That wasnt an answer to the question but sounds like a fair way of understanding why some are so hyped
Fair play for being able to answer a question many for some reason feel uncomfortable about answering
Barrera does not appear overly fast, but does seem to evade punches well and has confidence which I think is a big thing
Sullivan Barrera is a mediocre fighter and has ZERO chance of winning Ward turned down Shabranskyy, who would give him a far more difficult fight
Kovalev, Stevenson, Ward, Braehmer, Beterbiev, E Alvarez, Browne, Chilemba, Cleverly, Fonfara, Shabransky, Pascal, Gvozdyk
Ramos was undefeated. Cordoba was a solid contender. I don't see that type of win on Barrera's resume so far. The Murat stoppage was BS ref stoppage. Barrera would have won anyway though. Barrera hasn't faced a top 10 guy yet though.
I'm an avid boxing fan, but I won't be watching Ward-Barrera tonight. Ward will hold, clamp and hug so much it'll seem like a gay encounter. The only way to stay awake during a Ward fight is to take meth, I don't want to do that, so better if I don't watch.
