    Lewison wins in the fourth!

    What an uppercut to finish with, a real belter :lol:

    Lewison needs to work on his conditioning, but he definitely has some skills; through some lovely shots.:happy

    Round 2 - Complete switch up from Hope this round. He's looking to go toe to toe, gets a warning from the ref foe something (low blow, leading with the head?). Barker just tucked up and is getting his boxing going and now he's landing some punches. Barker round.

    1-1

    Barker looking really fast, very sharp.

    I just think he is showing more quality at the moment at least.

    I don't mind Hope, he has no power though at all.

    Round 3 - Barker looks a lot more confident now. He's looking for and landing that right hand. Not sure what Hope's plan is here. Bounces around a lot but doesn't throw anything meaningful. Barker is the stronger guy and as Watt says is standing his ground looking to land big punches. It's all just gradually coming back for Barker, even lands a left hook. Hope had NOTHING.

    2-1 Barker

    Round 4 - As said, Hope's lack of power is allowing Barker to do as he pleases. Barker's punching with authority, works the body oh and RIGHT HOPE DECKS HOPE! Up before 8, Barker corners him, lands a few shots and the towel comes in.

    Barker TKO4 Hope

    Quality from Barker, impressive considering his extended absence from the ring.

    Barker looked very sharp and hungry in there. Nice to see that kind of return from injury going at it..

    Barker looked really sharp tonight.

    Amazing considering the lay off.

    Sent a real statement out to the other British contenders, for me on that performance he is at the top of the domestic tree.

    Chuffed for him, he has had a shitty time, good on him :good
