You seemed to be saying that Chisora had beaten fighters that were better than Fury, not that Chisora had a better record.

I think it would be difficult to give the third round to the Latvian.

The Law wrote:Tyson Fury impressed me tonight. I watched the Cleverly and Chisora fights with him in the hotel bar last night and we also discussed his impressive body punching. Today he showed once again his excellent body punches, it was probably his best performance to date. I'm sitting in the press row (over the shoulder of Duke Mckenzie) as I type this via my phone.
Tap Duke on the shoulder and ask for a shout out to Boxrec

Hard one to call, but yeah, I tend to agree- although the Latvian did land some good shots, but Evans had a good end of round flurry.

Rnd 1.
Lots of jabbing by both fighters. Barker looking the better boxer of the two. Lands a few good right hands. Wins the round easy enough but has to be careful of Mcdermotts right hand.
Barkey 1-0

Looks like McDermotts mohawk was done by a cross-eyed hairdresser.

Rnd 2.
Better round for McDermott, roughing Barker up. Barker doesn't look 100% comfortable and caught with some right hands. A bit too languid defensively. He lands some good shots himself and has some good movement. Tough round to score. I'll give it to Bark.
2-0

Round 3
Barker's round his right hand is catching McDermott every time he is looking very sharp but drops his hands as he moves out McDermott could catch him but Barker is looking good
Barker 30-27 IMO

Barker wins it big. Classy work. Connecting with good right hands. Had to take an uppercut that looked nasty but in total control it seems.

Great shot from Darren but Paris could have given McDermott a chance there.

Fair play to Barker. Well done. Boxed beautifully. He couldnt miss with that right hand and he set it up well. Great performance. Unlucky Macca - the best man won but at least he is safe to fight another day
