Here’s everything we know about the larger than life character.
Who is ‘Brian BoMac’ McIntyre?
McIntyre, who fought 21 times as a pro, winning seven, has trained four-weight world champ Crawford to victories since the beginning.
McIntyre, 55, grew up on the same street as Crawford did and has known the three-weight champ for his entire life.
The pair trained at the same gym together when they were younger.
McIntyre eventually took notice of Crawford’s talents and took him under his wing.
“I guess you could say I’ve been something like a big brother, a big cousin, an uncle to Terence… when you’re in the gym all the time with the kids, you develop relationships,” McIntyre told The Athletic.

“When we were done for the day, the trainer would always say, ‘Why don’t you stay around and help with the kids?’ So I’d hold the pads, push them a little bit. I started doing a little training.”
As a trainer, McIntyre has also been in the corner for former super-featherweight champion Jamel Herring.
He also trained Amir Khan for his fight with Kell Brook last year and Chris Eubank Jr to a stunning tenth-round stoppage against Liam Smith in a thrilling rematch.
As a fighter, McIntyre is best known for fighting Eric ‘Butterbean’ Esch, losing by decision.
