I see nothing wrong with what he did. He made a shitload of money in the UK defending the WBO belt. As a fan of the sport, I wish he would have fought over here a couple years sooner. If he would have fought Lacy here, he would have got a ton more press and exposure and truly exercised his skill to the American media. The potential matchups after that fight would have been mouth watering
I agree his career could have been handled better with him pursuing the big fights sooner but that's the promotional side of boxing and has nothing to whatsoever to do with his trainers ability to prepare Joe for a fight.
