I agree 100% with that ..... Based on their performances in the last couple of years in the pros. Barker's defensive movement is to be admired in recent fights, particularly the way he ducks under punches ala Sweet Pea Whitaker.

Some fighters are better suited to the pro game rather than the amateurs, as it has been illustrated numerous times in the past.
YEAH! fighting nobodies though! BS writers havent got a clue!!! :OhYes:
I'm glad I'm a Boxrec News writer then :OhYes:

I have done a couple of interviews for BS though :wink:

On a serious note, I rate Lee higher than Duddy in terms of ability but below Macklin and Barker. His amateur pedigree is better but I don't think that will transcend into the pro game. I guess time will tell .....

A. Andy Lee was never offered the shot - despite after just beating Belghecham in his last fight.

B. He would love a shot at fighting the winner or replacing either fighter in this fight.

So there you have it - clear evidence the Barker is ducking Lee.
There you go kids proof barker ducked lee.

Lee was a better amateur and barker has beaten absolutely nobody in pro game so how you come to the conclusion barker is better than lee is beyond me.......
because lee lost to a journeyman :witzend:

Let's face it though. Do the EBU or any other organisation 'offer' title shots anymore? I doubt not!

I'm not blaming anyone Diggler. Barker got his opportunity rightly or wrongly, it's boxing afterall. If roles were reversed and Lee got the shot, I wouldn't be complaining. Barker - Lee has to happen in the future though especially after Lee called him out plus it would shut up one side of this argument. :TU:

He is ducking him because he is taking a fight for the EBU title against a fight ranked lower than Lee in the EBU rankings and against a fighter that Lee just trounced in his last fight! Does that make me an idiot??

Macklin to win overall, he'd beat all the other 3 comfortably and then get trounced when he steps up in class.

Yeah, I'd pick Darren Ducker to get beaten by ALL three.

Not just beat him - KHTFO!!! Ducker is a car crash waiting to happen! The glass jawed, mockney, bum slayer is going to get slaughtered sooner rather than later.

Explain why they choose to fight Belghecham rather than even make an enquiry with a credible opponent like Lee then??
