    Russ Anber, his gym, and his prospects....

    Can someone tell me about this guy, I only heard about him on here...Is he a trainer? Or just owns a gym? or what?

    How's his gym, is the trainer? Or have other people training fighters...? How are the fighters? Can someone give me some info about him and the prospects at his gym...

        I don't know if he's still doing it, but Russ founded and ran a gym out of Montreal called, 'Ring 83 Boxing Club'. I'm going to assume he's still training fighters out of there, because he's still a very active trainer...He's more involved with amateur boxing nowadays, though, so besides Adonis Stevenson I can't recall any of his other fighters off-hand.

            Besides being on Bute's nuts all the time, I don't think he's involved with him too much, and if he is it would be in a secondary position (though I've seen a few of Bute's fights and have never seen Anber in his corner)...Stephen Larouche is Bute's head trainer.

            I've also never heard of him being involved directly with Pascal.

              I'm not sure Anber is still acitve with that gym or not, but he does a lot of work with ameture boxing in Quebec in Canada.

              His show, In this Corner, is a weekly boxing show out of Canada:

              Stay up to date with the world of boxing on TSN, featuring the latest news, fight results, rankings, highlights, analysis, and updates on top fighters, championship bouts, and major events.


              Last I heard he's no longer with Adonis Stevenson, and I don't think he works with Pascal or Bute either.

              He does various corner work for differnet fighters. I think he worked cuts for the Sandman in his fight agaisnt Lacy.

              Ask Ice, he'd be able to answer all these questions. He and Russ are tight.

                  Russ doesn't train Pascal but Pacscal trains at RING 83 (I sparred him there. Russ has a gym FULL of amateur guys and yes he started out Otis and Howard as well as Hercules Kyvelos. He also had two other olympians (for their own countries) in Ron Donaldson and a 132 pounder named John Kellman.
