Darren barker vs Matthew macklin 18th of sep, who wins?

his stoppage was more down to being exhausted and having nothing left!! it was a brutal fight and he gave everything in it. win or lose he showed heart and determination. i hope this will not be a factor for barker but just saying it could be

 

fair point. just never understand the arguement of someone having no heart if they havent been in the trenches. accepted you wernt saying that but others have been.

 

Fair enough

 

Where did you get that information?

 

He pulled it out of his ass like all the other crap he spouts.

Barker has been up for it for years. If he wins this he can become a big star in London.

 

Top Rank's Arum told ESPN.com that Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.'s next fight, the one before he's expected to face former middleweight champ Kelly Pavlik, will take place Sept. 11 rather than Sept. 25, as originally planned, so it fits into trainer Freddie Roach's schedule. "We had to change it because the following Monday (Sept. 13) Freddie will go to the Philippines to start training Manny (Pacquiao)," Arum said.

Doesn't look like Roach will be in Macklins corner.

 

Macklin late KO after Barker starts strong

 

Will be a great fight. On a separate note Sturm is making his comeback in October. It could be anyone really but I understand from a blog Andy Lee did, he may be up for consideration against team Sturm who are now free from Universum!

If by any chance Lee won that I'm pretty sure Macklin or Barker could get a shot too.
But very unlikely I would say.

 

Eh ? Whats london got to do with anything ?

 

Hi regards the comments allegedly quoted from Mathew Macklin in regards to Steve Collins . Mathew has asked me to inform u that the words Steve collins was not fit to lace his boots were never said from him or Freddie Roach the journalist involved has apologised to Mathew . The point Freddie was saying was Mathew was more skilful technically in Boxing terms as Steve was known for his strength toughness and will to win which put together with his style proved very successful .
Roll On September 18th ! :bbb

 

That makes sense, it didn't sound like something Macklin would say.

 

thanks for clearing that up Joseph!

Sligeach Abú!
