19-3 amatuer record. And while I never had a busted ear drum, I know what I saw. I saw a fighter pretty much say "fuck it. I had enough" and call it quits after a slapped that was half blocked. I actually thought Eddie Cotton was gonna give him a pillow the way he rolled over on his back and covered his face with his gloves. He could of got up even if he did have a busted ear drum. Carl Froch claims he had a busted ear drum going into the Jean Pascal fight. Shannon Briggs busted his ear drum in the first round and still took his beaing like a man from Vitali. Jorge Barrios let everybody know he had busted his ear drum in the 6th against Acelino Freitas and still went to war with him. So don't tell me Barker clouldn't of got up from that glancing slap if he really wanted too
