    Over at the scene. Barker should fight Geale instead.

    He's not ready for Sergio. This wouldn't do him any good at all. He be better getting another bout in or go straight for Geale.

    Barker is two levels beneath Sergio who is Elite World Class IMO and doesn't possess the equalizer nor the skills to win the fight and i'm a big fan of his.

    "Not ready" isn't the problem.

    He along with most other middleweights around today, will never be ready for Sergio.

    :happy GO MARTINEZ!!!

    Barker will give it a go, but has no chance. He's too straight forward, Martinez would stop him within five IMO.

    I would of course prefer Martinez to not fight Barker, it's a waste of everybodys time.

    Yep once Sergio ups the gears he start making Darren fall short and land crushing counters. As you say he's straight ahead and likes to let shots go and by the term ''not ready'' in a previous post i made shows my point. He throws some shots that look great against limited opposition go do that against Martinez and you may well become a reconstruction PWilly for the night but just a whiter and with hair.

    If he had a few fights with world class company under belt i wouldn't mind so much. He's not going to win but he could see himself through rounds etc. Things you pick up in better company. Fight him now and it be pretty embarrassing for lad. He's a good technician but Sergio as i stated earlier is Elite World Class.

    Edit: I don't really want Darren to ever fight Sergio...but fighting him at his peak when your still green at top level is madness.
