I know you are, that's why I laughed... Because it's true! Wanna be in tip-top condition and get great sparring? Visit Joe. Wanna learn how to hit and not get hit? Don't visit Joe. Joe is a top coach, but Booth is MILES in from of him. He hasn't had a fraction of the amount of fighters that Joe has had yet he has achieved more. Haye: Heavy weight champ & Crusier weight champ. Lee: Middleweight champ. Joe had like a 50 fight run where he was undefeated, and not a SINGLE world champ in those 50 fights! Groves would have had a title by now had he stuck with Booth as well.
After last nights showings I think Quigg is probably better than I thought he wasand Frampton probably isn't as good as I thought he was. This said, Kiko has had a long and hard career which looks like its caught up with him to get blasted out in 2 rounds and I still think Frampton is a class above Quigg even if his ceiling isn't as high as I thought it was. Unless Rigo is in decline then Carl won't beat him. I used to think he had a decent chance as a live underdog. LSC? Any of those three probably beat him fairly comprehensively
To be fair to JG, I think he get's the absolute most out of more limited fighter's in his stable who probably wouldn't achieve as much without him e.g. Paul Smith vs Abraham, Crolla etc. I think those kind of fighters are great with the gameplans he set's out, however with someone with world-class ability I haven't seen him be able to do the same yet. That's not a slight on him, as like I say, he's taken certain fighters much further than they would probably get to otherwise without him.
What, the first round where he barely took a flush shot? I guess Mayweather went life and death with Hatton in your book. Frampton fans:tired
When Brian Hughes trained Scott, Scott had excellent head and lateral movement. Jolly Joe has eradicated those skills from Scott's repertoire, which may well come back to haunt Scott.
