may i ask, how does everyone knows these fighters except me?
Do they visit your local Pub, or pop in your local grocery store time to time......because ive never seen them before. They ain't in the newspapers or anything (not that i read them anyway) and i dont see them on the tele..
Maybe i'm sounding like a louzy boxing fan, but who is David Barnes?

And if you missed that he was one of the main support fights when Ricky fought KT.

Wel Emma cool click for talkin about somebody that i want 2 talk about. I posted about him on here time ago but got hardly any replies. I think he has the potential to be a world champ. Technicaly he is very good and moving down to light welter is a good move. After watchin him draw against Ali Numbembe, i was very surprised that they put him in with Joshua Okine straight after. Numbemebe and Okine are very very similar fighters so it didn't make sense to put him with that style of fighter right after struggling to a draw against Numbembe. He's moved up to number 3 at light welter in the British rankings and he should push on for a European title shot in the next 8 month or so. His style is very eye catching and he is certainly IMO no less talented then Junior Witter....all be it, a lot younger with less experience.

someone told me when he drew with ali he stormed off in a bad temper and threw things round his dressing room.

ahhh...yeah i remember! He was the guy who fought that weird african guy in the 4 round match.
He's a good solid fighter with really good skills, me thinks he will make it in the big time....I was really impressed with him, good luck to David. We need more brits to make an impression on the americans.

By the way, reffereing to your other post did you mean Muhammad Ali?

[emma]

lol no i meant ali numbemebe.yeah hes nice david i met him at nottingham arena at the jennings muttley fight,real nice fella,good looking too.lol

[The_One77]

well then, next time i meet David Barnes....I'll tell him i've got a good friend on saddoboxing.com who's interested in meeting up with him again, and also he was silly to have never taken a chance to spend more time with that nice girl called emma he met back at the nottingham arena. How's that?

Anyway, checking up on his record now it seems like he'll have to have a rematch with a fella called Joshua Okine.....a tko loss must be quiet a setback for his career.

Well i know David Barnes to the extent if i bumped in to him we would have a chat i have met a few times through a boxing friend.

I think he has a style that would give anyone problems, but has he got the heart??

That's the question, as many boxers have found out talent alone means Jack, i have seen him spar and he is quick and slick as anyone.

It's hard to say if he makes it to the top, but i do think on any given night he could trouble anyone.

because you are either born with it or not, time will tell if he can pull through difficult situations.
Times when his body hurts and he has nothing left, whether he can recover from a difficult knockdown. You could call heart the X-factor of boxing, i haven't seen much of David Barne so i can't really say.
