Comments Thread For: Barker's In-Ring Slip of No Concern, He's in The Zone

In the final round of his sparring on Monday, Darren Barker slipped on the ring mat and fell flat on the canvas. He got up flexing his right ankle and then resumed sparring, seemingly fine. His handlers outside the ring let out a deep sigh of relief. Barker, making his first appearance stateside in 23 fights, faces Sergio Martinez on Saturday in Atlantic City for Martinez’s WBC Diamond middleweight title. It's by far the biggest fight of Barker’s career. [Click Here To Read More]

I hope Barker aquits himself well, and gentlemanly...

Yeah, I hope Barker does himself justice. I would love to see him go in there and fight his heart out and give Martinez fight! I like Barker, always have, I just don't think he'll win. If he does though I would love to see a rematch - let Barker have his pay day and make more of a name for himself - I don't think Barker would beat Martinez twice in a row.
