hero ?

[Barlick]

I agree with Fenster, very good fighter, very poor commentator.

And I'd like to question Barlick about the Irish comment?

Barry McGuigan had a fine career, but hardly one that justifies induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. I suggest therefore that his nationality advanced his cause, as the Irish hold a special place in the hearts of many Americans, particularly in the boxing fraternity.

If anyone can suggest another reason, I am all ears.
