NBA Great Charles Barkley takes a strong attitude towards transgender athletes

Charles Barkley will be one of the most pronounced athletes in history.

He has an opinion on everything. And he is not afraid to say what is in his thoughts.

During an interview Dan Dakich from Outkick, he kept loyal. Barkley was asked about transgender athletes about the debate.

“I will make it very easy for you, Dan. Men shouldn't do sports against women,” said Barkley on Thursday. “I will not go into all the bulls – that's here in the world today.”

Barkley later doubled his feelings in the interview. Although he offered support for the transgender and gay community, he did not repeat men against women.

“Men shouldn't do sports against women. If someone thinks that, I think they are stupid,” said Barkley. “I support the gay community 100 percent. I support the transgender community 100 percent. But I don't think men should do sports against women.”

Part of Barkley's popularity is that he speaks his opinion. He is one of the most watched broadcasters on television, especially as part of TNTS Inside the NBA.
