Oh it's a broken hand now. Last time it was because someone had come in and massaged Tommy Hearns' legs when Manny was out of the room....the guy always seems to have an excuse when one of his fighters loses, it amazes me...
I mean, he was moaning about Hamed not training well, surely it's part of a trainers job to insist they either do train, or find themselves a new trainer.
Am I mad????

I've heard the leg massage story, and i do find it amazing that he let Naz , Lewis (1st Rahman fight) and Harris , either undertrain or train to hard. If your the head man of the team you should be giving the orders.jamesmcdonnell wrote:Oh it's a broken hand now.

It is hard to walk away from the money if the fighter doesn't listen though.
The same leg massage bullshit they came out with when Klitschko gassed himself against Brewster.jamesmcdonnell wrote:Oh it's a broken hand now.

Hagler would have beaten Hearns 99 times out of 100 at that stage.
