Scene it

Nicky Said..

“When I finished boxing because of my back trouble I had been studying the training side of things for quite a while with a pal of mine, Jimmy, who runs a place over here in Tenerife,” said Cook when speaking to baxinscene. “I was waking up every day thinking what’s next? What am I going to do? So I stuck to what I know best and went into the coaching side of things.”

He added: “We’ve been preparing to get a camp going by emailing lots of boxing clubs around Europe and the U.K who come over for training camps and I train them all. I’m currently working with the Walsh brother’s [Liam and Ryan]. I’ve also got a few fighters in the pipeline who are coming along nicely and ready to turn professional, so the plan is to get a little camp going and hopefully make some world champions out of it.”

Nicky flies home to take his coaching course this Saturday (10th March) at London’s famous Peacock gym, where he faces a 10-hour day of tests, and will be returning to Tenerife the following Tuesday. He will be taking First aid, second trainer’s licence and a full trainer’s license en route to his coaching license, which will enable him to pass on his world level experience, advice and expertise to a host of would be fighters.

I went on to challenge for the [vacant WBO] world title against a Californian called Steve Luevano down at featherweight and I got stopped in the eleventh round. Frank ****** spoke to me and said that boiling down to featherweight done me and that if I move up a weight he’d get me another title shot, which happened the following year and I won.”

“The L5 vertebra was knocked out during that fight which affects pretty much everything. The ongoing problem I had with my back was a degeneration of a joint which I have had for a few years. I’d passed all the medicals, trained for three months in Tenerife so it was just one of those things. I took a punch in which turned out to be the wrong position and it just went straight away – when your lucks up, your lucks up. I am taking this training licence on the 10th and am looking forward to getting back into the sport. Anybody who’s interested in doing a bit of training should get in touch.”
