Boxing – 27. dec. 2019 – at. 16:18 Trouble in the Pallet-wings: the Wreck shortly before the WORLD cup match
She changed his usual training team out with the bahamanske heavyweight Sherman Williams – what has she done with just five weeks to his life’s struggle, namely the WORLD cup-the fight for the IBF title against the 28-year-old argentinian Brenda Carabajal.
towards his main battle must Mogens Citizens 30-year-old boksestjerne Sarah Mahfoud namely, the training of the 47-year-old ’The Tank’ Williams.
It is there is actually two reasons for this, says the unbeaten fjervægter, who recently moved from his homeland Hillerød to Copenhagen.
Sherman has come to Denmark in order to train me and Ditlev (Rossing, ed.). We can train in the middle of the day. At times, it undeniably makes my preparations for the WORLD cup-the fight much easier, says Sarah Mahfoud.
The bahamanske heavyweight from Florida, USA, comes with a huge experience, stresses Sarah Mahfoud, who already has trained with Sherman Williams in a week’s time.
– I am very positive, says Mahfoud, who certainly do not believe that the timing is risky.
– I am extremely pleased with everything I have gotten from Hillerød – my former training team has been there right from the start. But Sherman just has a different approach to things – it is in no way risky. And the training has gone really well so far, she says.

It was Mogens Citizens idea, but Mahfoud, who ultimately made the decision.
– of course That was a really tough decision. I started my career in Hillsboro and I am deeply grateful for everything they have given me.
the Expert: Tactical maneuver from Mogens Palle
Brian Mathiasen agrees that Sarah Mahfouds drastic decision may appear risky.
However, he points out, however, that it is a tactical maneuver, as the bundrutinerede Mogens Palle have used in the past when his big boksestjerner really had to toptunes to the great boksebrag.
I have always said to professional boxers: you have only one career, and should take care of. It can be over in a heartbeat, if In is and fiddling around on the floor. A boksetræner has converted many years, and the photographs must first and foremost think of themselves and what is best for themselves, says bokseeksperten, however, concede that the timing in this case may appear merciless ift. Steen Sørensen.
But such is the gamete, stresses Brian Mathiasen.
– If Mogens Palle believes that Sherman (Williams, ed.) can contribute more and make Sarah Mahfoud even better than she was with Scott in the ringhjørnet, then it is the right decision – but I can easily put myself in the former træners place. Emotionally it is, indeed, a great loss. It is always very emotional to lose his boxer – for you coming very, very close to each other.
Sherman Williams properties as boksetræner in the gym can only be measured on Mahfouds results in the ring – not before, beats Brian Mathiasen fixed, which, in turn, believe it is an excellent argument that the Danish fjervægter now no longer have to spend unnecessary time wasted in the daily life on the transport – time, which can be used to recover.
– Mogens Palle has always been a supporter of the american coaches – he has done that before exactly the same, when Danish boxers have had to fight the big fights. It may be, he has thought, that it, as Sarah has shown, until now, not rows, if she is to meet the big guns – that she must be put ten percent on, so she is better prepared, ” says Brian Mathiasen.
even Though, according to Brian Mathiasen are many excellent boksetrænere at home, which can develop the Danish amatørboksere, so is professional boxing after all, almost a completely different discipline, and requires therefore often also a different mindset and a completely different approach to boxing, he stresses. There can bokseeksperten easily follow Mogens Citizens arguments.

But a coach trained in the UNITED states, which is still an active professional boxer and has fought against big names such as the Holyfield – it is not every day you will have the opportunity to get a coach with the experience, ” says Mahfoud, despite a smooth break with the now former coach Steen F. Sørensen, however, can easily understand that the sudden decision has caused a degree of annoyance:
I can understand That, but we had a good talk about it. No acid pits. And I hope they come in and see the fight. It would be cool if they came with up in the ring, when I’ve got the belt – it is, after all, also those who have brought me to here, where I am today.
But so what, when Sherman travel back to the UNITED states?
– So far, I have not thought of yet. But, I am sure, must fix the time – right now my focus is my WORLD cup match. Preparations need to be in the top!
Create surpluses in everyday life
According to Sarah Mahfoud had her now former coach both full-time, the boxing club HSK and many other things in everyday life to see to.
Fully understandable, she points out that the training was therefore on the shot to the afternoon. But having to run back and forth in rush hour day in and day out and ended up as a heldagsprojekt.
Now is Bokseinstituttet in Valby, a district of Mahfouds residence, so that she can finally work out in the daytime and it creates energy in your everyday life towards the important WORLD cup match, believe Sarah Mahfoud, which in addition to the profession as a professional boxer also started to read on to the nurse and, therefore, even have exams on the program at the beginning of the new year.
