    Hearn will probably make Barker-Hope.

    how long is Barker out for though? Surely Hope will want to be out again some point this summer?

    Yes would make sense. Barker is ranked No.1 by the EBU, Murray is No.2

    He can tell his kids he was european champion and noone can take that from him. However, Martin will take the belt off him without too much difficulty

    Barker's only went into hospital today for his hip operation. Hope will be back out in the summer vs Proszka in rematch.

    Good fight. Murray isn't all that IMO, and if Hope gives another spirited performance it should make for a good clash.

    Murray on points.

    Its not the same hip its the other one apparently on each of his joints he has an imperfection. The first one went and that was the last hip op and now the other one has gone. Apparently a normal person would never need the correction but due to an athletic lifestyle it takes its toll.

    Once this one is done though he shouldnt have any hip problems again

    Not gong to happen, Proksa has claimed that Hope agreed to an immediate rematch and I dont think Hope can pull it off a second time (although it would make my day if he did)

    Hope will most likely lose the rematch then go on to get a shot at the british title

    Murray v Hope is the right call to be honest with you with Murray winning on points in my opinion....

    i think Macklin should step in and fight JCC Jr but i think Martinez will fight him. I think if Macklin fights the way he did against Sturm and the first 6 rounds like he did against Martinez he stands a chance.
