    I don't think booth is manager of any of his big name fighters like Burnett, conlon or Kelly, doubt it's him

    It would highly amuse me if it was James Degale being shafted by Jim McDonnell all these years. Loyalty or stupidity.

    I am also of the opinion that it is Booth, however

    Well if rumours are correct Money and Booth is the main reason for splits, Haye, Groves and Eubank (however that was something more on the both being difficult but Snr was not happy with the whole % booth would get for total control when he thought he doesnt need it)

    Did you ask him if it was 20 for anal or oral?

    ^ He’s not training them though is he?

    Warren has been known not to pay his fighters full stop, will Barry jones criticise his pay master?

    Got a feeling Barry wouldn't say anything on Twitter if it was Haye because he often works alongside him.

    This is who came to my mind.

    Fits the trainer/manager role.

    Tunde is a good shout but if it is him don’t you think he would be trying to encourage that world title or fight or big fight with Buatsi to happen quickly so he can get his dough?

    Managers and trainers usually keep 10% each I think

    Standard board contract is, 25% manager and 10% trainer.
    If you sign a board contract as a fighter you can pay less than those percentages, if your trainer/manager agrees but you can't pay more.
    A lot of trainer/managers take 25%
