So who is the best ? Barker, Murray or Macklin !

[ScottDetonator]

I've gone for Murray overall. All three of them are aged 30 but I think Murray looks the fresher. Macklin has all ready had a fair few tough fights and Barker is one injury away from retirement.

Macklin mentioned a possible showdown with Golovkin could be on the cards, as well as Geale. I'd think Golovkin would really put some miles on Matthew's clock and wouldn't fancy him at all to win that. Golovkin could potentially unify the division, if he gets the fights and especially once Sergio is out of the way. I don't think Macklin beats Geale either.

Maybe I'm dismissing Barker a little early but he has been so injury plagued it would be hard to see him coming through another injury. I think one loss and he may well call it a day.

Murray will probably get a pasting from Sergio but I hope it's something he can build on. I think he could potentially be the one to get a World title out of the three.

However, when we look back over their careers in years to come, Macklin could be seen as the better up to now. He must certainly be earning more. Macklin is also looking for a Chavez Jnr fight, which would be another tough fight but another good name for his record.

Macklin - most power

Barker - most skilful boxer, least durable

Murray - most durable

Difficult to say who's best between them. I think Barker may edge Murray on points, Murray outlast Macklin in a late stoppage, and Macklin KO Barker. I chose Murray in the poll, he put in a similar level performance against Sturm as Macklin did but is still unbeaten and looks very tough and durable, we will find out his level when he fights Martinez. Barkers fade against Martinez was bad although he put in a very skilful performance up to that point

That poll is pretty close . Make the fights happen
