Nah serious im not a fan of barker but hes a decent fighter and this will be his judgment day win or lose but there is just something about this fight that i like and its a long shot i know but i think an upset is always a possibility and barker has skills.

the martinez camp did say they want to take an easy fight in late 2011. chavez jr, manfredo jr, and ishida were all once talked about when discussing martinez's next opponent for oct 1st. barker is 29, undefeated, and a natural middleweight. he isn't that bad of an opponent when considering the fighters they were looking at. hopefully it's an exciting fight. next year though, martinez needs to go after those other ****in belts....

I like Barker, but i think Martinez has got too much experience (And a decent punch) Martinez by comfortable points win or stoppage round 9 or later?

I might add that i'd be delighted to be wrong, and Barker could get off to a bright start, but Martinez will catch up with him.

The problem Martinez will find is that he is a southpaw and he's to dam good for anyone at MW. That means no one will fight him and those who have belts ie. Sturm will just avoid him and keep fighting bums for their whole career.
