Andre Ward seems to be getting ready to get back to action to face one of the most feared light heavyweights out currently.

Ward whom is largely reported to face Sergey Kovalev has been largely rumored to face IBF light heavyweight number one contender Sullivan Barrera, who is promoted by Kovalev’s promoter, Main Events.

Ward who fought just once in the last two years, destroying Paul Smith in a tune-up fight appears to be looking to test himself at the weight class.

Barrera certainly presents a challenge as tricky Cuban with packs power, but has yet gotten his chance to face the elite of the division.

If this bout does come to fruition, Barrera would face Ward at Oracle Arena in Oakland, CA on March 26th on HBO.
