I've just finished part 2 of Darren Barker's interview for Jo.co.uk's TKO boxing podcast. I have to say what an excellent interview, a really good in-depth conversation about the highs and lows of his career. From his amateur days, to winning a world title, he talks about the loss of his brother and the effect it had on him and how he managed to get back on track after such a huge loss. Barker's gone up in my books, very humble guy. The interviewer does a great job too. If you get the chance check it out, just reminds you of what some of these fighters go through to get to the top.

I met Darren the day after he lost to Sergio Martinez, really nice guy and had time to chat considering the circumstances
