Trainer Barry McGuigan has revealed that he hopes Andrew Flintoff does not want to fight again after he won his debut professional fight on Friday night.

Flintoff fought back from a second-round knockdown to defeat American Richard Dawson on points, but his 51-year-old coach does not believe that the former cricketer could reproduce the commitment he did for Friday's fight.

McGuigan told Sky Sports News: "I just hope he doesn't want to do it anymore because it was such a tough, difficult job to get him into that type of shape. He worked exceptionally hard but it was a real trial.

"But could we reproduce this, let's say for example if he wanted to go to America? I don't think we could."

It had been reported over the weekend that Flintoff could stage his next fight in Las Vegas.
