    I would pick someone who would let me do things the way I wanna do them and train the way I want to and not give me grief about not working hard enough or doing the right things.

    Gil Clancy took a kid from holding his hands right to being the best fighter of his generation… how many guys can say that? - I’m also roughly the same size as Griffith so…

    I’d want to be trained by Cus just to see what sort of eccentricities would unfold… the stories about the man are always Intriguing Cus knows boxing at that he is very enlightened if only slightly mistaken like the Ingles but otherwise he seemed like a weirdo I might enjoy hanging out with.

    At one time George Benton was Eddie Fuch's apprentice. That would be the team for me.
