        Those shots throw off your equilibrium, it perforated his eardrum ffs.

        Nothing at all fake about it, certainly was no dive.

        It was a very similar to shot to what Green hit Roy Jones with & it more or less had the same effect.

          I hope Baker's eardrum got permanently damaged so that he can never enter a ring again.

            Yh makes perfect sense. I contribute it more to Barker doing his homework & coming in with a decent gameplan rather than Sergio having a bad night.

            He disrupted Sergio's rhythm & timing & Sergio had to adapt, I noticed a few rounds prior to the K.O he was looking for that, in fact I believe it was the same shot he hurt Barker with in round 10 & he also landed it a few seconds before the K.O which seemed to stop Barker in his tracks.

                Why would you wish that on him? He's one of the nicest, most humble guys in boxing, a hero that put his own life at risk to prevent an attack outside a nightclub. He just fought the P4P No3 & give it everything and made a right go of it despite being wrote off by virtually everyone. How can you not like the guy?

                  If Pirog isn't a Bum then there is no way you can call Barker a bum. he has a better resume, younger, more fights/experience and for all we know would have done teh same to Jacobs if given the chance.

                  It baffles me how people thought Barker could be a bum yet can claim Pirog is some world beater just because he beat Jacobs.
