    Dundee was a diplomat, if he was in Australia, he would say that; if he was in Britain then he would rant and rave about Hatton and Calzaghe, it is called having class and making a good impression.

    Something Hatton and Mayweather could learn about after their foul mouth press conference that they must of known was going out live in the middle of the day.

    Hatton seems to be a nice bloke, I hope he does not get dragged down to Mayweather's class.

    Yup, just Dundee being nice to the Australian. If Crowe was Mongolian, Dundee would be talking about how Ghengis Khan would have been an ATG "if he had only been born in the right era."

    Dundee is not a good coach by any stretch of the imagine. He is a cheerleader and a ****ing good one at that. Strategy, science, training etc are not his areas of expertise.

    There is a reason he was with SRL and Ali and that is because to a large degree he is a yes man. They are bigger than boxing and don't want to be told what to do. There is a reason Ali didn't listen to Moore, he needed a yes man.

    Dundee is ok/good at reminding you to do ****ing obvious things like stay busy. He was a simple tactician who motivated you like a cheerleader, it did work.

    Dundee also things Roman Greenberg is special. He is pissing in the wind with that one. Greeberg is no special.

    I lost a lot of respect for him for staying with ali all that time. i think he should of took a stand. but he has proven to be very good trainer and manager/match maker over the years

    not the best trainer ever.
