What's your opinion's on the Paul Samuel knockout loss to Darren Barker?

Personally, I feel the Ref could have done better and the match should have been declared a no-contest.

Paul was a good fighter a few years ago and I hope he continues with his comeback. He's V exciting.

does British boxing even have a n/c rule. when was the last time that happened?

Parris was dreadful, as he has been for ages.

Samels deserves a rematch no question.

With a better ref, preferbly Ian John Lewis, the best in the world.

Ref could've done much better. I hope Paul stays in the game he's a warrior.

Ian John Lewis has improved since he gave a terrible decision to Geoff Mcreesh over Ojay Abraham.

If Samuels does decide to carry on , i thibk he should look to go down to Light-Middle, I just can't see him being strong enough at Middle.
A rematch with Barker won't be happening anytime soon, Darren needs alot of time to recover from the shock of losing his brother Gary in a recent car crash.
Hopefully we can see both in the ring sometime in 2007

Samuels is such an exciting fighter I hope he comes back with a couple of eye catching wins at LM. For any up and comers looking for the step up, Samuels will provide an edge of the seat test.

Isn't he a trainer too now? I cannot remember the fighters corner he was in recently.
