[@iancameron6124]

U handled that with grace n common sense 👏 I'm not being racist, but I feel these days EVEN TALKING about racism you feel uncomfortable when I shouldn't because I'm not a racist. Someone once said if we want to stop racism we need to stop talking about it.

[@NotfromDateline]

John Barnes's attitude is preventing him from getting those managerial roles, not the colour of his skin.

[@bfcrangers5411]

Keep this going Simon it's class 👏

[@stusmithmmm]

Simon, please interrupt a bit less. Let them talk, more comes out that way

Martin keown pls Also simon, go back to your former pronunciation of genunine pls

[@simonking5863]

Does John Barnes ever talk about anything other than race, it’s utterly boring and shows his entrenchment in identity politics. Great channel btw - thought Matt Le Tessier and Johny Nelson interviews were fascinating.

[@user-hg1ht2vm6p]

Nope...that's all he's got. Bitter now the money has dried up. Such an ungrateful turd 💩

[@wjl6336]

@@ryanwarcup7693 He was never picked up by the big organisations and was highly ranked in lesser european competitions (not glory), which had their own rankings and belt. He was decent tbf but he was not top level and his record is as padded as boxers are nowadays.

[@rooneye]

I wanna see a BIT of limited MMA being aloud in like kicks to the leg, certain take downs to moves like MMA (I know you cant do a lot of shit with them gloves on but still there are SOMETHING you could intro duce. Hitting a guy when hes down. No countdowns just combat till kO or through the 12 rounds the judges score (thought it eill be hard for boxing judges to know what the fuck is going on 🤣🤣

John Barnes is brilliant, especially if you are black. His responses shows a deep understanding of the black experience that is still relevant to the present day.

No it doesn't 😂

John Barnes is right and Simon Jordan won’t admit the point because it directly effects him

[@Two_Seat_Pete_FatA55]

Barnes has victim mentality. That's all.

[@swisstoni2913]

Fucking love Barnsey.

[@DwightCrichton-yg6wh]

Overt and covert racists will always be offend whenever John Barnes puts forth his experience and views.

[@user-hg1ht2vm6p]

People just don't like to listen to weak men, like John and yourself. Blaming racism because you can't make anything of yourself and in John's case....the money had ran out and he's now all bitter. Same as that other ungrateful black Michael Oher in America 🤮

[@t.f.1345]

@simon and Talksport we all want the undisputed fight to happen. I know you want it too. But as long as media and experts like you say: tyson fury is the best heavyweight best of his generation fury beats usyk easily fury is all time great it will never happen. Fury us a fighter with the biggest ego. He is probably thinking these clowns think i am the best although im fighting bums and duck real tough fights, why should i take any risks then? after the Klitschko fight he retired. AJ rose to fame and was considered the next hero. This triggered fury and he got the fire back. To get the undisputed fight we need to trigger his ego. So instead of praising him why not change the agenda to trigger him to go for the undisputed? You just meed to put the agenda: Can fury really beat usyk? Usyk is too fast for fury, he could win easily Fury might be past his prime and too slow Usyks might be too much If all of you start this agenda, this will trigger fury for sure.

[@CroydonTramp]

Everyone knows what John Barnes is and it's utterly revolting.

[@DwightCrichton-yg6wh]

Comments clearly from a Racist. Hope you can get help for your mental health problem.

[@DwightCrichton-yg6wh]
