    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing @DannyFlexen - is he as boring as Darren Barker? If so, pass

    Darren barker ‏@DarrenBarker82
    @stevemaxboxing luckily for me Im not in this TOUGH sport to impress you but to provide for my family and I'm succeeding in doing that!

    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing @DarrenBarker82 - imagine what you could've done that night if you wouldve taken some chances and tried to actually win?

    Darren barker ‏@DarrenBarker82
    @stevemaxboxing it's a lot more difficult actually getting in the ring then it is writing about it so whatever you say hot shot!

    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing
    @DarrenBarker82 - as long as your never going to be back in American airwaves.... good.

    Darren barker ‏@DarrenBarker82
    @stevemaxboxing well that's not what I'm hearing so again luckily for me you won't have to watching or report on the fight!

    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing
    @DarrenBarker82 - no lucky me, I don't have to watch you, actually...

    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing
    @DarrenBarker82 - don't disagree, but still, I'm glad I never have to see you again in the States. Now ,Macklin....

    Darren barker ‏@DarrenBarker82
    @stevemaxboxing well when me and macklin finally get it on I will find you and laugh in your face when I beat him which is a certainty!

    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing
    @DarrenBarker82 - which is fine, but he's back fighting in the States on a big show because of his effort vs Martinez, I applaud him

    Darren barker ‏@DarrenBarker82
    @stevemaxboxing and hbo want me back out but I had an hip opoeration which has kept me out! Plus macklins with dibella (a US promoter!)

    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing
    @DarrenBarker82 - HBO wants you back? Really? Says who? You and Martinez did a low rating- that's a fact

    Darren barker ‏@DarrenBarker82
    @stevemaxboxing it's fact iv sat down with them! I was an unknown quantity before that fight but not anymore!

    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing
    @DarrenBarker82 - lets hope on behalf of US audiences that's not true

    Darren barker ‏@DarrenBarker82
    @stevemaxboxing shame cos DAZZLING DARREN "BAKER" is going to pollute your airways again! And I'm so happy that angers you! #TeamBarker

    Darren barker ‏@DarrenBarker82
    @GatecrasherUA @stevemaxboxing keep typing "keyboard warrior" I'm just going to check my bank balance to cheer myself up!

    Steve Kim ‏@stevemaxboxing
    @DarrenBarker82 @GatecrasherUA - again, good luck with that, I'm sure you will. I just hope its not on HBO's dime in our country

    Yeah saw this in the GF last night, Absolutlely disgusting stuff from Kim.

    Whatever people think of Barker's display he was troubling a top level operator, bludgeoned the nose of him and took rounds off of him. A damn site more then former world champions who Kim probably talks to with a lot more respect..

    He did well, guys like Kim don't understand boxing enough to realize how hard it is to just throw punches when the other guy is so quick, powerful and accurate. Barker's effort was very good IMO considering the jump in levels..

    Steve Kim is a ****wit of a human being who likes to say "I'm hearing that..." when relating to boxing gossip. He has Twitter beefs all the time and loves the fact he has so many followers. Bottom line is he's a decent writer but most people think he's a ****ing ******.

    I can't see how anyone can criticize Barker's performance. He was given next to no chance, and ended up giving Martinez his hardest fight since he became a P4P entrant. Kim's talking a load of bollocks. Lost whatever credibility he had.

    Kim is an absolute disgrace the way he talks to fighters. He is totally over rated as a writer, the guy is an egomaniac. Barker, despite extreme provocation showed a lot of class in dealing with that gimp.

    Kim is a very respected and well travelled boxing writer,who has an opinion just like you.I too was appalled at how very ordinary Barker was in his fight with Sergio.
    I would be shocked if Barker had another opportunity on HBO or any major American TV network after his "effort" against Martinez.

    Mate, you've clearly only ever seen him fight once, in a bout vs one of the top pound for pound fighters in the world he was clearly way, way out of his league yet still won 3-5 rounds, frustrating the champion and popping his nose and giving him his most challenging fight in a while.

    How appallingly average :roll:
