Barker vs Geale FOTY

[FinitoElDinamita]

I know this fight was special to a British fan but I don't think its anywhere bear a foty.

Miura-thompson kind of flew under the radar but I thought it was better than the barker fight.

Exactly. Was a good fight but I don't think it was even fight of the weekend let alone the year. I though Mollo-Spzilka 2 was more entertaining then the Geale fight.

Again its horses for courses. The Mollo fight was entertaining and a bit of a laugh but both guys are toilet. Barker Geale was a better fight all around for me. The fact that someone didnt get smeared across the canvass further endorses it rather than detracts from it.

NO!! The fight was boring. The talk AFTER the fight was more exciting than the fight itself.

Better to be quiet and thought a fool then open your mouth and remove all doubt.

It was a great fight. Both guys gave it their all. Geale was classier in spots, but Barker had a little bit more drive to win. I thought Barker edged the fight, but it was close and could have gone either way.

What a card! Martinez-Romero, Kovalev-Cleverly, and Geale-Barker -- all three of them were fun fights.

I wouldn't say this was fight of the year. I agree though that it was an excellent scrap between two solid, top ten middleweights.

Barker getting up from that liver shot and going on to the win the fight should be his career-defining moment. What a terrific display of courage and heart.

It was an engrossing fight, but these guys were too limited for it to be a real FOTY. There was too much clinching for a start. What made it exciting, was the KD, and the comeback. That alone doesn't make it better than the Bradley fight which was far more exciting.

Anybody saying this is a boring fight doesn't know boxing.

There were so many great fights past weekend that I totally forgot about that one. Yup, I also thought the Molla fight was better than Geale-Barker.

It was the best weekend of the year in Boxing that's for sure.
