Galal Yafai delighted to have Rob McCracken in his corner on a big night
Galal Yafai waved goodbye to Team GB after winning Olympic gold last year but he will have a familiar face in the corner for his professional debut this weekend following his appointment of Rob McCracken as trainer.Yafai, the youngest of three fighting brothers, was hot property after topping the podium in the flyweight category at Tokyo 2020 but he has decided to continue under the tutelage of Team GB’s long-time performance director.The esteemed McCracken, who oversaw Carl Froch’s career and is in limbo as to his role with Anthony Joshua, at least publicly, is a welcome addition to Yafai’s camp as he looks to back up his amateur success in the paid ranks.
