HBO Boxing tonight features the last stop on the road to this fall's biggest fight. In November, Andre Ward takes on Sergey Kovalev in a highly anticipated Light Heavyweight match-up. At a time when you have lopsided PPV fights like Canelo Alvarez vs. Liam Smith and Manny Pacquiao vs. Jessie Vargas, Kovalev vs. Ward is exactly the fight you want to see, and it's on the way, we hope. Tonight's fight is the last stop on that path - a showcase fight for Ward as he takes on Alexander Brand. Kovalev had his own showcase fight a few weeks ago, defeating Isaac Chilemba.
