This is the first time I see a boxer not having a trainer for himself, it's like playing a basketball being a playing coach. wow.. this is just unique, hope it will have an impressive result and he could beat the heavy favorites here.
Some trainers are hired and not really related to the boxers, while some are close friends and had been coaching the boxer since he started his career. But in Brook's case, his trainer simply declined due to the pandemic and the risk of going abroad
(clearly stated by Baofeng). Ingle also stated that,
He does his own thing. Like I say, he’s 34, he has three kids, he’s made his money. We’ve had a good run.
which simple indicates that whether Brook has Ingle's coaching and training or not, Brook knows his thing as Ingle trusts him that he can.
It's still different when you don't have a trainer on your side, that will be experience during the actual fight as trainers also dictate what to do as they see better what the opponent is throwing on their fighter. I was just amaze that this things happened, like I said, it's my first time to see it, but you are right, that is due to pandemic as well, I just don't read that part maybe as I got excited to comment when reading he is training without a trainer.
Hence, this might be a close fight,
but Brook has more chance.[/quote]
Good luck to that, beating an undefeated and a young fighter is a very hard task.
