More Than a Coach: How Sajid Abid Shapes Fighters

In boxing, there are trainers, and then there’s Coach Saj. Sajid Abid isn’t just another trainer shouting instructions from the corner; he’s in it with you. With a pro record of 14-3 and over a decade of coaching, Sajid has built a reputation as one of the most committed and hands-on trainers in Derby.

Unlike old-school trainers who stick to the same routines for everyone, Sajid understands that boxing isn’t just about throwing punches. It’s about style, adaptation, and mindset. Training with him at UltraFlex Gym means learning the fight game properly. He doesn’t believe in repetitive, uninspired drills that some coaches run on autopilot. He brings variety, intensity, and a level of personal investment that sets him apart.

Spend a day in the gym, and it’s clear. Sajid isn’t just turning up and going through the motions. He’s there for the grind, often putting in over 12 hours a day, working with fighters of all levels. And he loves it. Nothing about his coaching feels forced or routine. His energy is real, and his fighters know that when they train with him, they’re getting 100% of his attention.

Boxing is about heart, discipline, and pushing yourself further than you thought possible. That’s what Sajid instills in everyone he trains. Whether it’s your first time lacing up gloves or you’re sharpening your craft, he makes sure your training is built for you.

For me, training with Sajid has been more than just about boxing. He’s slowly crafted me back into a version of myself that I once remembered and can now be proud of. The confidence, the drive, the hunger, it’s all coming back, and that’s down to him. He’s not just a coach; he’s a friend. He genuinely cares, and that makes all the difference.

Some coaches run sessions so predictable that fighters could coach themselves. Sajid isn’t one of them. He puts in the time, he puts in the care, and he gets results. If you’re serious about boxing, he’s the coach you want in your corner.
