    Opinions divided. I think Macklin is by far the better looking fighter (no gayness) but Barker is taller, rangier, bigger, perhaps stronger?

    It's a good bout, depends on a lot. I hope Macklin can really handle the 160 weight and has a plan A and B in him. If true, then I think he can win.

    False rumour. He is apparently going back there to train for a bit for this fight.

    all the barker boys seem to forget the hell that a very one dimensional fighter (in belgechem) gave barker he was lucky to get the decision ...
    all this bollox about barker havin an off night is goin to be shown for what it is when he meets macklin ...
    macklins skills are just as good as barker and i think he beats him in four or five
    cant wait for this fight

    keep thinking that. I hope you boy macklin isnt thinking the same otherwise hes in for a long night.

    Whats more than one dimensional about Macklin??? and where are these skills you speak off as I havent seen them.

    Macklin deserves to derail the barker hype train more than lee and sure he will. Counting down the days.

    I forgot - you are from London and your two favourite fighters are ****-en-eeees!

    Of course I support Irish fighters - I'm Irish - doesnt mean I think they are the best or will win every fight, there is a big difference in supporting and nutthugging!
