He needs loads of work I'm not to sure he will make it into the top flight by the looks of him so far.

Hiring Brooks is a step in the right direction.

I dont think he has any chance to be honest, too many fundamental issues that need ironing out.

Euro level is the best he could hope for imo.

Brooks is a no-nonsense kind of guy, I think that's the way a good trainer needs to be with their fighters.
Tommy was also on 'The Contender' for a couple of seasons. He was a great mentor for those guys. I liked the way he didn't sugar coat things (especially in-between rounds of fights) with the guys he was coaching.
