The Offical ITV4 Saturday Night Boxing Thread

Darren Barker is very good I think, certainly European level. Very very tidy, had a Chelsea badge on his shorts to, and Joe Cole at ringside-good man. Paris stopped it to early as usual, that guy just doesn't allow anybody to get hurt in the boxing rings. He's the kind of guy you'd want reffing your Son's fight, but not a boxing fan. Barker looks tiny at middleweight. Even on fight night, tough break. His body is going to let him down ultimately, he is marooned at Middleweight but the shouldn't really be there. Not a scrap of fat on him either, crazy.

yeah. an enjoyable card. Impressive performances from Barker and Fury, hopefully there'll be big things to come from both of these guys. Oh and the ref was a cast-iron cunt.

Another great card by ITV4, they ain't all got skills, but they try. :lol1: They are masters at finding some over hyped prospect, and building him up mercilessly until we all turn into salivating dogs wanting him to get knocked the f.uck out.

I even forgot the Khan 1 smh the guy just needs to stop

the worst stoppage I have ever seen in Calzaghe V Manfredo. that was Terry O'Connor who was the ref was it not>?

Newbie here! Watched the boxing there now myself, think Barry said any Middleweight in Britain as opposed to the world, but could be wrong. Just wanted to say I was impressed by Tyson Fury. First time i've seen him and you would think for a guy that size, six nine ****, his hand movement and ability would be more clumsey than anything, like most of the British Heavyweights these days. Even though the calibre of fighter was poor, he didnt run in and throw blow after blow, he looked for openings was smart and when the time came landed those body shots, which looked as though a few ribs could have been damaged, he hit four clean shots! And each time you could see the pain in the guys face! And to think hes still 20 (looks about 40 lol) but was very impressed.

Im fed up with that fat prick Paris ruined the Rogan fight as well. he and Cortez need to take a ****ing hike mate,

I think Barry Mc Guigan said that punch Darren Barker landed would have knocked down any MW in the world. f.uckin el, Barker looks about 108 after re-hydrating, those MW's are too big for him.

Worst ref I have seen ever. He is a complete joke. Why do fighters still agree to him officiating their fights. He must be on the take or something, rediculous, Mc dermott is pissed in the interview.

Dave Paris ruins yet another fight. Dave Parris is terrible. Mcdermott could have continued. He was up for the count and looked relatively steady. However I reckon he would have been ko'd in the next round. Parris shouldn't allowed to be referee another fight. He is incompetent.

Shouldn't have called it off despite wobbly legs Dave Paris ruins yet another fight.

I know, then Duke Mc kensie said Barker and Mc dermott were just a little bit off the the likes of pavlik et al. Barker has skills, but come on now. i missed that wow Duke has he been on the sauce?:alcoholic

Nice performance by Barker.

Shouldn't have called it off despite wobbly legs

Just said Abraham is the best MW good God! I know, then Duke Mc kensie said Barker and Mc dermott were just a little bit off the the likes of pavlik et al. Barker has skills, but come on now.

I can't watch it cos my sisters are watching Britain's got talent and all the other saturday night tv. :puppy_dog Same situation here, get over to the ITV website you can stream it

Just said Abraham is the best MW good God!

Barker is a very decent boxer gave a boy from my gym a hell of a shiner

What the f.uck is that belt Darren barker has, the one with rainbow colours, is that the british 'gay pride' title?

:rofl: John Fury - "anyone who knows boxing knows this is the man" Derek Chizora says on Belshaw "I could have beaten that guy with my eyes closed"
