James Kirkland drops Ann Wolfe, hires relative unknown

[Bardock]

Credit for what? Doing what I expect him to do which is obliterate Kirkland?

Nah, you're saying Kirkland is only coming for a paycheck. You know what you meant. Don't try to spin this.

Because he is. He was going to get destroyed regardless but this just makes it worse.

James Kirkland is just the master of baffling moves

I'm not sold on all of this stuff about Ann Wolfe.

The fact that he hired a conditioning coach means he's taking it seriously.

Maybe he feels his new trainer will give him skills he needs to win the fight that Wolfe can't provide. She's a great motivator, but I don't know to what extent she has as a teacher.

If James Kirkland buys in and actually listens to Gerald Tucker Sr, this might actually work out for him. From the bits of work that I've seen of him with the younger guys, he's a coach who looks pretty solid on the fundamentals and focuses on the "catch and shoot" style that's become synonymous with Vegas boxing.

I doubt that Kirkland ends up buying in though, especially with the type of hell it might take for Kirkland to get fully prepared for the fight.

Crap fight... Wheres the public cry for ggg vs canelo.no haymon so fight should get made easily

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

Kirkland will have been out the ring 18 months lol Canelo is such a fraud couldn't even beat a blown up welterweight.

[boliodogs]

Canelo beats the hell out of Kirkland any day of the year no matter who trains Kirkland. It will make a good excuse for Kirkland fans and Canelo haters if Canelo wins.

So essentially Kirkland has no chance and we should just download the fight and save ourselves the time and money.

What's even more of a fraud parade is that The Ring (ODLH owned) has him as a top 10 p4p
