Look at Joe C when he fought old Hopkins, he can’t put a convincing performance considering he fought a past prime fighter. The truth is Joe C was exposed in that fight with Hopkins that a 43y/o can put Joe’s ass in the blue mat (even if that was an off balance or whatever reason Joe C call it). British media are over the top in crediting their Brit fighters. Enzo knows it that’s why he is blaming the media on pressuring Amir.
Regarding trainers, well, he is acting like a member of the Mayweather family. The only difference is that the Mayweathers talk but they back it up and already proven great trainers w/ excellent fighters in their stable. Enzo talk s*** against other trainers but who has he trained world class besides Joe C (a protected fighter at best)? Stewart, Roach, Birmingham and others with the exception of Floyd never discredit other trainers’ ability. But they are the sought after trainers in the world of boxing. The great Lennox Lewis a Brit, work with Manny Stewart, look what he had achieved. Compare that to Joe C who can’t even unify all the belts at SMW division to where he reigns for what 10 years. Let’s wait after Joe C retires if Enzo can produce a world class fighter. Until then he better shut the f*** up... Amir can go anywhere he wants. That's what a fighter should do.. looking for the best and be with the best.. whether its in america or at home...
