Sky Sports- Darren Barker v Felix Sturm - SATURDAY NIGHT CHAT THREAD

[smashup]

I'm pretty sure Sturm smashing him in the head probably did have something to do with it.

Barker had nothing to lose when he won the title and I think he felt the pressure last night as he had everything to lose.
Big shame about the hip dislocation and shit timing but just from that first round you got the feeling Felix was on one and would have stopped him anyway.
He came out swinging and Barker just looked clueless with no idea how to deal with him.
Sturm did land some heavy shots in the 1st.
Don't see the rematch happening at all.
Do you know what Barker earned for this ?

Barker got a million quid. It had the feel of his retirement fight from the minute they announced it.
