    He's horrific. Malignaggi, Tarver and Chambers are all ex-fighters with great ****ysis - Barry just loves the home town fighter no matter what is happening in the ring.

    I watched the PBC broadcast and Sugar Ray was on point, he commentated on why the stance of a fighter leaves himself open to certain attacks and what the attacking fighter should do etc - really interesting. Barry in comparison sounds like a shill who believes fighters should fight one way and one way only much like Woodhall who believes an amateur upright style > any other style despite its obvious limitations.
