"There's some areas we'll need to get stronger and we'll work on that. The key is to make improvements regardless of the events of the previous time. If we don't get the championship, then we'd want to make improvements to take it home.

"If we do improve then it gives us a chance to be successful. That's what I've said to the players from day one this year. It's not about repeating last year's success, this is about being a better version of ourselves this season on all fronts."

Many Olympians including Joe Joyce and Josh Kelly, Anthony Fowler, Joshua Buatsi, and Joshua Buatsi have made the seamless transition to the professional game. Others will no doubt be convinced that they can steal 2019's show. These are the experts our panel is most excited to see next year... Johnny Nelson Jordan Gill has been a great friend of mine. He's the sweet science behind boxing. He is not a boxer who can bang, but he is a beautiful fighter.
