Yes Kevin Barry is from a boxing family and as a kid, I remember watching him fight Holyfield in the 1984 Olympics. You're absolutely right about Parker's aggression and he also has a problem with not following the game plan which must have been frustrating for Barry. A new trainer isn't going to make a blind bit of difference if Parker continues to ignore their strategy once the bell rings.
Besides Barry, Are there any great trainers cut from the old cloth in the land of the long white cloud?

Hugging with Junior Fa most of the fight will not help his drawing power. Even though he is only about 30 he just fights like a 40 year old fighter that is not desperate to win.
