Daniel Dubios coach shows true colours as he | Boxing News

Daniel Dubois’ coach Kieran Farrell has shown his true colours as he is proud of serving to the heavyweight turn out to be a world champion. Farrell confirmed his ardour for boxing in a heartfelt assertion asserting that he has parted methods with the 27-year-old just weeks following his knockout loss to Oleksandr Usyk.

Farrell had teamed up with chief coach Don Charles the earlier 12 months and was current ringside for Dubois’ triumphs over Filip Hrgovic and Anthony Joshua. Dubois subsequently secured a bout against fellow world titleholder Usyk at Wembley last month, but was floored and halted in the fifth spherical of what marked a rematch of their 2023 encounter.

As Dubois appears to reconstruct his profession, Farrell has chosen to step away. In a assertion shared on social media, he declared: “I have made the decision to part ways with Team Dubois. In the 18 months with DDD we’ve achieved so much including an unforgettable night at Wembley, helping DDD become world champion has been truly rewarding on a number of levels. I wish Daniel all the best going forward.”

Farrell had claimed victory in his opening 14 skilled contests before going through Anthony Crolla in 2012, finishing the full 10 rounds for the English light-weight crown. However, Farrell was carried from the ring on a stretcher after collapsing with a mind haemorrhage.

He made a full recovery and pursued a teaching path before being recruited by Charles. Farrell’s exit follows Dubois placing a management settlement with Sam Jones, who also oversees Jack Catterall’s profession.

Promoter Frank Warren has urged Dubois to take inspiration from British boxing legend Frank Bruno following his defeat by Usyk. Speaking about the recovery period for Dubois, Warren said: “About six months out. It won’t be before then. I thought up until that (fifth) round it was a pretty good fight to watch. Daniel is obviously very disappointed. He has got to learn from it. He is only 27. I look at Frank Bruno for example, three times he fought for a world title and he got it on the fourth attempt.

“Daniel has received a world title so hopefully he will come back, but the underside line is it was Usyk’s evening and he is a particular, particular boxer. Daniel wants to be taught from this combat, to strive and be taught and develop the mental perspective that Usyk has. Daniel did not stick to the duty, he obtained careless, he dropped his arms and paid the price.

“For Daniel now, he’ll have a little break, think about things and he has got to resurrect himself. What level? He’s got to come back and make a statement. He needs to make a statement against a quality fighter like he did last time. There are lots of fighters over the years who have been beaten and come back even stronger. That is what he has to do. He can punch, he can hurt you and it’s just developing other aspects of his game.”
