A new head coach 48 hours before his fight? What happened to his other one?

I'm sure it will make all the difference and he will come out floating like a butterfly and stinging like a bee etc. What a great future champion we are witnessing.

Definitely not just riding the coattails of his grandfather's name into the ****ing ground. Who's the next journeyman who gets to beat Ali by proxy?

I think my cynicism is justified for how much this gets shoved down our throats. In Mammoth's thread, I hadn't even watched the twitter video but they got it all hammed up with dramatic string music and everything. Holy hell...

Nico Ali needs help on his defense. He got hit way too much in his last fight and almost lost. Hopefully this guy can fix some of his defensive flaws this Saturday.

I hope this guy can activate his latent Ali powers.

His other trainer has many other fighters to work with, also they have talent too! Well, he’s still going with a Kronk connected trainer, but an artist by profession so he will need to be able create a masterpiece to make this work.

Now, now he will be absolutely unstoppable

LOL wtf that guy Richard T. Slone aint a boxing trainer I always see him at boxing events trying to get signatures from fighters of his Art and then sell them. The guy is a painter and does boxer art. Why would Nico Ali Walsh choose such a random trainer who paints boxers with no training experience?
