He won the rematch, whupped Hope's ass too. I would choose Proksa over Barker. He has a very problematic style to deal with, but it can be neutralized with a very good jab and foot-work. He's bound to catch Barker sooner or later, and I'm not sure he'll be able to withstand what Proksa can dish out.
Proksa vs Barker: Who wins?

Didn't Barker have hip surgery without a tune up tough to say how he'll look bcse Proksa is all over the place but Darrens length and sharp shots could pick the pole off when he lunges in
I just don't know about Barkers workrate he'll need to keep it up bcse Proksa can just out swing himComment

Barkers defense consists of keeping his ear muffs up.
Proksa is very accurate and will break that feather fisted bum down and outComment

Seeing Barker be competitive with Sergio alone gives me no doubts that The Dazzler would school the **** out of the smaller, slower, much wider wannabe Sergio that is Proska.
He is like a drunk badly mocking Sergio.
If Kerry Hope can hit him & hurt him repeatably like that then WTF would Barker do?
Barker via shut out or late stoppage. Way too sound technically for a guy like that.Comment

He's not feather-fisted but certainly not a big puncher.
He has the very economical European style which is not really conducive to knockouts. I always thought Kotelnik was a fairly decent puncher too but just doesn't put 'em together.Comment

I would favor Barker by decision based on his skillset and defense, but I'm not sure how his stamina will keep up considering his year long break. So I also kind of favor Proksa right now.Comment

Barker would beat Proksa easily and probably stop him late. Barker is just a much better fighter than him and would outbox and counter Proksa to death.Comment
