    What do you guys think?

    I know of McGirt but being over in the uk i guess you us peeps will be better able to evaluate this possible link up, will it be good for Khan?
    To me McGirt seems like a decent trainer, i personally woulda preferred Brenden Ingle or Enzo Calzaghe (tho could still happen).

    Another promising carreer goes down the tubes isnt Mcgirt Poison as a trainer guys fighters are always getting their ass handed to them and this guys advice betwwen rounds is not exactly fight changing revelations Guy is more of a cheerleader than anything else.

    Horrible choice. I've no idea why he'd dump a promising trainer for this muppet.

    'have the bit of water'


    'you shouldnt get hit with those shots'


    a belt holder and 3 lines and you got a trainer :good


    to be honest he is more of a rock for his fighters he is there so that the boxer/fighter has somone who will be there for there needs...some guys just want a wsier older person to be in there corner to support them and give them confidence

    this was why i felt teddy atlas is a ****. he took the **** out of his fighter...if you have had a bad round the very last thing you want is to ripped by your own cornerman. no onder moorer was giving very little resistance he was made a fool of after every round.

    If that is the case Khan and his Glass Jaw will be getting knocked out faster than I originally thought.

    If things are going well:

    "You just keep doing what we worked on."

    If things are going poorly:

    "You're not doing what we worked on."

    Young Amir is staring down the barrel of the fate of doom here, but it hasn't quite happened yet, there is still hope for the kid!

    I know its fashionable to have an American trainer, but Oliver Harrison was considered the best young trainer in Britain. I could see dropping him for Floyd Sr or something, but McGirt, what the hell :-(
