Was there a falling out or did he just move over with Billy when he left team Fenech. I thought that Billy did most of the training with Vic when he was at Fenechs gym anyway.

It seems that Fenech has a lot of fighters who come and go. Jeff can't concentrate 100% on every fighter all the time and it always helps to mix things up once in a while. Jeff is a good trainer and so is Billy. I don't think there has to be a beef every time a fighter switches trainer...

Did that make sense? I think I've confused myself here... :-?

The story behind it was at the time Jeff was already in the USA kissing Tysons butt, Vic flew over to start training for his fight and was to meet up with Jeff, but similar to what happened with Green and Fenech, Jeff was more interested being part of Tysons circus act and left Vic wondering where the hell Jeff is, Vic had to hire a trainer in the USA for a couple of weeks until Billy Hussein arrived, by fight time Jeff then decided he wanted to take over and be in the corner so he can collect his percentage of the purse as trainer etc, so ithink Vic told him to go fornicate himself at that point.

Well written, not sure of the facts but you are correct about Fenech being part of the Tyson circus

Fenech could'nt train a dog to shit outside. He's alongside Oscar Suarez as a one of the worst trainers in boxing.

Former top fighter often make the worst trainers. The main reason being that they try to make a copy of themselves whether the guy is a boxer / fighter / puncher / whatever. A good example was Joe Frazier - his son Marvis was a relatively light hitting fighter with very good skill. Old Joe tried to turn him into a slugger :-?
