When
light heavyweight contender Sullivan Barrera, who has defeated
notable opponents such as Joe Smith Jr., Karo Murat and Felix Valera,
finally got a shot at a world title things did not go well.
Barrera
fought his heart out but was outclassed in a 12th-round knockout loss
to Dmitry Bivol in March.
But
Barrera, a former amateur standout on the Cuban national team before
defecting to the United States, hopes to get back on the path to
another title opportunity with a win against "Irish" Seanie
Monaghan in a scheduled 10-round bout on Saturday in the main event
of the Golden Boy Fight Night card (Facebook Watch, 9 p.m. ET) at the
Aviator Sports & Events Center in Brooklyn, New York.
"Of
course, this fight is very significant for my career," said
Barrera, whose only other loss was by decision to Andre Ward in a
nontitle bout in 2016. "I had a misstep [against Bivol], but I
want to get right back in the mix for another title shot. Every fight
is important to me. I know he's tough. When we are brought together,
I will bring my best fight Saturday. I'm trying to get another title
shot and title fight. I think this is my opportunity."
The
fight was originally scheduled for Aug. 18 in Bethlehem,
Pennsylvania, but was postponed on July 31 because Barrera suffered a
right eye injury during a sparring session in preparation for the
fight.
"Better
late than never, right," Main Events promoter Kathy Duva said of
rescheduling the bout. "We have had a long road to making this
fight happen. I'm confident it will be worth the wait. As our fight
poster says, this bout is 'High Stakes' for both Sullivan and Seanie.
This fight is a career make or break.
"The
winner will be right back in the mix for a world championship in the
competitive light heavyweight division. The loser will have a hard
road ahead. With high stakes for the fighters comes high excitement
for boxing fans."
Barrera
(21-2, 14 KOs), 36, who fights out of Miami, will essentially be
fighting on Monaghan's home turf as he has fought at the Aviator
before and is from New York's Long Island.
"I
feel very comfortable there," Monaghan said. "I've seen it
already. I know what the locker room looks like. I know what the
drive there feels like. There's a level of comfort there."
Barrera,
with his amateur pedigree and solid professional résumé, is the
clear favorite in the fight.
"I've
got a lot of respect for him and his team," Monaghan said. "If
you look at his résumé, it speaks for itself. He's one of the most
dangerous guys in the world. There's undefeated guys with
better-looking records than him, who would be a much easier fight
than he is. He's the kind of guy he takes everybody to deep water.
He'll get dropped, get up and fight even harder. That's been on my
mind this entire training camp."
Monaghan
(29-1, 17 KOs), 37, is looking for his second victory in a row since
suffering a disastrous first-round knockout loss when he stepped up
in opposition for the first time against unbeaten contender Marcus
Browne in July 2017 in front of a hometown crowd.
Monaghan
said he is still trying to erase the bad taste in his mouth from that
fight.
"I've
definitely got a chip on my shoulder. I was embarrassed by that
loss," Monaghan said. "Maybe my head got a little bit too
big for myself. I didn't really even think it was possible. I've
never been down in my life in the ring or even in sparring. I got put
down with a shot and was kind of dazed. I learned a big lesson. I'll
never put myself in that position again.
"I'll
gather myself up and keep on fighting. I've seen Barrera do it many
times. It was just a bad experience, but it's probably better to have
that experience going into a fight with Barrera than never having
that experience before. I'm more seasoned and I took what I can from
that, and I moved on."
Said
PJ Kavanaugh, Monaghan's manager: "We understand it is a big
fight and, as everybody knows, the winner will be right back in the
mix for world championship opportunities."
If
Barrera wins he would like his next title opportunity to be a rematch
with Bivol, who is scheduled to defend against former champion Jean
Pascal on Nov. 24.
"Right
now, I'm looking at Seanie. I have my mind focused on him but, yeah,
my goal is a rematch," Barrera said. "I think that night
was not my night. Right now, I'm focusing on Seanie. I'm training
hard for him. I hope in the future I have my rematch with Dmitry."
