    The fight being this Saturday, how do you think he will do?

    Be nice to see him get the win and move on to fight Macklin next year.

    I think it's a harder fight that the Barker/Matchroom lot seem to think.

    Baker will edge it, getting the decision is another thing. Did I read somewhere there is a rematch clause for a fight in UK ?

    Yeah I think Hearn said that in an interview.

    Sturm on a tight points win or possibly by late stoppage.

    I think Barker will box his socks off and win 115-113 or something along those lines

    Sturm IMO looks past his prime, and Barker has great momentum

    I see Barker keeping Sturm on the end of his jab and winning by UD

    Barker is an awesome guy, and I hope he wins, but there would be some sweet justice of Sturm got a Matchroom type gift out there in Germany. I'll take Sturm on pts in a wider than it should be decision.

    Or a draw...

    Lots of people seem to think this is the sturm of old rather than the Sturm that has looked like absolute **** in his last few fights. Ignoring potential German robberies (although we really can't talk after the Burns decision) Barker needs to win this and win well if he has any genuine aspirations at MW. Again I'd like to see him use his brain and box more although against Sturm it seems to be the roughhouse tactics that take him out of his comfort zone.
