A frustrating year for middleweight contender Darren Barker will end on September 8th in London as the former two-time European champion makes his long-awaited return at Alexandra Palace.

I want to see Barker in there with someone world class or close to it. So that I can compare.

Zero chance of that happening on September 8th.

He's probably going to look to win the European Title again.

True, I would have loved to have seen him & Pirog.

This is what really frustrates me with British boxers.

He'll end up fighting a can, then another can, then a decent journeyman, then a decent opponent. He might return to the world scene one day... but he'll spend the next couple of years wasting time against cans.

That's pretty accurate in a lot of British fighters but I think Barker will want to move back into contention more quickly.

The Vassell & Purdy bout is an excellent match up. With the winner to fight Frankie Gavin please....

Id like to see a few fights involving Barker, Murray and Macklin. Be great for the British domestic scene if these guys faced eachother.
