    In my opinion the likes of Murray Macklin and Barker are wasting a golden opportunity to make good money and raise their profile. They should be getting it on with each other while the opportunity is there. Loads of fighters over the years would of loved to have had rivals these guys have.

    I have a lot of time for Darren Barker. Always have. We were on the same flight from Gatwick to Las Vegas for the Mayweather vs Cotto bill and had a good chat. For me alongside George Groves they are the best English born technical fighters right now.

    I like Darren, he seems a proper nice bloke. I will be going to his fight in September. Hope he nicks a world title and earns a bit of money.

    Would love to see Sky try to do a round robin tournement with Barker, Macklin, Murray and Lee. 3 fights each why not.

    I would say Golivkin and Chavez Jnr are a level above the rest right now and Martinez is ahead of them.
