    Dont pay no mind to the haters..Billy is a great trainer and of course he is gonna back his fighter 100%...have seen Allens name pop up in this thread and i would love to see that fight but doubt it will happen...like you said i think he is going to find trouble being matched now.

    Billy is talking cobblers in my opinion.

    That took how many days/weeks to come up with all that rubbish, just be honest, he had a bad night but will be back. It happens..

    The excuses are embarrassing.

    It's down right disrespectful to say Martin needs a new trainer.
    However, Martin does need a lot of work Billy.

    He needs a heart transplant in my opinion - you need a big heart, desire and a relentless will to continue when the going gets tough in the ring.

    After Billy watching Ricky Burns go through all those rounds in agony with a broken jaw against Beltran, no wonder he is raging at watching such a big man with a very small heart.

    That's the one thing you can't teach, heart!

    Heart is either something you have inside you or you don't

    He needs to go and see the wizard with the tin man but unfortunately I think Dom Ingle has got Dorothy in his basement so nobody knows the way.

    Can you train a fighter to have a heart and the killer instinct? Bakole lost that fight mainly because he mentally gave up in there from around round 5 onwards. I dont think you can train heart and determination. Even a master psychologist would have their work cut out.

    Some trainers can get the best out of their fighters and some cannot. His head went after five rounds in a standard fight against a cruiserweight so why in a big fight (if he gets there) would the same trainer manage to get him up for it. He should see if a new trainer can help him and if they can't then maybe he should knock it on the head.
