    Once again over at the Scene.

    Veteran trainer Billy ‘The Preacher’ Graham has reached out to the scene via a third party to confirm that he is set to resume training duties later this year. Graham says that he has “Got the itch again” and has his heart set on dusting off his coaching mitts.

    The Salfordian will make extensive use of his Atlanta-based, in-house training facility yet has admitted that he intends to launch his comeback here in Manchester, England. Graham had spoken about the possibility of returning to the fold during our last interview.

    Good to hear, he isnt the best technical coach, but he puts his heart and soul into his fighters. Cant wait to see him in the corner soon.

    Great news for whoever he ends up training.
    Great news for boxing as well.
    Top fella, met him in Manc a couple of years back and he was really friendly and happy to talk boxing for ages.
    Hatton dropped the ball big time getting rid of Billy.
