Hope in 12

16/1 for Hope to win within the distance. With all Barker's injuries surely there is a chance he will tweak something during the fight and quit?

Or being cut or bludgeoned into submission.
Will be having a bit on that. Might even tie it in with a Magee win too.

Not the worst shout I've ever heard, I've seen both of his matches with Proska live and his KO % doesn't do his power justice in my opinion.

I presumed Hopes stoppage odds would be slightly better than the win odds (ala Magee 13/2 FTW and only 7s for the stoppage) so I didn't pay much attention to it. The bookies have priced this one wrong imo.

If you can find odds on Farenas v Gamboa they could be worth a little look at.

16/1 chance.

Nobody is saying it's defo gonna happen but at those odds it's worth a speculative punt. Barker is prone to injury, Hope likes to rough it up and can swing his bat alright. Barker on his best day is a cracking boxer who's got the brain and the moves but is he the same lad and how much did that last fight take out of him. At those odds you haven't got go large to reap a healthy return. It's more of a fun bet but I've had more than my fair share of these come in this year so I'll be throwing a score at it to make it interesting and I can now shout at the TV too. Everyone's a winner.
