Sullivan Barrera has agreed to fight unbeaten #2 Artur Beterbiev in an IBF light heavyweight title eliminator. Barrera’s promoters at Main Event announced the news on Friday, along with Beterbiev. The winner of the Beterbiev vs. Barrera fight will be the mandatory challenger to fake IBF 175lb champion Andre Ward. Great news. Thoughts?
Yeah, fight is happening on the undercard of Thurman-Garcia March 4th. I expect Beterbiev to win, but I was wrong last type I picked against Barrera. Granted I didn't expect Shabranskyy to fight terribly.
We will see if Barrera's chin will hold up and we will see if Beterbiev is skilful enough to beat Barrera convincingly.
Pursebids today! Is it certain that it would end up on next month's card, if the pursebids are now and we aren't sure if it's even Haymon that will be promoting the fight?
Damn this Beterbiev suffers from the fact that no one wants to fight him. What a brave guy Barrera is!
Cant wait. Beterbiev brings it every time. Complete brute Like y'all say huge props to Barrera. That is one brave man
