Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
Really ? A name so cliched and comedy Irish I assumed it was a rouse and that Booth and Groves had just invented it. Apparently though he is real ?
George Groves appoints Paddy Fitzpatrick as trainer ahead of Carl Froch bout | Boxing News | ESPN.co.uk
I think it's this guy in the middle

Does anyone know who the hell he is ?
Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
It says here he met Roach in the Channel Islands, I think it may be Ross ;D
Outbox� - The Team - Paddy Fitzpatrick
Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
apparently he isnt real, they did him with makeup in sparring so close to a fight
so they are ducking the fight coz they are scared

Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
He is/was Jamie Cox trainer and used to work with Booth/Haye (he's been in Haye and Groves corner).
Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
I have been told by a very good source , that the reason Groves left Booth is he found up that Booth was not made of D.N.A like the rest of us , but he is made of theatrical makeup.
Groves said working with Booth was no longer real , it was just made up.
I'm not making this up guys.
Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
Iv seen characters like this, that like boxing, hang around gyms and pick up bits and pieces from whoever they are shadowing but dont really know how to connect the dots. Good cheerleaders that can fool a fighter with his blagging and make them feel good about themselves but really cannot bring any substance to a fighters career or help them during a bout and are basically glorified fitness unstructors. Some have success with their fighters but thats more to do with the individual fighter themselves.
It doesnt even surprise me he's from jersey either, he's latched on to Roach and said the right things and gone from there. A good blagger. :rolleyes:
Personally I don't think Trainers that have not fought themselves at any level can understand why fighters need to do certain things.

Patrick Fitzpatrick. There's a joke there somewhere.

The name name and that cheesy hat..... Just a caricature:rolleyes:
Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
That looks fake to me. Groves needs an experienced trainer going into the fight of his career.
Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
If I was George I would be hoping for a fortuitous cut in sparring.....although the chances of that are vanishingly slim.
Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
I've never heard of the bloke, must be a cunt. Fucks sake.....:rolleyes:
Re: Groves replaces Booth with "Paddy Fitzpatrick"
If he's been in the guys corner before, this can't be a bad call given what happened. Still have to figure it's quite the blow for Groves, but I still give him a good chance to win assuming he comes in proper.

I've known who he was for years. I've never even met him. Maybe if you took more interest in the whole of boxing instead of obsessing over a certain few fighters you'd appreciate it a bit more.

To be fair Fenster would you see much if you had your head that far up fury's arse.
