Middleweight title for Barker
Darren Barker overcame a middle-round knockdown to defeat Australian Daniel Geale with a split decision to win the International Boxing Federation middleweight title in Atlantic City, New Jersey, on Saturday.
The 31-year-old Barker battled hard in the early going but was knocked down by a right hand in the sixth round before holding on in the 12th to claim the title. The Englishman, who almost retired from boxing in 2006 following the death of his brother, improved to 26-1 with 16 knockouts as he won on two of the judges’ scorecards, 116-111 and 114-113. One judge scored the fight 114-113 in favor of Geale, who lost for just the second time in his pro career. Geale, of Tasmania, dropped to a 29-2, 15 KOs overall.
