    Can "Dazzling" Darren do this people ?

    I'm really hoping he goes out there and finally becomes a World Champion, I think if he's ever gonna achieve his dream then this is the best fight and chance he's ever gonna get to do it!

    How you see it going ?

    I see Barker winning this and surprising alot of people at just how easy he does it, it's a 50/50 fight in most people's eyes and should be a good fight but I fancy Barker strongly.

    For me barker has too much in every department for geale, but by no means certain, should be good and I get to watch it in an Aussie pub surrounded by geale supporters :bbb

    I would not bet on this fight, it's 50/50, although I give Geale a very small edge, and I do mean small!

    Im hoping for Barker but I think alot of British fans are underestimating Geale,hes not gonna be an easy fight and will push Barker to the limit.

    I see a close fight that will go to the score cards and might go either way.

    I'm slightly favoring Geale, only less as before because I thought it would take place down under instead of the US.

    I see this as a very close fight, wich will certainly go to the cards, and expect Geale to get the nod.
    Rooting for Barker though.

    I'd give the edge to Geale but, wouldn't be shocked at all if Barker won. It's going to be a very good, very close fight.

    Barkers gonna bust up Geales face with the jab, Geales defense is **** Barker can control him from the outside with straight punches, got a good height/reach advantage on him. Barker UD

    I think it's a 50/50. I see Barker doing well early in the fight and possibly see Geal niking the later rounds. Who knows though.

    Geale will win this on points i feel, close for the first half and then Geale will steal the later rounds, 8-4, 7-5 kind of scorecards.
