A top-level trainer helps world-class boxers over the line.

Eddie Futch

Eddie Futch was a former amateur with a 37-3 record. He frequently sparred with Joe Louis despite being a much smaller man. When he decided to turn professional, doctors refused him a license due to a heart murmur, so Futch instead delved into the training world, where he left a legendary impact on so many greats.

After a few decades as a trainer, Futch produced his first World Champion, Don Jordan, in 1958. His most famous student was Joe Frazier. Futch is responsible for the legendary bob and weave style Frazier relentlessly fought with, using his size disadvantage to favour him. This style helped Frazier to defeat Ali in the ‘Fight of the Century’.

Futch would go on to become Ali’s kryptonite, training Ken Norton and masterminding the game plan to defeat Ali once more. He also trained Riddick Bowe all the way from his debut to the heavyweight crown.

Futch worked with so many great fighters. His students also include: Alexis Arguello, Bob Foster, Marlon Starling, Virgil Hill, Wayne McCullough, Trevor Berbick, Freddie Roach, Mike McCallum, Bobby Chacon, Mike Spinks, Larry Holmes and many others

"I thought I would be done by 40 and now my aim is to box until I am 45. I am still fit, never out of shape and 26-year-olds don't keep up with me.

"Beating Justin would mean the world to me - 14 years of boxing all boils down to one night.

"I will beat Justin, then after a defence I will look at the English title. Could a British title eliminator pop up? Who knows.

"Never say never, but I never ever dreamt of being a British champion. I wasn't even a massive boxing fan."

His most recent travel exploit was a December trip to the Mexico City gym of renowned 82-year-old trainer Ignacio 'Nacho' Beristain.

Hall of Fame inductee Beristain, who has trained dozens of world champions including Oscar de la Hoya, Ricardo Lopez and Juan Manuel Marquez, was surp
