Absolutely gutted for Barker. Always thought he's come across as a proper nice guy and it's sad to see him lose the strap so easily. Still, Sturm looked 100% better than he was the last few times I saw him.
Looks like Barker will call it a day for sure, shame injuries have really plagued his career.

Only just noticed this mate sorry.
I dunno if I said on here or not that I knew Broner wasn't up to the hype but shit I wasn't expecting that much of a beating.

I take it your bet didnt win then? I took the upset which happened but he won on points not by KO. Should have just took the 4/1 instead of being greedy

It was funny as fuck, Maidana made an absolute show of Broner's defence, I always said he was susceptible to the right hand and body shots but it turns out he's susceptible to getting hit with every shot in the book.
He was still trying to be a clever little cunt when he was getting his face punched in.

Only just got a chance to watch the fight but it was absolutely brilliant. Great performance from Maidana and I was quite happy to see Broner get battered tbh, he was walking on to those left hooks for the entire fight, don't use the shoulder roll unless you know how!
Lost it in the 11th round when Maidana mimicked Broner's humping haha. In a very weird way that kind of summed up the fight for Broner, Maidana ended up robbing him of his spirit and cocky attitude and made him look stupid in the process. Broner looked like a shell of his former self after the fight.

Tbf I thought Broner did well to survive. That first knockdown though, Maidana was swinging that left from low, and Broner kept falling for it.

That disguised punch Maidana was throwing was beautiful. To be fair if Broner was just a normal fighter I'd praise him for his heart but the fact that he's an absolute cunt just makes it funny to me.

Just got round to watching the Broner/Maidana fight - loved every minute of it. Maidana humping Broner was absolutely magic. Broner did well to survive but boxed horribly, didn't look prepared for the fight at all. The loss may do him good - he certainly thought he was better than he was going into the fight. Really pleased for Maidana, have enjoyed every fight I've seen him in. Kinda depressing that for a forum with an average age of about 21, a wrestling thread has more posts than a boxing one heh
