[Shadow boxer 3]

anybody know what happened with him and Anne wolf ??

[imisupu]

Why did he drop Anne Wolf? She was doing good with him I thought!

[starsjuicebar]

He's been out of the ring for two years come March and Adams is better coaching the lower level fighters.

Maybe she dropped him for violating his probation more than once and didn't want to deal with him anymore. I remember seeing an interview with her where she stated that Kirkland would be out soon and they would pick up where they left off. But that was several months ago so anything could have happened...

I wonder if he's going to get back to 154. I have a feeling he will compaign at middleweight for a while.

I think the main reason he's no longer with Wolfe is because they want to get him out of texas and away from trouble.

And do you guys even know who Adams is?? he's a fantastic trainer. He is no nonsense, he's an ex-drill sergeant. He WILL keep Kirkland in check or he'll be dropped. Wolfe is great for conditioning and strength, etc, but she's limited I believe in what she can do for Kirkland she wants him to be a beast and that's it, but Adams will correct the obvious flaws in Kirkland's game. It will not be an option for Kirkland to ignore these flaws any longer. Adams doesn't play around, he isn't in it for money he's turned down millions of dollars for the same reason. For example he was working with Edwin Valero and Valero was ignoring certain things and wanted to train his way and Adams dropped him just like that, despite all the potential money.

I think it's a great move for Kirkland.
