    You heard it here first. Barker challenging Geale for the IBF middleweight title. Good matchup. Barker's got a good chance in beating Geale, but it's a tough test for sure.

    Baker :lol:

    By rights, this fight should be in England. I don't often feel that way, but Geale would have a tonne of support, it would not be "hometown" by any stretch, it would headline a card and they would both make a lot more money. Baker vs Geale in New Jersey just doesn't sound right to me.

    yeah, this is simply ridiculous, an australian and an english fighting, both total unknown in the US, fighting in New-Jersey :Thumb: I'm sure the sales for this one are gonna be really good.

    I agree with you guys. Why this is in New Jersey is beyond me. I thought Baker would be heading to Australia to challenge Geale.

    Albeit Baker is a bit known to the Yanks following his impressive effort vs Spaniard.
