If this is the one you've been waiting for, you're not alone.

The Saturday night light heavyweight title match between three-belt champion Sergey Kovalev and former 168-pound boss Andre Ward is widely considered the year's most compelling fight.

It pits two men in the primes of their careers - Kovalev turned 33 in April, Ward is 32 for another month -- who have a 60-0-1 record with 41 knockouts in a combined run that spans 19 years and has yielded five sanctioning body crowns across two weight classes.
