Have you finished the book? When I read it from what I remember Jerome could not sell out a phone box but Dave kept putting him on shows and taking a financial loss on him each time.

I'd say that makes Dave pretty sound...
Read it all mate. I'd guess the author didn't agree with your last sentence and it was the backer taking any financial hits.

Was the Ambono fight "sound" match-making?
Dave was investing his own money with Spencer fern which was part of Coldwell promotions. As we know if you can't sell tickets you don't fight on shows its that simple. However Dave kept putting him on shows even knowing it would cost him financially. Didn't he even waiver is percentage cost for Jerome. Excellent book btw.

Really knowledgable fella. Also there's clear improvement in pretty much everyone he's started training or managing.

He worked wonders for Curtis Woodhouse.
Woodhouse trained initially with Coldwell but left to train elsewhere.

Spin a tale? I suggest you read Wilson's book. The money goes to a good cause.

Didn't he manage him til the end?
He was definetly involved when Curtis won the British.
Great achievement by both.

I'd love him to bring back Coldwell TV shows back off fight pass.I know he's probably earning better money now but those shows were fantastic whilst they lasted.some great domestics on There until matchroom got their grubby hands on it.

Dave coldwell as never took a financial loss on any one cause he's got no money you might mean the person he leached off and putting Jerome back in straight after he got well beat by the African is define try bad management. He wasn't looking after Jerome that is a fact I could write some proper stuff about him that would prove what e is

respectfully, u come across as someone extremely close to Jerome who is lashing out. Totally understandable, but unless u can be more specific its not really going to wash, cold well comes across as a lovely fella and many fighters say so.

I say that with all due respect to Jerome and his truly heartbreaking struggle. I think I speak for all of us in wishing him nothing but the best.

True - we need more info mate, just throw in a few "allegedly" or "I heard a rumour" or "somebody said" type stuff to keep the legal people off your case !

I was promoted by Coldwell and tbh he's a top bloke, looked after me which I mean gave me opportunities in my short pro career, good money and ticket percentages and promoted me a lot of the time(which all boxers need but dnt get) and also wanted the best for my career and his other fighter aswell. was always there for advise and still is,

Ok facts Jerome had been beat by serg and dropped fight before what manager puts his man straight back in with the same man.what manager has u on his show let's you weigh in then getting warmed up calls u to an office and says I am giving your opponent to another boxer as his fighter as just pulled. What person screams at a 9 year old kid in the gym and tells them in si many words get their shit together and get out. I was there when a 17year old boxer nutted him while sparring by the way he talked to him effing this and jeffing that and wnkers. What person who disliked a kids parent in the gym tells 1 of his senior boxers to smash the parent who was body sparring and ended up losing 2 front teeth.He pals ppl up with a method in it and has had peoples money .why as he stopped putting shows on well the person with the money grew wise. He ignored Jerome Wilson at the BBC of controls awards night that's 1 scum bag.why does he always walk about with bouncers round him why won't he go anywhere on his own why is he constantly looking over is shoulder.a nice guy don't have to do that. He talks to people like shirt. One of his own boxers strangled him at a board meeting Brendan slung him out of his gym. So all these people are bad and cold well is a nice guy well that's bull he's a little tosser

All I'm stating is facts and how can facts be wrong in fact I can recall a group of Asians smashing his car up why I guess he wasn't a sound bloke with them either. What he is good at is creeping he's nice to people who he will benefit from.

Unless any of the numerous guys in the know on here can back up those accusations, I simple don't believe it. Very few people are THAT bad. That post read like panto.
