    ... nobody was able to duck Ward since 2011, because he didn't fight.
    ... Wait: Mayweather, maybe, at 160...

          That would be a solid first fight at 175 for Ward. I haven't seen a lot of Barrera but from the little I've seen, he seems to be a better fighter than Caparello, Agnew and Mohammedi.

            ... Wikipedia listed the Barrera vs Murat fight as a "IBF eliminator" bout...
            Does it mean that if Ward would win such a fight would make him Kovalev's mandatory?

              I would think so but not certain. With the WBO, if a mandatory is beaten in a tune-up, the winner of the fight gets the shot, which is how Leapai got a shot at Wlad from winning a fight where he was supposed to be the stay-busy opponent. Have the WBC said yet if Granados is getting the mandatory shot that Imam was in line for?

              I'm trying to think of a time when something similar happened with the IBF as it seems each org has their own rules for this kind of thing.

                Not a bad fight....

                If GGG made a fight like this he'd get slayed by NSB though

                  What's up with that Sig/Avi? Thought you were supposed to honor thy bet? Wasn't Icha up next?

                    he didn't get slayed for fighting unranked Gabe Rosado or willie Monroe jr.


                    HBO and his fanatics don't care who he fights as long as he has a great chance to win by ko

                      I'm not familiar with Barrera. What's the word on him?
