What do you think of James Kirkland ?

[killersheep]

It isnt the trainer,his fundamental flaws are all his own,he doesnt trust his jab,and tends to pursue right to his fighter. I highly doubt that the all time greatest female fighter didnt mention cutting the ring or getting his jab going. Put him in with Emanuel Roach McGirt III esquire,and unless he decides to trust his jab and cuts the ring,you'll get the exact same result

Using Emanuel as an example look what he did with Klitschko with his jab, he went from not using it to using it to dominate his opponents.

I allways thought Klitschko had a decent jab,Kirkland doesnt want to use the damned thing,he wants to press.If I wanted to improve him,Id have him slip in more rather then just pursue the way he does. He's fundamentally solid, but there are things he need to work on. Actually Id have him fight like Ann,some guys just dont get it.

Klitschko did have a good jab, as does Kirkland, the problem is not using it as was the case with Klitschko.

Kirkland is TV friendly.

It is also nice to see that he has cracked the top 10.
