This is a must watch/listen for any true boxing fan. Don wears his heart on his sleeve and discusses everything about the camp and the AJ fight itself and his previous exploits in the boxing world. I don't have a link for it, maybe someone else can put that up.
It's an absolute must listen so enjoy it.
He definitely isn't happy with Spencer Fearon

He also came across very well in a Talk Sport interview alongside Spencer Oliver.

Not many people are.
Darren Hamilton isn't after Spencer allegedly robbed him.
This is a man who pretended Daniel Kinahan was godfather to his kids, and who was happy to be head of pseudo-charity MTK Foundation to launder and legitimise a narco-terrorist. I'm glad he's back on universal credit.
His remaining suit is looking decidedly threadbare.
Conman, conjob, found out. It is glorious to see.
Long live King Don.

Yes, it's a fascinating 40ish mins. He's an articulate and coherent chap.

He beat exactly one pro with a winning record (1-0!) in his entire career. why he was ever given a platform is beyond me

Fearon is a fekking idiot who gets very shirty if you disagree with anything he says on social media. The knowledge my arse.
'There was a time when Donovan Razor Ruddock was the most feared heavyweight on the planet' ........ what? You are talking out of your arse son. Bloody pillock.

When Rob Tebbutt called him out Spencer sent him weird messages accusing him of being gay, Rob published them, Spencer is a low life.
Spencer will hopefully be finished after this most recent debacle, he'll be taking his suit into cash converters soon enough. He talks like he's made it but you know he's overridden his leccy metre.
Anyone remember him getting sent to prison?

when he was in prison he spent the very short sentence clinging to and crying on the shoulder of Terry Dunstan.

Have always been surprised Don Charles seems to be out the conversation when talking about the best British trainers or ‘who would you want to train you/your fighter if he turned pro.’
Now that I think of it there are a lot of pre Madonna’s in boxing and you can tell Don will take no bull in the gym. For example when David Haye was clearly not training properly for Bellew 1 and Shane McGuigan seemed happy of the PR I can imagine Don Charles would be dragging Haye to training by his hair and this getting sacked during camp.

I'm not particularly impressed with any of the new breed of trainers.
It seems they take on established pros who want to be the boss in the gym.
The old school is the best, likes of Tibbs, Bowers, Don Charles, Bryan Lawrence, James Cook, Glyn Rhodes to name a few
Of the younger ones, I rate Lockett

Tunde deserves no fortune, he has ended Yarde's career.

Agreed , lot of them are just celebrity trainers , talk a good game , and could'nt spot mistakes if it hit them in the eye , Trying to look good on pads does not make a good trainer . Just look at the performance of AJ on them pads , , practicing and perfecting the wrong way to do it , NO TRAINER worth his salt would allow that .
Practice makes Perfect ,, absolute crock of shite
ONLY
PERFECT PRACTICE makes PERFECT

I can see why the OG trainers get annoyed by Davison acting like he invented film study when it is just a basic thing that everyone has been doing forever. They were breaking down film in the Joe Louis days FFS.

Was he actually not training? I thought that was a piss take to help hype the fight.
And if he wasn’t training I’d guess it was more because he had an injury that they were managing rather than laziness especially with him flying out to see a specialist on fight week.
