    These days of instant social media if you're at the top and don't look near perfect you will get hated on very quickly and the hate will just multiply after that.

    Not ridiculous. My scorecard was maybe off by ONE round. So maybe not even but Barker won at least 4 rounds. 9-1? Now that's some bull****. :rofl

    Barker was winning 9-1, till Martinez got a lucky punch, Martinez now lowered from #2 p4p, to #54 p4p, bum status after this fight. Martinez should stop ducking Hopkins, Chavez jr, Bute, and Haye.

    first of all man, Mayweather lost a lot of rounds to de la Hoya, Pac was just chasing Mosley the entire fight, Mosley did not win one round against Pac.

    martinez does have a decent resume, he just had an off night but he got the job done.

    Barker was schooling Martinez and had the lead on my card at the time of his quit job.

    I don't think so at all. Barker threw like 14 punches a round.

    Kind of hard to land against a taller fighter who stands there with his gloves in front of his face without throwing all night. Almost every time Barker threw, he ate a good punch or two. People are being way too hard on Martinez. What was he supposed to do?

    I'll admit I bought into the hype recently. I had been skeptical at first, but before I knew it, fan boydom took over. :oops::oops:

    at 168? No chance. I'd expect him to get the crap kicked out of him against the bigger guys.

    Wrong.

    Barker was landing his jab and right of the jab all night on Sergio. How do you think Sergio's nose and eyes got busted up if Barker wasn't landing?
