    Just watched this on Sky +, Barker boxed well with good urgency, very aggressive.

    Impressed by Tyson Fury again, he's learning and improving IMHO and must be on the edge of top 10 British if not already in it.

    Agree with Kid Lucky, Barker looked very comfortable although I think the stoppage was premature.

    Fury was clinical and looks good for the future. Chisora looked a tosser though in his interview. I'm not a fan of McGuigan but he was spot on when he said the minute a fighter says he'll fight someone if the money is right, he's showing fear.

    Why is it so hard to get a decent MC? It's not rocket science!!!

    Mike Goodal, Mark Burdis, Gary Logan, the Hayemaker bloke, they are all poor. This one obviously wants to be Jimmy Lennon Jnr but doesn't have a hope.

    There's got to be better out there.

    Pass is OK which is why I didn't include him in my "poor" list. Personally I think he sounds a little bit boring.

    There's only two British guys that I rate, John McDonald who only does Matchroom bills and a Scottish guy who most people won't have seen, Craig Stephen, he's only done a couple of setanta shows but he's very active in Scotland. I see him at a lot of shows and he's really good.

    Buffer and Lennon are class but this ITV guy is crap.

    Barker looked good. Beatiful straight right to finish it off. Barker-Macklin needs to be made now. Hope Hennessy wins the purse bid so we get it on ITV4. The Euro MW title will soon be vacant as Ghevor is fighting Sturm so the winner could fight for that.

    Not the best of cards

    Belshaw was another bum with a few good numbers on the record
    Barker was very good can't wait if he fights Macklin

    Well Belshaw lost a Decision to Daniel "f***in" Peret FFS. Did we seriously think he had much of a chance. I for one expected him to get his head Jabbed off and stopped in 6, did not expect him to be unable to take the body shots though.
