How good of a trainer is Adam Booth?

at first i thought booth wasn't up to much but as times gone on i actually see a guy that has his own philosphy on boxing and i respect that. i do find the you threw 32 punches that round david thats great now can you up that? strange but then he gives a good piece of advice by saying mormeck can only hold up two attacks then stops. must admit i like to see some more technical and tactical advice flung in but if it aint broke don't try fix it although it's only worked up till now we know how cruel a sport boxing is.

 

I don't think he is good at all. I've never seen any words of wisdom, impressive pad work etc Haye seems to have taken care of his own path. Experience has changed Haye i.e. losing to Thompson. Haye made the decision to go to America and train with top fighters and coaches.

 

Does anybody know if he's training george groves. He was on hayes undercard and I felt he did similar things to a early david haye

 

i know booth trains maguire so i wouldn't be suprised. it's either him or dave caldwell.

 

Seems quite good to me, although it's difficult to tell when he's dealing with talented fighters who'd be champions WHOEVER trained them. A good example being Billy Graham. Let's be honest, he's nothing special as a trainer, but had a great fighter. I think some of these new, younger trainers like Booth,Beard,McCulloch etc are a breath of fresh air and a refreshing change from the tired old geezers we've seem for years and years. I'd make an exception for Brendan Ingle, who produces the goods time and time again from a very small geographical area

 

Hard to judge a guy that only trains one fighter.

 

I trained with Adam many years ago when he had Chris Okoh as his charge at the Bushido Martial Arts School in Croydon. They used to come along to the kickboxing classes to work out and use the ring and bags. Adam was always really pleasant and knowledgable, and is a fantastic pad-man. There were no airs and graces and they both came along to our shows and supported us. I even have a video of a fight with Adam in my corner! My first post but felt I had to say something as so many people were slating Adam without justification. I don't think for a moment that Adam would claim to have taught David Haye to fight, but he has been with David over 10 years. To answer the op, Chris Okoh was Commonwealth Crusier Champ, and yes Adam did train Danny Williams for a period of time.
