Barry was not only a tough boxer but very smart in the ring aswell. He worked out how to win against some that he possibly should have been beaten by.
27 Years on and some people still think Lester Ellis should have beaten Bazza. Get over it its History now.Woulda Coulda Shoulda means Jack ****. Bazza was always going to beat Lester.
I'm not saying Lester should have beaten Barry. But with the ability he had he could have beaten him. Barry just didn't let him. Michael was hyped out of his brain that day and probably would have beaten anyone.
If anyone was hyped out of their brain that night it was Lester. He should not have gone to War with Bazza that night.Lester should not have got sucked into fighting Bazza at all.Bazza knew Lester's moves inside out.Plus there were a few other things in the back of Bazza's mind that he knew he would always have it over Lester.
