    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.
