Should glass limbed darren barker call it a day?

Sadly I think he should call it a day

 

So sad, I hope the lad can make it back and get one more world title fight.

All for his brother Gary, Darren wants this bad.

 

He was lucky to get his last title shot, no way will he get another...when he is fit again he should have a nice warm up bout then cash in against Murray or Macklin then call it quits. He has done well in his career and deserves one last good payday.

 

barker can still get to being a world titlist again imo

 

:rofl:rofl

 

is it the same injury?

 

No, the previous injury was his hip.

 

the most trendy form of injury

 

No he wasn't lucky to get a shot, a two time European champion who was unbeaten and only person at that time willing to fight Martinez and his display albeit not to everyone's cup of tea tested Martinez enough for him to heap praise on him and bust Martinez up a little facially :yep. I'd say he was more deserving then others who've contested world title fights.

 

If i was him I'd give it another 12 months, see how it goes and if he is still in the position he is call it a day.

I think it's a shame, IMO he is a better fighter than Macklin yet due to his inactivity and injuries he will never achieve his full potential.

 

He is 'Man of Glass'

Big respect to him.

I hope he continues if his body allows it.

 

When it comes down to it only himself, his doctors and his team now if he can go on.

He has had a bad run with injuries and it doesn't look great, but it could just be bad luck. I used to play rugby (not at elite level and went through 18 months of pure bad luck injury wise, nothing lasting though)

The guy is talented and he doesn't seem stupid he'll know if he can't cut it any more.

In the meantime how about we wish him all the best and support him.
