    If we believe what Breland said, he is not teachable.

    He better buys a brum and a dustpan, so he can sweep Wilders remainings of the canvas. FURY KO1

    Not a chance

    Atlas is a tough love type trainer

    Wilder wouldnt last half a day with such a regime

    Atlas: "We are firemen!"
    Wilder: "You are fired man!"

    Windmill needs a wise, gentle yet disciplined trainer to show him the way of boxing.

    Like a boxing equivalent of the guy out of the karate kid.

    Any trainer that Wilder would actually listen to would make him a better boxer

    No, Atlas sucks. Considering how long he's been in the sport he always comes over like he's just starting out.
    Then you have Wilder, a man so insecure, yet stupid enough to delude himself to the point you feel embarrassed for him. Wilder is unreachable at this stage, he doesn't need a trainer, he needs cheerleaders.
