    Lees more talented than barker. I cant think of an area that Barker trumps Lee in.

    He might scrape by Duddy but there is nothing to suggest he'd even beat Lee, less to mind beat him easily. I really hope Lee fights Barker sometime. Did you know Lee convincingly beat Barker as an amateur?

    Amateurs and pros are not the same game.

    amatuer background has nothing to do with it, lee doesnt have the heart or stamina to be world class, barkers got the beter ring generalship

    He has better stamina and ring generalship than Lee? Is that why he struggled so badly in the the fight with Benghecham. Hes more dimensional imo.

    Shut up you ya idiot! Direct comparisons are not an indicator of how good a fighter is! So what if Lee mauled Barker in the am and so what if Lee handled Belgacham much easier than Barker did, that means nothing whatsoever.

    What I would prefer to do is make up some basely, convoluted, spurious matrix and use that and then draw on intangibles such 'heart'!!

    Sure didnt Lee quit on his stool against a bum that is above the class of anyone that Barker has ever fought!

    Who brought Duddy into it?

    Barker would tattoo Duddy something rotten but would have his hands full with Lee.

    Would be good if some of these fights actually happened - until Macklin and Barker are touching gloves I'll be sceptical.

    Macklin has pulled out again. Fighting Winky Wright April 9th in Las Vegas on the Marquez vs Morales undercard.

    Fair play its probably a higher payday and will get him closer to a world title fight. Still very disappointed.

    It's a shame but I don't blame him.
