Apparently Chris Eubank Jr dropped him in sparring.
No...he is European level at best...Barker will never be a World Champ
Job biscuit (Never)!!!

He is a special talent. Very tidy boxer .
Geale & Quillin would both beat Barker
Neither would last 12 rounds with him.Quote:

It is not unrealistic to suggest we may well have the chance to find out at some point.Quote:

Lets hope so, I think Barker against either guy is an entertaining scrap!Quote:

Barker is talented and I prefer him to fight the domestic world class fighters we have such as Macklin.
Depends who he fights. If he fight Qillin or Golovkin, I think he'll come up short. If he fights Geale, I think he'll win a world title. Really don't buy into Geale at all.

It has no indication to what Barker can go on to achieve. Groves was badly bruised after sparring Eubank jr before the Degale fight. Eubank jr hits hard and if sparring a lot with him chances are you are going to take some lumps at one point.
Do u watch boxing. Quillin make mince meat o barker and Geale wins a wide decision. Suggesting Barker wins inside the distance is moronic. He is fighting bums and still doesn't have a good KO %. He is a European level fighter and will not win a proper world title. Proksa would be a good test for himQuote:
