    If Barker is competitive it could open up more big fights on HBO for him. Seeing that the Chavez Jr fight is now dead in the water for him, he might as well take the fight.

    Its gas when its a British fighter,ye say go for it ,great opp,etc.
    But when Andy Lee was mentioned ye said he wasn't up to it or hes not proven,will get kod after 4 etc.
    Fact is Barker is out of his league here and is way underproven then Andy Lee,but what do i know im only a mad Irishman!!

    Golovkin can beat him imo. That's about it really.

    Barker inside 4 rounds if he comes to fight, UD12 if he runs.
