    I'd fancy Barrett in the rematch. He's improved a lot since then and has been mixing it at a good level. Especially if it's Ronnie's first bout back, I'd have no issue picking Zelfa. If you look at the RBR on here most people only had Clarke winning by a round or so, it wasn't a one side contest by any stretch of the imagination, and it was really Barrett's first test.

    I just don't see the hype in barrett. He was dominated and hurt by a featherweight yes he pulled it out the bag that night. But Clark knows he can hurt him and take whatever comes back. I think he wud walk him down. Barrett wud hav to box on the move wud b a hard night for him. Saying that also we don't know what the layoff as done to clark. I hope it happens and the bookies make barrett favourite. Will deffo have a cheeky bet on clark.

    Good stuff. Be interesting to see how he does after a long lay off.

    35 years old and 2 years away from the ring... far from ideal.

    I could see the rematch happening , Barrett’s team will see this as good opportunity to right thst wrong and will probably feel Clarke is not as dangerous as he was with the time out and his age! Just depends if Clarke wants to build up to a big fight like thst or he feels he ready to mix it straight away!

    Would imagine his management will want to get him out once before taking the rematch if it’s available
