    They both joined forces with the Dark Lord then seemed to quickly leave the gym without having one fight under him!

    Does anyone know the reasons behind this?

    Because he wants an outrageous % cut.

    He's also Burnett's manager. Two slices of the pie.

    I'd imagine both were failing to cut it. Hard to see a bright future for either of them.

    Booth highly over rated and his philosophy oriented training only for the weak minded.

    Trained a two weight world champion in David Haye. Took George Groves to Word Level which included a masterplan in a fight in which he was a massive underdog helping him to pick up the British title.

    Took Andy Lee from the edges of boxing wilderness to a Solid world champion, who is about to get a massive payday and big homecoming fight in Ireland.

    Has another possible world champion in the super talented Ryan Burnett. I say he is about A level.

    Simple really he does not want to waste his time as he cannot improve either.

    What qualifies him to be a trainer anyway, other than being the gay partner of David Gaye?

    Maybe both Price and Clev realised he was all smoke and mirrors and knew naff all about boxing and ditched him for someone who actually knew what they were doing...a little bit better than that fool?

    Clev won't live away from home. Proves as much with him having his mate as a trainer really

    Tell me more. Do tell. I'm getting a sniff of 'snake-oil salesman' off Booth. What is his background? How much credibility does he have? Has anyone that he has trained criticised him?

    Hes been over here in Ireland aat a press conference with Andy Lee and based on what little Ive seen he comes across as a bit of a smug, arrogant type - a bit of a cult figure. Andy was gushing praise for him sying he is

    and Booth never blinked.
    It was all a bit off-putting to be honest.
