Chavez Jr. is saying darren Barker is the frontrunner to fight him on June 22nd

Brutally honest, Hearn states that the risk is too high for Barker-Golovkin:


A bit strange how he refers to Proksa, right?

Apparently, Junior wants a 164 pound catchweight, and that is why Macklin so far has turned it down.

Good thing too.

If Barker can make good money he should do it but as you have all said I would prefer him to fight our local fighters but if not that then fight Geale or even GGG.

Catchweights can't mean shit to someone who routinely comes in at a drug-aided weight of more than 20 pounds over the weigh-in limit.

Just move up already. Jose will probably just create another division.

Lot of fighters claim they want the big fights. This is a good chance to see if some actually mean it. Outside of Martinez, there is no bigger fight for Barker than Chavez. He should do everything he can to make the fight happen. He won't win. But he'll be paid well for the ass kicking he'll get

Tam, bit of a strange question but did you used to talk to Michael Jennings from time to time on MySpace?

This is a stupid comment. Why should he try everything to have a fight where the playing field wont be level. Aside from it being in Mexico where he aint getting a decision, Chavez is a known weight cheat and I also think he is on the juice, after the Lee fight he refused to take a drug test. Why doesnt Chavez fight someone his own weight? Because hes shit and knows he wouldnt have a chance against anyone good at super middle.

Darren needs to tell this schlep that he will cross the pond to Vegas. That is it. This twerp just had a ban released ffs. On solid ground Barker kicks the shit out of him.

Some muthafukkas just don't know shit about boxing. Yet that don't stop them from embarrassing themselves with idiotic comments. Chavez tested for the Lee fight

Take the test? Chavez did - Dan Rafael Blog - ESPN

And this comes from Rafael. A muthafukka who's never had a problem bad mouthing Chavez before.

Doesn't matter where they fight. Barker gets knocked the fuck out. Muthafukkas always talking about Chavez resume. And overall it is weak. But it's got some decent names on it. Who the fuck has Barker ever beaten that muthafukkas think he's so good? His best win is probably over Kerry fuckin Hope

You have to bear in mind that Proksa is a Pole based in England, he has no fanbase, following and would never establish one here. He's never headlined a show and got beat by Kerry Hope on his first big TV outing. That's why he was chucked in with GGG after getting "exposed"

Not to be patronising - but it's just about what you sell in this business

I hear that, but at the end of the day, he is still Proksa's promoter. It sounded borderline disparaging.

Yeah... cause Proksa doesn't offer him anything anymore. He's a promoter.
