Darren Barker had a bit of Carl Froch about him in his fight last night, by that I mean that little bit of viciousness sometimes missing from fighters. They were saying his attack method was "spiteful". I enjoyed it.

It also helped to solidify in my mind that of the domestics, Lee, Murray, Macklin, etc, that Barker is just that little bit better.
Barker needs to step up. Only fights bums and takes no risks. He ain't gonna get another shot at a world title unless he ups his game. I still put Macklin ahead of him
What has Macklin done that Barker hasn't? Their opposition is on a level playing field.
Alcine, Sturm, far better then anyone on Barkers rec. seriously look at the bums on Barkers rec, Hope, Belggecham Buyler ate the best of them. Even Varin and Asikainen are better then what Barker has faced. Barker didn't deserve his shot at Martinez and he won't get another shot if he doesn't step up
