Comments Thread For: Abel Sanchez: Beating Andre Ward Puts Barrera on Kovalev's Level

[el_locoteee]

This is the same Barrea that beat pascal but was robbed in the Kovalev fight against the French guy right??? If it is this is going to be good that man could fight and he was rocking pascal!!!!!

No that was a different Cuban, Barrera is actually better.

i read where sullivan berrera demanded that slappin' soggy fight him in havana cuba needless to say slappin' soggy declined

In Cuba ?

nah

[aboutfkntime]

Shame that If Sullivan does possess the skills to beat Ward, Ward will illegally clinch and headbutt his way with no warning from the referees because he's American.
Very sad indeed, If this can happen Sullivan needs to be wary of Wards cheating antics because every big fight Ward has been in he has utilized lack of sportsmanship to win them this is the act of someone that isn't a true good athlete.

go on, tell us who.....

who copped it ?

Kessler ?

Or was it Froch ?

The people who would pick Barrera to beat Kovalev, if he beats Ward, are the same people who are picking Ward to beat Kovalev right now.

That's what I was saying.

Personally, I still wouldn't pick Barrera over Kovalev, even if he dominated Ward.

That's because Ward hasn't done anything to make me believe he even deserves a top 20 ranking at 175.

For me, Ward is the one who needs to prove himself, not Barrera.

Boy you crazy! The thing is Ward is young. Even at 175lbs he is probably the most skilled fighter in the division. The only thing Ward needs to prove is that he can handle the bigger fighters at 175lbs. His skill has never been in question and that's basically what Sanchez said. We all know the real reason GGG would fight Froch and Chavez at 168lbs and not Ward! Because he's a master boxer, and won't be a easy fight for any fighter! You just a casual fan and probably watch boxing, but don't study the sport

If you studied the sport you would know that inactivity, a shoulder injury so serious that it required surgery, and a move up in weight to a higher division, can all turn a world champion back into a contender, or even end his career completely. Ward has undergone all 3 of them.

The way he's been acting since he started his come-back with Roc, and the one fight he's had since then, against Paul Smith, all suggest to me that there is something wrong with Ward. He either doesn't have the hunger any more, or he doesn't believe he can hack it at 175.

I can see Ward's lack of power being a real handicap to him at 175. Smith didn't do anything in their fight but stand there to be hit like a heavy bag. Ward cut him and ended the fight, But none of the many punches he landed bothered Smith at all. This is the same Paul Smith who was knocked spark out with one punch by George Groves.

And you don't need to be a boxing expert to know why GGG would have fought Froch and Chavez at 168, but not Ward. Froch and Chavez were real cash cows back then, and Golovkin had no options at 160.

Simple, if you just stop and think about it.

What the fk does their drawing power have to do with the weight ?

LMAO

Kid, a catchweight is to enable a bout between two fighters who would normally never meet because of weight disparity.

It has nothing to do with drawing power you silly kid.

Golovkin was more than happy to fight Froch/Chavez, so the weight was NOT an issue.

Winning on the scales used to be frowned upon and viewed as cowardly.

Team Golovkin know that Ward cannot make 164, and so do you clown.

Keep that spin coming.

If you really believed that you would have said something about it in response to the 1001 posts you've read here saying that Canelo's A side status and drawing power gives him the right to impose a catchweight on Mr 97k, even though they are fighting in the same division.

Now fuck off you hypocrital lying ****.

[Jsmooth9876]

He has tremendous talent and it doesn't make a difference if he's been inactive UNLESS he's fighting Lil G.

Shame on lil g's fan and his coach..

Yeah cause it's GGG fans fault the fight didn't happen..

His coach talks too much obviously...GGG never says anything except he wants to win all the belts at 160. Stop getting mad at people who have no control over anything...

So he didn't say he would fight Froch or Chavez at 168 and on SportsNation w/Kellerman he said he would only fight Ward at 164.

Not mad just stating the facts and keeping it real..

But NOW that Hypekin tried that lame **** on Ward, he can suck a lemon with Canelo.


Hard luck for him.


#karma

#whatcomesaroundgoesaround


And, typical kafkod, what a lying b1tch.

You completely ignore the blatant hypocrisy displayed by Team Hypekin for trying that lame **** on Ward and yet crawling up their own ass when it came to making that same sacrifice for Canelo..... and this is despite the fact that Golovkin said he can beat anyone from 154-168.....

..... and then you try to make me out to be a hypocrite, simply for laughing at Hypekin for having his own lame tactics used against him.

But its not quite the same is it, as Canelo has not been attempting to make fights with middleweights, and Canelo did not say that he can beat anyone from 154-168.

Keep that spinning coming kid

How do I make more room in my sig, for your future lies/hypocrisies ?
