Carl Frampton was never going to let Paddy Barnes away with this one.
Never.
Barnes did a workout with a high-profile athlete on Saturday morning and just like anyone would do in that situation, he decided to commemorate the moment with a photo.
The subsequent image of himself posing with Brighton and Hove Albion goalkeeper David Stockdale was posted to Twitter and it was innocent enough. On first glance, it would be hard to find any fault with it.
Have a good look at it and see if you notice what Carl Frampton took issue with.
Good beach run with @stockogk1313 to start the day 👊👍 pic.twitter.com/b5km9mwp1x

If you spotted it, well done. If you still haven’t look down.
It was, of course, Barnes’ interesting choice of footwear that Frampton felt compelled to inform his hordes of followers about.

They say you shouldn’t judge a man until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.
So we’ll reserve our judgment on Mr Barnes’ choice of footwear.
And anyway, Barnes explained himself.
Those are what ya wear when ya train in Marbella kid 😉 https://t.co/9DQBAwmHp4
