Why does Joe Gallagher not own his own gym?

Post by TopGun »

It seems crazy that he still uses Khan's gym? Surely being a world renowned trainer now he would have his own? Surely he has the money too?

The bank won't lend him the money because he looks like he is on meth.

Because it suits him and Khan to have him there! Simple.

Yes I know. You would have hought he would want his own space though wouldn't you? With his own equipment etc? Most of his boys are Manchester based too so would you have thought it would be closer to there?

Each to their own I guess and he may not want the hassle but it does seem odd doesn't it?

He was kicked out of benchill when he fell out with jimmy Egan I think he was training his won lads in the gym so it was like having a gym in a gym, louvolite he bubbled the owner up to the sponsors of the gym over something, not sure about shannons gym, moss side he was taking the keys without asking, and Betta bodies I think Kerry kayes had enough of him

All the more reason for him to set up his own gym, what happens if he has a barney with Khan? He could end up with dozen fighters and nowhere to train them.

If it was one or two then fair enough, these things can happen - but the number of gyms and fall-outs and stories of him being a snide all point to the same direction (he is a dog-noncing bullshitter allegedly .....)

Owning gyms costs money, even with a successful stable trainers still need a day job to live. How much do you think they guy earns?

Why all the hatred toward Joe Gallagher? Seems decent enough when i watch his interviews.

The internet can be a cruel place. Dont just think of the man himself, he could have family, friends etc reading this dribble. All sounds rather unfounded to me.

It's been documented that he's been kicked out of several gyms, and I've read accounts from people who knew him that don't paint him in a nice light. I'm not saying this proves he's unpleasant fellow, but it seems like there is some backing to the dislike.

Did he get into a fight with one of his fighters as well? Or am I thinking of another trainer? I seem to recall that is happened while in Germany..
