Jim McDonnell to train James DeGale

More like alternative therapy coach - little tramp

 

McDonnell did some great work with Danny Williams, had him pushing cars down Brixton High Street and sleeping in oxygen tents. He won't be able to do much with Degale though, he's not made from the pro game and is a twat.

 

Keep your hands up and your chin down !

Thats al he says

 

The tent was a load of mumbo jumbo and anyone could order Williams to push a few cars around or hit a tyre with a big hammer.

A proper trainer is meant to improve the fighter's skills which McDonnell plainly hasn't with any of the fighters he's worked with. Furthermore, the corner work and 'advice' when Williams fought Vitali was BY FAR the worst and biggest shambles I have ever seen!! It was terrible:yikes

 

Jim McD is a nice bloke but his training hasn't impressed me to date.

 

achillesthegreat, have you been trained by him at some point or watched him train?

 

Did Jim train Danny for the first Audley bout?

 

then get sparked by kenny vice

 

Degale with the ingles couldnt of seen that

 

This guy hit the nail on the head 4 years ago.

 

he knew his stuff

 

For the same reason,just in my opinion,that we were saying it wouldn't have been practical for Dave Price to move to London.May be senility on my part,but I thought McDonnell trained James for George Groves.Put me right somebody.I think James is a good prospectMust admit to rooting for George against him,but Id still like James to do well,but much in the same way I think Gavin should step up,Id like to see Degale do so soon.

 

When does he start?

 

I meant i dont think Degales style would suit Dominic Ingle
