Natasha Jonas’ coach known as Lauren Worth “bang out of order” for lacking a scheduled face-off and questioned why his fighter is taken into account the underdog for Friday’s world title unification struggle in London.
Liverpool’s Jonas, 40, is the IBF and WBC champion, whereas Wales’ Worth, 30, holds the WBA belt.
After a sluggish begin, Wednesday’s information convention at The Dorchester resort in London picked up when coach Joe Gallagher took to the microphone.
He known as Worth “disrespectful” for not turning up on Tuesday morning for a face-off on the struggle venue.
Worth and her group blamed miscommunication from organisers, however Gallagher continued to steal the present.
“The agenda and narrative with Lauren is that she is an unbelievable fighter, this Ivan Drago-type character. That is simply not the case,” he mentioned, referencing the character from the Rocky movie collection.
Worth rolled her eyes at Gallagher’s feedback, replying: “He likes to speak.”
Requested why she’s going to win on Friday, Worth mentioned: “Too fast, too good and too younger.”
However Gallagher had the ultimate phrase, retorting: “I am unable to wait till after the struggle once we can say ‘too previous, too sluggish and too good’.”
