Darren Barker, Matthew Macklin, Andy Lee, Martin Murray???


For me, Barker.

 

[widdy]

id say barker as well,with andy lee losing each fight with great ease

 

[JamieC]

macklin for me, i'll be controversial and say i think hes a better boxer than barker when he wants to be and can brawl when needed i think he has enough

 

[adamcanavan]

I think macklin, I think he's the best of the lot. Murray coming second then barker and lee coming 3rd and fourth respectively

depends on the draw but barker beats murray, barker is world class but i dontthinkhe matches up well with macklin, i'd like barker versus quillin actually

 

[Danny]

Macklin for me.

 

[Noonaldinho]

Macklin although Id have Murray as an outsider

I'd love this to happen. Four solid B level fighters, would make for great watching.

I think it'd be a Barker/Macklin final.

Lee is skilled but has average stamina and a pretty weak chin, going 50-50 with McEwan isn't great, considering he was later whacked by Quillin and handled by Ekundayo in PF.

Murray doesn't do anything special, he's fleet of foot but doesn't put much on his shots. I think he'd do well for a while against Macklin before eventually being overwhelmed with volume and perhaps stopped. Barker controls the distance well and would draw Murray forward, where he's not as effective.

I'd be tempted to say Macklin wins it, given that he's got more strings to his bow, he can fight aggressively pretty well, and retreat too, and take a decent shot - better than I think Barker can anyway.

Macklin win's, he's the most complete fighter out of all four, and his style favour's him in fights against the other three. He can box a bit, bang a bit and is an experienced and tough operator.

Against Barker he'd be facing a fighter with slightly better skills, but I think if Macklin were to put the pressure on him consistenly, he could break Barker down int he later rounds and potentially stop him.

Against Lee, a rangy boxer puncher, he would have to eat some leather as he works his way inside and id consider Andy to be the hardest puncher out of the group. I think once Mack weather's Lee's early start, he could get to Andy, who;s stamina and durability has to be called into question, and stop him in the late.

Murray would be an interesting fight, but he's by far the easiest opponent to beat. He's really a consistent pressure fighter who really rely's on a good work rate to rack up points and score knockouts, But Macklin, along with begin a better pressure fighter, with a better selection of shots and more speed/power also has the edge in boxing skill, and ultimately I think would win by fairly easy decision.

All good fight's though, and id like to see any combination of these four in the ring together.

Martinez :hat

good post :good but if i had to pick at any of it (and this is subjective from me) i'dsay macklins skillset is underrated, he hung with martinez well

 

[EnglishWay]

Macklin's the top dog.

 

[Ilesey]

Macklin, possibly Murray.
