    I try not to be patronising which I'm prone to being.

    I get it from my grandad. He was very condescending.

    He's dead now but he'll be up in Heaven, looking down on me.

    Yes most of us can slip into that mode at times. I've been more careful than usual myself. Once behind those ears are dry however!!!! :lol:

    Not much to worry about anyhow. Even when there's a misunderstanding I don't make a big fuss.

    Ummm...I was old enough to remember early Barkley on ESPN getting stopped by Robbie Simms and outpointed by the likes of Osley Silas (?) Iran improved quite a bit as a pro but he never had the technical ability or hand speed of a Julian Jackson. Come on guys, Julian Jackson went on a great run and was a near elite level champion at junior middle and middle. Iran never approached his skill or consistency although his toughness and underrated punching power produced some great wins. Two different levels of fighter here and Julian is being underrated and Iran is being overrated a bit. Jackson tko 8 at 160.

    I thought this was a pretty good analysis:

    It wasn't close Toney beat the **** out of Barkley one of James best performances. Toney vs a heavy bag would have been more competitive lol he hit Barkley with what seemed like a 1000 massive shots a true beat down.

    Yes, it made it clear how good Toney was. He just dismantled someone who beat Hearns twice.
