    Just wondering what the consensus is.

    Personally I don't like the smugness. I think business wise he is in over his head and tries to cover that up with coxyness.

    I dont know cant really figure it out i dont think he is in over his head business wise i rememeber Frank maloney once saying that Adam Booth deserves every penny he earns at the negotiating table.

    I have to somewhat respect him for their vision and foresight and their business decisions so far they have done well for themselves in a tough environment. Dont know about him as a person but so far he has a vision and has had the balls to go through with it

    A few posters find him highly intriguing (i.e. wish to suck him off). Most couldn't care less.

    If he'd never met David Haye he'd probably be giving self-help seminars for a living.

    When Haye first called out Wlad in 2008 at that charity do Booth looked downright creepy standing behind Haye's shoulder leering

    I think Booth the trainer is a top class trainer which is the brains behind Haye and his tatics do be spot on for Hayes fight.

    Booth the businessman is a bit iffy I respect the way he and Haye are holding out for what they think is a fair deal. I dont mind them playing hard ball but at times you would think they will be able to sort a deal for a fight with one of the brothers. Sadly his cocky style may make things take a longer time than normal to set up fights getting the right deal for his fighter is all that hes about.

    I know they're both married men, but his and Haye's relationship creeps me out from time to time.

    He has the unnerving stare of a young Tim Curry at times.

    He enjoys this postition too much. Every opportunity he gets, he's on it. This is probs how he greets Haye everyday at the gym, or his house.

    To achieve what they have down is incredible undisputed cruiserweight WBA heavyweight champion . Most popular boxing star on these shores now making millions per fight. And to do this without a major promoter .

    has clearly done an amazing job. got his fighter to undispured champion within 20 fights and a world title fight at HW without a major promoter. Don't think anyone else has done that.

    Juggling too many jobs and is overrated as a trainer. Great partnership with Dave though.

    Think he's a bit bent.

    Also, he has a dark energy. I learnt that on ESB and its almost certainly true.
