Lets put yourselves in the shoes of the manager, the person making the important decisions in a fighters career.
I will start:
David Price
Tony Thompson I / TKO
I would never have taken the rematch. I would have advised David to take time off. Maybe go to other gyms sparring, taking advice from other trainers. I would have urged him to switch trainers, never taken Lennox Lewis onboard, his advice although with good intentions, Price cannot be that snapping jabbing 1-2 boxer Lennox was. I would have introduced someone like Alex Ariza to focus on training that allows him to be MORE agile and trains what ever fast twitch muscles he has.
- Pick a fighter.
- State who they fought last and what decision the fight went?
- Now explain how you would have handled there career from that point on?
