Joe Gallagher talks John Murray split and Gym moveJoe Gallagher talks John Murray split and Gym move
@britishboxers - BritishBoxers - It has been an emotional and testing few months for Manchester boxing coach Joe Gallagher - one of the most dedicated patrons of the British boxing scene. Gallagher as recently flitted from his old gym, which was based at Kerry Kayes' Betta Bodies in Denton.
Kayes recently asked Gallagher to leave his gym, because of a dispute over rent and use of his premises - stating that Gallagher wasnt involving him and his company brand CNP enough and felt pushed out by the trainer, who he says he let use his premises rent free.
When we sat down with Gallagher this week we asked him about the situation and his side of things - Gallagher isnt stuck for words in his honest assesment, as he tells his side of the story of the split with Kayes. Gymless Gallagher and his fighters were then contacted by Amir Khan, who offered them use of his 'Gloves' gym in Bolton, as it wasnt being used in the day.
Gallagher also talks about the breaking news that his long time pupil John Murray, who has been under his wing and teachings since he was a 14 year old school boy, had left him to train with Leeds trainer Michael Marsden and Kerry Kayes.
Murray had just sent Gallagher a text while we were there, to announce that he would be leaving him after 12 years together. In that time Murray claimed the English, British and European lightweight titles and was close to fighting for the world title.
Gallagher reads to us the text from Murray and reflects openly about the time and sacrafices he has made for him, sometimes neglecting his own personal life, in pursuit of boxing glory and feels upset at being treated that way after all his hard work and dedication to the John Murray cause. by Chris Maylett for
