Comments Thread For: Kovalev's Manager on Training With Buddy McGirt For Alvarez

Great move if he listens

If he listens ???
Come on Shadow, if Kov has shown us anything, it’s that he’s hearing impaired.

I hope Kovalev wins. There are going to be a lot of posters here who will have to eat their words.

Correct, rooting for Kov doesn’t make u a racist, but on the same token, hiring another Black coach doesn’t absolve u from being a racist either.

Kov now has a track record of racist remarks and behavior. So him rehiring a Black coach isn’t surprising considering it was a Black coach who got him to the pinnacle of his acclaim in the first place (David Jackson/Don Johnson)

How the phuk you can call someone a racist if you hire a trainer of color to train you.
So Ali was a racist? he called white boxer a honkey and cracker, Tyson and Hopkins is a racist as well calling out white boys? Yes!

Buddy is a lazy **** who sits on his ass all day. Terrible choice.

Then he'll probably get TKO'd again! Dude got heart. He kept getting up unlike Quitting Rig. and Walters...

Alvarez is no joke! I expect another Good fight. The ones you dont see are the ones that put you on your ass.

In more recent times, let's not forget Anthony Joshua calling black people the superior race. Sad state we live in.

Boxers Writer Association named Buddy trainer of the year in 2002. That was good because there were a lot of good trainers around that year. And he has trained all of these fighters below. Like the article said, it should help Foldalev IF she listens.

Notable Fighters as Head Trainer:
Lamon Brewster
Nate Campbell
Joel Casamayor
Vernon Forrest
Arturo Gatti
Paul Malignaggi
Hasim Rahman
Antonio Tarver

Unfortunately, this will be the end for Kovalev. He is mentally weak at this stage while Alvarez is strong and confident. Buddy McGgirt can't do nothing for him. Kovalev quits after this fight. His loss to Ward has scarred his soul. He knows he can be beaten. He is no longer the Krusher. Kovalev reminds me of Mike Tyson who was a bully as long as you let him but when faced with adversity he started to crumble. Alvarez KO 5 Kovalev.

It's funny how Kovalev told ward before their rematch that he was going to 'end his career'. I guess he was referring to himself.

Actually, that trainer (Abror Tursunpulatov, http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Abror_Tursunpulatov) blamed himself for the loss against Alvarez, so, I guess, it was by mutual consent.

Who else can he blame. He is not exactly going to come out and say it was Kovalev fault
