    Never been a prouder British Boxing fan

    Than this morning, the smile hasn't come off my face. Couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke.

    Congratulations Darren Barker.

    That was a tremendous show of courage from Darren Barker in round six. Everybody who was watching thought he was done, but he came back and hurt Geale in the last 20 seconds of the round.

      Kovalev won me some nice money. But I didn't even bet on the Barker fight. I just wanted to watch a great fight and see his arms raised at the end. Phenomenal heart and a top British fighter.

        Proud British boxing fan here too . I loved it when he rose from the knockdown in the sixth round. I thought he got punched in the balls again.

          The Kovalev fight was a covering bet for the Barker fight, but Barker pulled through and won me forty quid. Even if I hadn't bet, I'd still be happy as Larry with Mayweather inside him

            It was a rough day of betting for me personally. Bet on Cleverly to win via decision (what was I thinking?), Buckland to beat Smith via decision, Romero to KO Martinez, and Barker to beat Geale via decision. I also had a tiny bet on a draw in the Geale fight.

            I ended up losing a few dollars last night.
