I agree, would love DeGale to go to someone new but it'll never happen they are like family.Stevieb8006 wrote:dont rate him. overtrains his fighters and burns them out. not very impressive corner work when things arent going his way.macaca wrote:Jim McDonnell
IMO anyway.
Quite surprised he got mentioned so late I hold him very high in UK he is very very knowledgeable about the game but he at most shows so sees things up close regulary so very experienced he has a very fast growing stable too from what I see.Rexob wrote:What about Jon Pegg seems to be doing a good job with Eggington.

Nah, his son is a top bloke and a good trainer himself. None of his kids have had any issues over and above what normal teenagers go through. Junior is a future trainer of champions. He's worked hard, knows his stuff and learns all the time.
The Jon Pegg comments are spot on too. Done wonders with Sam. Took him on the road for his debut against a fancied home town kid. All of his boxers perform well, whatever their natural level may be. He gets the best out of his lads. Very sound, knowledgeable bloke.
I know Joe Gallagher gets a lot of praise, but he hasn't had a great deal to do because his boxers are already at a high standard when he gets them. Can't knock him for that. I think Jon Pegg is a better coach.
Hand up if normal teenagers get jailed for 7 years for dealing crack cocaine. Plus, he was 24 when police found 20 grands worth of crack in his flat.CharlesListon wrote:Wales wrote:His son was a very good amateur, think he went off the rails out the ring.Stevieb8006 wrote: Good call
