    Cotto. He managed to make it extremely far with a horrible stance and balance.

    The reason isnt because Roger is '****'.
    I think floyd because I was answering the question in terms of how much a boxer has achieved considering who their trainers was and even if floyd was with any other trainer he would imo still reached the same success.
    So floyd's success isnt completely down to roger when compared with other fighters and their trainers.
    So i say Floyd because he would be a great fighter under any trainer and he wins fights because of his vast boxing knowledge and ring adaptability which cannot be taught but can only be naturally present in a boxer, regardless Roger is a good trainer and knows his boxing.

    He had George Benton in his corner too who I feel is an excellent trainer. He did most of tactical talking while Duva served most as a inspirer.

    you guys are tripping. joe calzaghe's father was a great trainer. probably not the most technically sounded trainer, but great in terms of motivating his fighter. he didn't bull**** calzaghe. if calzaghe was losing a fight, he let him know it so cal could make the adjustments. calzaghe's pops was a great trainer...... and an even better match-maker. but on a serious note, who would be better for calzaghe?

    Floyd Mayweather and Roger is debatable. Roger and Floyd Sr. taught Floyd everything he knows and Floyd perfected it

    Shane Mosley.

    Not only does Jack give the same advice that I would expect my 9 year old to be able to give... but he also started to grow an enormous ego. His power boxing routine was just ******ed.
