    Yeah, the only drugs Spence needed was pain killers and anti inflammatories to deal with the ass whoopin Crawford put on him. LOL

    James is his boxing trainer not his nutritionist.

    No Coach Derrick James is clean. Garcia did what he did behind his back.

    Going by the responses it seems that Derrick James is a bit of a ***** who just does what he is told. I read Spence hasn't even paid him for the Crawford fight and is refusing to. Do you think a guy like Teddy Atlas would just stick his head in the sand and say "Oh I'm not the nutritionist"

    James wasn't. I remember roach's famous quote of him saying " I don't know what Ariza was putting in those shakes" when talking about pac. Roach wasn't aware of what supplements pac was taking the same is true with James. These guys aren't nutritionist.

    A head coach should be liaising with the nutritionist IMO

    Your post got me thinking. I did some digging on Derrick James. Come to find out, he's Don King's great grandson. His real name is Even Fields and his first dogs name was Balco. He's not just a major player behind the scene, he is the man that pulls all the strings in boxing. King, Arum, Oscar, Hearn and Papa Hearn, all on his payroll. Y'all think the Saudi's are putting up all that money, nah, Derrick is pimping the Saudi's. The commissions, the testing agencies all bow down. Not a single glove gets laced up or a pen stroke on a scorecard happens without Derrick's approval. I called the Fed's a to let them know, next thing I know the FBI is investigating me. I call Biden, he straight up told me to F off and don't let Derrick know that I called him. DJ is big time.

    Why should he? They have different roles.

    Coach Derrick James is not a nutritionist and you are out of order blaming him for what he had no control of. It’s the manager’s job to coordinate not the the coach or trainer. Why are you looking to deflect blame from where it lies.
