    :thumbsup

    I'm about 13 minutes through out of like 23 or so.

    Should be ready a few hours from now.

    Listening to it again, Virgil has one hell of a boxing mind IMHO.

    Virgil comes across really knowledgable in his interview. Of course having Ward as your star fighter with the amazing technique and ring smarts he has makes Virgil look pretty good too.

    Virgil is a great trainer. He really studies the sport. He is very short and to the point in the corner during a fight. Unlike many trainers who try to load their fighter with a ton of bull****, Virgil says one or two things and that's it. When Froch fought Johnson Virgil was ringside studying the fight knowing he had to come up with a gameplan for the winner.

    Agreed. They are a great team who compliment each other very well.

    I always enjoy listening to what trainers have to say, especially the guys I've had an opportunity to speak with a few times like Emanuel, Brother Nazim, Ronnie Shields, Roger Bloodworth, Robert Garcia, Iceman Scully, the Mayweather Trio, and of course Virgil (and even Angelo Dundee for that matter, RIP). (Apologies if I'm forgetting anyone off the top of my head).

    I always am fascinated by their insight and knowledge of the game, and I especially love listening to first hand dealing with their trainer-fighter working relationship and their experiences together.

    If he can't go in 10 seconds, that is out by definition. They are still soft selling this one to the public officially. I've heard he was out cold.

    He said this at the scene:
    If a guy I train gets hit by a car a week before the fight but is still going through with it, if u ask me, Im still gonna tell u he feels spectacular...

    The person who started this thread wrote his very close friend was their when it happened, and said he was not knocked unconscious. Just said Chad was unable to get back up for awhile, and had to take around a 10 minute break :good

    I think someone said something about 'twitching'. 10 seconds is a KO. 10 minutes is a KTFO in my book.
