    I think for me McGuigan at this moment in time. All gyms have their ups and downs but what he has done with Okolie is impressive

    I still think Booth is the one with the best Boxing brain. I feel that Peter Fury is very overlooked.

    Mcguigan for me but ultimately results depend on the boxers. A world class trainer can make a boxer the best boxer they can be but that doesnt mean the boxer will be world class if that potential isnt there in the first place. Shane has been fortunate that he has a lot of supremely talented boxers come through his gym and this is probably deservedly so as he has had a lot of success which attracts the boxers. Made Okilie look truly world class and squeezed the last bit of quality out of Groves. Hayes was always going to be a dud IMHO. Was always disappointed he couldn't get Campbell a world title as i truly believe Campbell is one of the best boxers Britains produced who havent won a world title but i think that is just a sign of how strong the LW division has been over the last 7 or so years. Disappointing to see Tibbs name not considered in this poll tbh.

    Peter Fury is no1 for me.
    Grant smith is decent.
    Shane is decent
    Davison has built and been gifted a good team round him which puts him up there.

    Tesco Joe Gallagher isn't very good but surely will get lots of votes because he is such a friendly lovely guy. honest.

    Thats the one name I forgot about :duh defo would have put Mark Tibbs on the list.

    Agree about Campbell. Though I think he was unlucky because the WBC were being corrupt similar to how they've been with Dillian Whyte. Looked like he was gonna be ordered to face either Javier Fortuna or Zaur Abdullaev for the vacant WBC , fights he would have won. Then WBC changed the goalposts and sanctioned the P4P number 1 at the time Lomachenko to fight him for it ( the hardest fight possible)/ Haney was getting given belts by email.

    I don’t think any of them are exceptional at the minute. I abstain.

    I'd have to say McGuigan

    With Peter Fury and Grant Smith being very underrated.

    Ben did a great job getting Fury's weight off and mojo back but he has otherwise reaped the benefits of the work of other trainers.
