At Brendan Ingle’s legendary Wincobank gym, Dave Coldwell trained alongside the likes of ‘Prince’ Naseem Hamed, Johnny Nelson and Junior Witter. Winning his debut in 1996, his pro career highlights include holding the Central Area Flyweight Title. His experience in the ring proved invaluable as he made the transition from boxer to trainer taking fighters like Curtis Woodhouse to British Title cont
ender, Lee McAllister to Commonwealth Champion, Kell Brook to British Champion and Ryan Rhodes to British, WBC International and European Champion as well as WBC World Title Challenger. Dave also became Head of Boxing at Hayemaker Boxing and played an integral part of David Haye becoming World Heavyweight Champion and was also part of the team behind George Groves becoming British & Commonwealth Champion. Now an established promoter, manager and trainer, he’s been instrumental in staging some of the UK’s biggest battles. As well as hugely successful events at the o2 and ECHO Arenas, the 2011 Small Hall clash laid on at Magna, Rotherham was a complete sell out smashing all previous ticket sales in the process and earning rave reviews from the boxing press.
