    47 amateur fights 44 wins.

    Signed pro terms with Mickey Duff but broke his leg playing football and was forced to retire.

    He is not some fitness first trainer all the keyboard bums try to imply, his pedigree is legit.

    Fair enough -he has some legit boxing pedigree.

    I know Andy has enjoyed some recent success.

    But, hard as I look, I cannot for the life of me see how Andy is a better boxer under Booth. If anything he has disimproved. :bbb

    He has disimproved whilst winning winning world title fights in which he was pretty much an underdog every time.

    Sounds legit mate

    How can anyone possibly question Booth's pedigree as a trainer? Did well with Haye, had Groves undefeated with a win over Degale and primed for a world title fight with Froch, and took a MW mid carder in Lee to a world title. Jesus some guys on here are so idiotic. Have a go at his perceived arrogance but let's not beat around the bush, he is clearly a very good boxing trainer.

    Booth has to be a top trainer fighters wouldnt go with im otherwise and the results also back him up.

    He does seem to be a complete prik tho and has a smugness that almost makes you feel that you'd quite like to see one of his fighters mess up or him to mess up to see if it teaches him any humility. Guy has one helluva ego on him and to be honest i can see it causing troubles later on cos i cant see him reigning it in the near future in fact can only see it gettin worse..... He must be a helluva good trainer tho and if his personal qualities do not bother you he would prgress most fighters i would assume very good with his gameplans too it seems

    He has done well and is a very good trainer. But on here trainers are like fighters the moment one of their fighters lose they are useless and a bum etc

    Which club/region did he box for in ?

    44 wins of 47 fights is good. Where did he get in the ABAs ?
    What weight was he ?

    And when was this ?

    I think Booth is the best trainer alive.. but Peter Quillin doesn't have to work with Adam Booth to be better than Andy Lee.
