I honestly feel this man is the most underrated trainer in boxing today. Look what he did with Froch and now Joshua. He deserves A trainer of the year award.
1000% agree. And to think that some are saying that Joshua should move on to the likes of Roach, etc. LOL
Last I remember him, he was getting his arse whooped by Howard Eastman. Joshua is average, and has poor defense. If Joshua was 6'2 he wouldn't be that good. What credit should McKrakin get. He did his job, but the attributes that make Joshua good have nothing to do with McKrakin.
i give him major props for Joshua. round 7 to 9/10 joshua was guided tremendously. take the rounds off, get your breath back. Then bring out the beast again!
If Mike Tyson was 6'8 he wouldn't be that good, his style wouldn't work, in fact he would probably adopt a different style and hey presto he's a 6'8 guy who tries to box from the outside with a 75 inch reach. Unless we give him and 85 inch reach, let's give him less power as well. Now he is no longer the Mike Tyson we know. You can't say if a fighter didn't have this or that they'd be crap, because they are no longer the same fighter, probably wouldn't fight the same way, pure nonsense. SRR wouldn't have been that good if he'd been 5'4 with no boxing skills & no power. See how ridiculous that is
So what about froch then hell his full career people said he was mediocre What about all theses Olympic golds and other medals he as helped and had his hand in Jesus Let me guess he is racist for not picking haroon ummm sure your not agenda driven , me thinks maybe
I actually think Roach would be great for him When did AJ do best in the fight ? It was when he was being a come forward wrecking ball type fighter, Wlad couldnt handle it at all I dont see anyone who could really Roach is the man to go to for the aggressive come forward wrecking ball style
But toughness and reach don't keep your at or near the very top level and achieve what he did I mean look at ogogo bang average and I mean average yet he had a hand in him getting as bronze medal he by rights should have been no where near
Super Middleweight was thin. He got the robbery of the year against Dirrell. His best real win is Taylor or Kessler, and he ducked Adonis Stevenson.
The hurt runs deep Carlsberg don't do chins but if they did they would probably be based on Carl Foch,s And khan would want to buy one Can't duck a guy a champion in another weight division you never fought at He was a career smw
