Pirog vs Barker off

He should have taken the Lee fight on HBO :verysad.

Khurtidze has the WBC middleweight silver title which could give him a better chance of getting this Chavez fight, should he beat him. Chavez could pretend Barker was his mandatory, thus further duck Martinez.

 

i didnt even relise they were scheduled to fight.

 

They weren't. They were just linked, nothing was signed.

 

If Geale gets past Adama next week then they should be trying to get him over. To much to factor in to a Chavez fight atm, people say ah yeah Barker is technically more gifted and would beat Chavez soundly. Never works like that. It would be a top rank show, probably infront of thousands of mexicans. Barker would have to be very dominant to win. Geale is the better option if they can get him over.

 

do you not think hes good enought to get a ko overseas?

 

I can't see him KOing Chavez, he'll make it close and could edge it but Chavez will get the decision like with Zbik.

Geale I haven't seen a lot of but I'd be surprised if that one wasn't close too.
