    How do you think this fight would go?
    IBF MW champ Hopkins against undefeated European champ Barker.

    What do you think?

    I'm assuming you mean the mid-90's version of BHop in a mythical match-up against Barker. Well, to be honest i've only seen a few short youtube clips of Barker, and he seems to be a very energetic, dynamic fighter, but i do see quite a few little mistakes, especially defensively. But a young BHop, who i have seen a lot of, was an absolute beast. Ferocious, tireless, versatile and ofcourse very allround technically. I don't see a guy like Barker who's still relatively untested and far from flawless last against that version of Hopkins.

    Bernard would make this look easy, Barker is nowhere near that sort of level at middleweight.

    a prime hopkins would eat him alive but right now? Barker probably as Bhop is a boring dirty man handler rather than a boxer.plus im a barker fan so i would say that!!!

    barker is a euro fighter at tops. if he fights for a middleweight championship and wins then it shows how weak the divsion is

    however he would beat hopkins by a landslide
