    Favourite British pundit.......


    Not as active as he used to be, but still a great guy imo. I love listening to Barry, he pulls no punches and tells it like it is.

    My girlfriend is a Barry fan :lol:

    He's alright, although I cant say im a fan, I think he's a decent guy, just that sometimes I think he thinks his opinion is more valid than anyone else's, like what he's got to say on any given matter is more important, although I guess you could level that at Baz to :lol:

    Nelson's opinions seem to be the same stuff regurgitated on every telecast, like once you've heard him once, you've heard him a 1000 times.

    I think Nelson is terrible these days, nearly as bad as McCrory.

    I like McGuigan and Oliver..... shout outs too to Darren Barker and Carl Froch when they are on.

    Thaxton used to be pretty good too in the Hennessy Sports ITV days.

    I felt for John because he loves the sport and he so enthusiastic but he'd get himself all amped up and emotional and go on and get himself in a mess whilst pissing sweat. He's a legend...and knows the game..shame he's not being used more. I think he'd grow into the role more and more with time.

    Spencer Oliver is good,i cant stand Piper and McCrory.Nelson can be good, but can also talks allot of ****.I don't understand why Sky persist with Piper,he talks crap and gives the impression that he does not even likes boxing anymore.
