    Do you think there is a british trainer that will be better for Callum.
    Bearing in mind that Joe is the most accomplished british trainer ever.

    I'd feel better if he was with Booth, McCracken or Ingle to be honest. Shouldn't have to be British though.

    I see how Gallagher's style has worked wonders for less talented boxers than Callum. I just think that style is restrictive for someone who has top level skills or ability. Gallagher could train the skills out of Lomachenko and turn him into a plodding come forward fighter.

    Looking at Gallagher's bulging waistline, he appears to have been hitting the Tesco Value range.

    I think Callum's gonna be a very successful fighter at Super middle, Light heavy and eventually cruiser in my opinion. I don't think he's the most skilful fighter I've seen, his style isn't always easy on the eye and he's probably guilty of coasting rounds, letting fighters move in the pocket where he'll untidily let them take shots on his gloves and arms...but then he can finish a fight in seconds with devastating power and speed to the head and body.
