BY CHARLOTTE DALY: When Barry McGuigan turned 63 this week, he was still the stand-alone undisputed No.1 trainer in his family. Not anymore. Shane McGuigan, both son and protégé, won his second British Boxing Board of Control Trainer of the Year title on St Patrick's Day, so it's now 2-2. And you can't assume that it will not be around for long. Of course, Barry is one of the most popular British fighters of all time. A former featherweight world champion and a BBC Sports personality of the year, he cannot walk along a street without being reminded of Loftus Road, Eusebio Pedroza of Panama, and the championship victory in 1985.
