatory to out pursebid Duva and make him drop the belt because he doesn't want to break his HBO contract didn't work.....good.

    It does seem Artur could have pushed back just a little.
