    I know this is unrealistic because he is with Goldenboy and they won't throw him in with Macklin. But Craig McEwan makes a **** load of sense. His "homecoming" so to speak.

    Surprise surprise a Hennessy fighter is pulled off a Warren bill. If Barker really is as **** hot as he and Hennessy say (seems to have talent but not the toughness for the top level) then he is frittering away his time much like Froch did under Hennessy until he reached his thirties.

    Hold on a sec - didn't Rob Palmer say this only 2 weeks only to come back the same night and tell us it was all a mistake. I suspect commercial reasons were the reason the truth was temporarily put on hold and I can understand that but at the same time....

    Well this sh*t happens. Hopefully Barker recovers and we can watch him later in the year. I'd like to see him in with McEwan if the Macklin fight can't happen any time soon.
