When Jamie McDonnell went to work on Dave Coldwell’s pads moments before scalping the undefeated ledger of Japan’s Tomoki Kameda, the Sheffield trainer knew the Doncaster fighter was up against it. A thousand miles away from home, training issues in the build up, and large betting underdog, McDonnell had it all to. Coldwell had been placed in charge of McDonnell’s corner following Dave Hulley’s flying phobia but despite surrendering circumstances to the Japanese superstar, Coldwell was full of belief that they achieve their goal as long as McDonnell stuck to the plan.
“We had a plan going out there and it was the right plan but we knew we were going to overcome some nervy moments to get the job done,” buzzed an ecstatic Coldwell. “There was the issue with the training situation which couldn’t be helped and settling in Texas was difficult but I just had to keep Jamie’s mind on the job because any slight distraction could’ve been disastrous for us. He kept his focus brilliantly throughout and his mind was firmly on Kameda and that was evident by the manner he finished the job on Saturday night.”
