When people look to journeymen they are looking for tough guys that will give their prospects a few rounds. Your initial impression is that this guy was crap, he is, I know he has kids but there are better ways to earn money than being knockout every 3 months, he also is getting medical bans which don't allow him to fight regularly, thats how journeymen make there money and it is a noble trade but they fight week in week out cause they don't get stopped. You guys have to stop patting this guy on the back - when you are really thinking the same as I am... Please if i am wrong let me know, each to their own but I don't know what the disability befit is over there but that will soon become his only income. I can understand guys chasing their dreams but you have to draw the line somewhere, surely 13 losses from 15, a DQ win and a win over a guy who is 0-2, maybe it's time to consider other options.
    Actually he really did kick Zelenoffs a$$ in. He's young enough that if he gets proper training,he can be tweeked in to round. Charlie on the other hand should go away and pretend he never even heard the word boxing, the words tenative weak and slow come to mind. Andrews got heart,and decent hand speed,so we just need to work on his conditioning and form, since he's only 24,this is not insurmountable.
    He's not on a med suspension obviously,he won his last fight.
    NOT THIS TIME BUT HAS BEEN KO'ED IN 1ST OR 2ND ROUNDS IN ALL HIS OTHER FIGHTS, Your right man great talent, if he had at least survived in those fights i would be more inclined to agree
    If he listens to the trainers here,and his new trainer, he's got hope.
    The most important thing is we've got to get his weight down,he's too short to be fighting where he is.
    He's got workable with skills,but if your allways caught coming in(shut up Andrew you know its true) your allways going to be caught that way.
    If he does due dilligence,we can fix him.
    I cant believe I got an online project now,he isnt my fighter,Im not getting paid for this.
    Ok I understand my own reasoning, he's got heart, and I dont want to see him get his head handed to him,because nobody talked to him

    I like you, and have respect for what you are saying, good luck with your project. I just think this game is the toughest on earth and not everyone can just step in and compete, you have to have more than that.

    Ive watched tape on him,Andrew is almost hanging in his fights,he needs a little nudge over the edge. Im doing it as a freebie,but I think I can get him over the lip.
