Yusaf Mack UPDATE!

[Kev]

Not taking anything away from TRAINER MONKEY, but JTandy is the MAN here besides ofcourse, Yusaf. I asked Jtandy to come form England and he scarficed everything to move here and work with Yusaf. It was JT game plans in all four fights he is by far the most underated trainner in the game. Yusaf and him work so well together.

Trainner Monkey was on with all his points and I am sure him and JT will talk in the future.

Also someone ask if Mack hits hard I would say his considering he drop Andrade. Then beat Henry with one good arm and one bum elbow.

Only good things for Mack to come. OUR SADDO HOUSE BOXER!!!!!!!!!!!

From
Rory Donadio BARRON71 Manager of Yusaf Mack

He impressed me last night Rory, sorry I gave you a hard time a few weeks back but I didn't know who you was back then! I appreciate how a small team like yourself is planning an assualt on the light heavyweight crown and that Mack is definitely looking good in the division. Good luck for the future guys,

[barron71]

Hey Guys!! First off Mack would like to thank all his supporters!! Like I said before all fans get free tickets and rooms to our next fight!!

It was a heck of a fight! Mack fought his ass off. I did not tell anyone but Yusaf only sparred for 10 rounds in his shorten 5 week camp. His elbow was giving him alot of problems and it went out in the third and he really could not get his left hook off. Boy did he get all his other punches off. He fought a very smart fight!! Henry was very strong but I have to say Mack was just as strong. If he could of sparred all his rounds he might have beed stronger. Both kids should alot of heart tonight.

Mack once me to tell all the SADDO BOYS HE IS GLAD YOU BACKED HIM not like all the rest!

ANY THOUGHTS who we should fight? I have some....

Rematch with Barrio or maybe Stiglietz. If Yousef hits Naco with the punches he hit Henry with, he will send him to Colombian Dreamland.

Good to see Mack win. Should of been a UD instead of a SD. Mack has good boxing skills. But he has no problem mixing it up. I like that.

What did concern me about Mack was that his mouth was already hanging open by the third round. And Henry did take most of the final rounds. So I'm guessing stamina might still be a problem. But overall it was a good performance.

Congrats to Mack but like VD said he tired over the second half. But it was good to see him get a second wind in the 12th & come back strong! I don't think there are stamina issues more that Henry's natrually bigger size played a role... saying that do you think there is any chance of Mack returning to 168? The division is wide open & a fighter with Macks skills could make a statement!

At 175 I would love to see Mack fight Cloud!!!

Mack has blamed his 2 losses on struggling to make 168. If that's the case than he shouldn't return there

[Trainer Monkey]

Rory cleared it all up,next time we win even bigger

[Hunter]

Yusaf did look good, fast hands and good power, but Henry looked terrible...it almost seemed like he was annoyed to be there and was just kind of walking in unafraid of Yusaf.........and Henry paid the price for sure.....

Great news that your still consulting Yusaf Monkey hopefully next time both him and his team will be aware of it

Yeah I know but one excuse is as good as another!

I'm just saying that Henrys greater size seem to wear Mack down, I think if he can make 168 without much trouble thats where I think he belongs.

In saying that he came in at 174 for this fight & looked pretty cut so it may be to much of a stretch to make super-middle again...

Funny Bilbo,especially as I have Rory's number in my rolodex.
I guess he forgot about the work we did for his other fighter huh?
Slipped his mind or something,especially the way he said I was an UNPAID consultant on this fight.
Key word is UNPAID,I didnt make buh off of this. And Im not in the least annoyed at that. I am annoyed that guys like you can have the reality beaten in to your face like a sledgehammer,and still choose to be a total dick about it.
Its bad for my buisness,and anything is bad for my buisness is bad for my family asshole

The reality of what beaten into my face? That they didn't know about your 'consultation', that reality?

The thing is Monkey that you make these comments that only damage your credibility. To claim that it was your gameplan that won the fight for Yusaf Mack and that you generously donated this valuable information for free is just silly, especially considering his actual trainer and manager are members of this site and have stated you didn't consult at all.

Just chatting to someone about an upcoming fight isn't consulting. It's like Lefty meeting his idol David Haye prior to the Wlad fight and telling him that Wlad has a suspect chin and can gas late in the fight, and then if Haye wins by a late stoppage claiming that Haye stuck to his gameplan, and that he didn't even charge for his 'services'

Its just silly, Yusaf's win had nothing whatsoever to do with you so to start talking about 'we will win even bigger next time' just makes you look silly, and also detracts from the real guys who trained him and Yusaf himself.

I like you a lot as a poster TM, you're always fun to debate with and have strong opinions on things which is good but you so often create posts that damage your own credibility. There are several trainers and promoters on this board and you try to equate yourself to the best of them but in doing so put yourself below the level of Stacy Goodson who does at least manage some real professional fighters like Osin Fagan and Bobby Gunn.

You hang a bag in your shed and have some toughman competition friends come round to spar with and you think that makes you the same as Freddie Roach or Manny Steward. You are basically the Kid Thunder of boxing trainers.

All I'm saying is you'd have a lot more respect if you stopped trying to create stories or exaggerate casual conversations turning them into consultations etc.

Henry isn't some kind of tricky guy to figure out, he's pretty basic with his offense. I think Mack showed good ring generalship, he controlled the distance well, and the pace by tieing up when he needed to, very smart fight by him. Only things he needs to work on from that fight stamina and controlling himself when he has someone hurt. BTW his power is fine, he hurt Henry as much if not more than Diaconu did. Henry is just a tough s.o.b.

[barron71]

No contest sounds right to me HENRY IS ONE TOUGH MOTHER!! Everyone forgets MACK dropped ANDRADE!

Regarding the stamina we only had a 5 week camp and Mack did 10 rounds of sparring from the ELBOW. He wa not in MATCH SHAPE and it did show, but the team did there job!

I like DIACONU or Shawn George next? Anybody have thoughts about that?

Also Cloud wont fight us he is sitting for his chance at Dawson or the winner of Muriqui woods fight.

[Galaxy]

I think Diaconu is the bigger fish but it would more than likely have to be overseas & I'd hate Mack to get set back because of home cooking. Its a very winnable fight that Mack could use his speed & his better fundermentals to his advantage.

George is probably the way to go, has some name recognition after the Byrd victory, can be made in the states & is the easier fight imo. I see Mack scoring a KO there!
