    That's a real shame, talk about shooting themselves in the foot. What pros does he train other than Froch?

    Ive seen this i think McCracken i a great coach and he has brought a pro work ethic and mindset to the amateur game and has got the results to go with it.

    This just distances the amateurs from the pros even further which at the top level is stupid
