    Misread that post! Yeah you're on! I'll take that bet if Barker is up to the challenge.

    not in the US.

    fine me a non irish poster that rates andy lee in the top 10 prospects and I will be shocked.

    I dont rate him and others who know boxing more than me don't rate him.

    You are also rating Barker off one performance.

    I'll agree to that as long as it is made within the next 6 months.

    You seem to have a real dislike for the dazzler.:yep

    Emmanuel Steward :D You do know that there are people who have views on boxing that don't post on this forum right? I am not rating Barker off one performance, I have never been overly impressed with him, he's a good technical boxer but he is nothing special. Let's see who the favourite is if this fight ever gets made, then we will see who is more highly rated.

    I just makes me laugh that you can start a thread in this forum with any title including barkers name and it will turn into a Barker vs Lee thread.

    Honestly you could call it Barker ate shreddies for breakfast and within a page it will be Barker vs Lee.

    Emmanuel Steward is his manager and trainer.....i.e he gets 20% of anything Andy Lee earns.

    Its in his intrest to get him a world title fight. If he makes $500k, Steward gets $100k.

    Try again.

    Hence the smiley face, Lee is rated highly by a lot of people in the know, what do you want names and addresses?

    But seem to be way fewer threads on Lee.
