Barker vs Macklin

its a real 50-50 but i always go with the boxer in these situations. I think a slick boxer would cause a fighter like Macklin so many problems.

Macklin would be down on the scorecards after 6-7 and start going for it. have a bit of success but put to much into getting a stoppage, and eventually be stopped himself by the classy barker.

 

i think people are underestimating macklins boxing skills

it would be a real close fight all right , i like barker he is very slick but i think macklin has got the skills aswel as the punch so macklin would defo catch him at some point and take him out as barker has a dodgey beard

 

for every person under estimating Macklins boxing skill, theres someone who think Barker has a dodgy chin or lacks heart.

 

No doubt Barkers a good skillful boxer, but there still has to be question marks regardin his chin. He was hurt badly against mcintosh, although he did do well come back and hes not really fought anybody who you could regard as a big puncher.

I'd say macklin by late stoppage in a competitive fight.
