I don't think we can put all the blame on the trainer here, Check. Between rounds Barkers corner was telling him "you have to let your hands go". They didn't want him to sit there like a stump taking punches. They were asking him to open up.
I got the impression Barker didn't want to open up, because he thought he would be knocked out. Ultimately, that backfired, too.
