Normally it's held in house (U.S) but in reality Britain has some great up and coming trainers. Enter the frame, one Billy Nelson. This content is protected Billy Nelson Trainer of Ricky Burns, Nelson is one of the most unique and intriguing characters in world boxing. The philosophical Scotsman is often known to recite poetry to his fighters before and inbetween rounds. He also uses unique training regimes to better his fighters technically and tactically. If Nelson was to somehow guide Burns to beating a well prepared Kevin Mitchell. Surely that would make him a shoe in as Trainer of the Year?. Katsidis and then Mitchell all in one year span? massive achievement IMO. Nelson advised Burns to move up to Lightweight after seeing off threats from dangerous challenges such as Joeseph Layrea and brutally ending the career of former world champion Nicky Cook. The talk in Britain is that Amir Khan will join Nelson. Edit: Beat Moses as well, that adds another top win for Burns and Nelson. Nelson's tactically astute guys i have him up there with the likes of Brother Naazim. His posts on the brit forum just speak mad shop.
Thats abit silly really. He beat a half shot version of Katsidis and he might beat the guy that Katsidis destroyed. And who is Katsidis? A nearly man who was never elite. How does that make you trainer of the year?
