    Great move after the split from Tibbs. Booth will whip him into shape. Can't wait till Saunders schools Canelo in a one sided boxing masterclass. It's happening fellas.

    His defense will be wide open with Booth.

    Think Booth will instill the discipline between fights BJS needs and Adam will soon walk away if he gets the impression Billy is short-cutting. My only reservation is Booth has had his best success with explosive punchers...

    Yeah that was my concern too. However he did lead Lee to a world title. He's a master of the game plan. Also always calm and says the right things in the corner.

    That and the fitness aspect really encourages me. I was disappointed in the Tibbs split but this makes me feel positive.

    Great move I think, Booth is still one of the best around. But if Billy pisses him off or starts slacking Booth will walk away from him.

    BJS doesn't need help with his gameplan or ring IQ. He's a brilliant natural boxer and knows what he's doing in a boxing ring, it's purely his overall motivation and fitness levels that need massively improving.

    Yeah, I'm not a massive fan of Jimmy Tibbs work. I think Booth is a definite upgrade. I can see him and BJS meshing well.

    BJS already has the skills so if it ain't broke don't fix it, he just needs strength and conditioning. Sounds like Booth works his fighters hard in the gym and BJS could benefit from a trainer that doesn't take BS and will push him hard in the gym.

    great move. Booth, Mcguigan and Gallagher are the best trainers in the UK imo
