    Kovalev beats him into a pulp and it doesn't go 12 rounds like it did with Ward.

    Anyone's psyche would be considerably damaged after getting robbed twice in two consecutive fights

    Kovalev by KO3 or, Kovalev outboxed the guy that outbox Barrera, he outboxes Barrera convincingly for a few rounds and stops him violently like out cold, after dropping him a handful of times in the process.

    Tough comeback fight for Kovalev, especially if he's having doubts about carrying on. Barerras a very good fighter, would actually be his best win.

    What makes this fight so interesting is that both fighters are in different places in their careers.

    Barrera is on an upswing having beat Shabransky and Joe Smith Jr. His confidence is high.

    Kov lost 2 in a row and hasn't had a KO since mohamedi. Kov had a tough nights work with Chilemba as well.

    I'd definitely pick Kov to win but I'd be nervous

    As long as Kovalev can walk ok after having his b*lls savaged by Ward he should win this ok by late stoppage.

    I think you pretty much have to be Andre Ward to beat Sergey Kovalev.

    Before I think he'd stop him, but I think Barrera is skilled enough to go the distance in a similar way Chilemba did.

    Kovalev by decision. It looks like the fight against Chilemba. Kovey's time is over, but Barrera is older than he is.

    Kovalev by stoppage provided the refs and judges don't let Barerra use his testicles as a speedball.

    Yeah, Tony Weeks claims that testicle blows are legal, but only for his bosses' fighters, such as SOB. I think Bivol, Gvozdyk beat Barrera also..................
