Although you cannot put full blame on coaches when your fighters don't perform, you have to hold the trainer somewhat accountable even though your dealing with grown men. Often I talk to trainers and they said it's as bad as babysitting fighters no matter how old…

Also if you pay close attention to his left hand, his knuckle seems out of place. Maybe his hand is not fully healed yet. Time will tell this coming Saturday.…

I know alot of fans are upset at Miguel Cotto fighting Austin Trout for the championship belt but what alot of people don't realize is that he is close to the end of his career and he get's to keep alot of the money in this fight. Miguel Cotto is the one promoting it with his Cotto Promotions company. If he would have fought Manny Pacquiao, he would have to take the lesser share of the profits, shared the promotions with Toprank, and also have to fight at a…

Is having a strong chin something you have to be born with or can it be developed? Although Amir has the goods to be a descent fighter, he is not a complete package.
