    Glad I'm not alone in my view of his journalism.

    I've already said I don't agree with a lot of the stuff he says. In fact, I started a thread a while back entitled 'idiot comments about boxing' and gave the example of when Bert said Lennox should be rated 'about 18th or 19th' in the HW rankings, 'somewhere below Corbett and Sulivan'.

    I have a problem with his "clear-headed" reflections of events that seem oddly different to contemporary reports in the press...

    Yeah, shame he's dead for those that loved and liked him, but never been a fan.
