    No problem - I think the BBC are only just breaking the story today though. So it's now official.

    Billy Graham will retire from training after Friday night apparently.

    Yep, just been reading up on it now in the other forum, thanks again. Makes sense now that I know it's a retrement as I wouldn't have thought Hatton would have the balls to split with him.

    I think this was the right time for the move and Mayweather Sr. should be his new trainer.. or Roger mayweather, or Roach......

    that being said, graham did a hell of a job and should be praised for helping hatton become the most popular brit boxer and making him a P4Per..

    good job graham

    There will be no way he will work with an American trainer.

    He would have to live in America for three months, and as part of a very close family I wouldn't imagine that would sit very well. He also has a six year old son who he sees every day.

    Emmanual Steward, who trains Wlad and Lee, just got through training them somewhere in Europe. So i dont see that being a problem..

    Did Graham quit... It sounded to me in the rickys dads interview that graham quit..
