How good is Darron Barker?

[Heeb]

He's a good fighter. Solid domestic-level talent. In no way should he be fighting for a world title though. Sergio will walk through him.

[SOPH~ REP.]

If you haven't heard of him before hes probably not good
this fight shouldn't been broadcast
fox sports worthy

[ablindwatchmakr]

This is probably just a fight to build interest in some fight down the road--maybe against the winner of Cotto-Margarito. Don't be surprised....

[daggum]

he's dazzling

[DoktorSleepless]

My theory is that this is a case of a promoter doing a favor for another promoter so that later on the favor can be repaid back.

[Visceral]

He's probably the best guy they could get who is willing to fight Martinez. Which is sad that that's somebody not currently in the top 10.

[ATG Fighter]

Ok fighter. Easy fight for Martinez

[Check_hooks]

He aint no Pirog or Zbik thats for damn sure

"because manny pacroid and floyd gayweather are ducking him."

naw, just joking.
it's honestly a crap fight, no other way to describe it. barker won't present any challenge martinez hasn't already faced. i honestly don't know why he got a shot. team martinez did say they were taking an easy fight after dzinziruk, but i thought it'd be a stay busy fight going down like right away. guess not....hopefully they face a tough opponent next.
