      im pretty sure he knows more about boxing than most users on here do.
      with that said, his opinions are his. he is more interesting to listen to than max kellerman that's for sure...most sportswriters or experts have sides when it comes to big name fighters, either they like em or they dont. i think dude just speaks his mind, i dont really mind it.

        He definitely isn't an idiot but he's got some deep things to say about journalism these days. I think he's a guy from a different time but maybe he feels uncomfortable with the current format:

                He has a lot of knowledge but that doesn't mean his opinions necessarily aren't ******.

                      End of the day he is the last great boxing writer of his generation alive. Enjoy him and learn some lessons if you can. You won't see another guy like him, ever.

                      If he annoys you, fair play. My parents annoy me but I still respect that at the very least they gave over some time towards me and give a damn.

                      Another way of looking at it is like imagine you're walking with a dinosaur.
