I think leaving SBG was the move but to go to the gym he is at now isn't much better for him. He needs a ATT, AKA, Greg Jackson, Sanford, Elevation. Even smaller gyms like alliance, MMA labs, and Xtreme coture would fit him. He won't progress that much where he is at, Krause and his team are just ok.

Not easy getting into USA these days
He's not a top 10 Bellator fighter. All the shine he got was from Conor and John. He left SBG and looks terrible. He's chasing fame and arrogance. Greatness takes humility and hard work not tough guy talk and ego bluster.
just watched john kavanaghs interview regarding conors decline as a fighter and i can tell you, james did the right thing leaving that gym.

He needs to check his ego it’s the ruination of everything, self belief and ego are different ego can destroy a man and he’s adopted this ‘I am great’ attitude I think because he seen it work for conor, conors a different person and if james doesn’t take it down a notch and be himself 100% he will be chasing greatness until greatness slips away

What was he chasing again? Bit of a vague interview lol.
James Gallagher started very young with John Kavanagh. I don't think he has done anything else in his life other than MMA. He is not a real person as a result. I don't think he's developed much in the way of a personality or character. He tries to imitate McGregor or what he imagines a great fighter to be like but it all just seems a bit paperthin and forced. It just comes across as so obnoxious

John Kavanagh overrated AF. All those bollocks books. McGregor made him then he squandered some good talent like Gunnar. Rodney Moore is the best MMA coach in island of Ireland. Has a gym in a town with 60k people and has still produced 3 UFC fighters.
