Is there a more overrated trainer? He's still living off of Tarver KTFO Roy in the rematch Why is it that his boxers constantly look clueless in big fights, to the point where the towel has to be thrown in? It's not that they lose, it's that they have the worst gameplan possible The most glaring example is probably the Gatti-Mayweather fight. Gatti had no chance, but the fact that he came into the fight trying to box was embarrassing and totally misguided. His only prayer was to bait Floyd into a brawl and hope to land a night changing left hook, yet he followed him around trying to box, and got demolished. Terrible
I wonder why Buddy isn't getting depressed from this himself? Why doesn't he just quit? In addition to not allowing certain fighters to fight, they should also not allow trainers like that to coach anymore.
Sometimes its also the fighters you pick, and maybe McGirt is to be blamed more for that than his training ability. I think the Klitschko generally have good pay days, he figures its good money and thats why he takes to train Rahman. That being said, Lets be honest, even if Rahman had Cus D'Amato, Emanuel Stewart, Freddie Roach , Maywheater Sr in his camp, he still doesn't beats Wladmir. Brewster was a shadow of himself in their rematch. And as lampley put it, Maliganini, was a by product of great Management.
Whenever I see mcgirt in the corner, I consider that fighter the loser. McGirt is hopelessly overrated as a trainer. Serious fighters should stick with the Stewarts, Roach, or Mayweathers when it comes to training for a big fight.
McGirt is on big bad losing streak. Some of which is due to bad luck and poor charges. Not all his fault in reality..
His fighters simply have no ****ing fight plans. They keep coming to the point of a towel being thrown in. At some point McGirt has to be blamed. He wants to be a mercenary trainer just riding in for a payday without wanting to take responsibility for stoppage losses.
Buddy's a HOF'er so it doesn't even matter......but uhhh.. who's his best work? what winning fighter is he training?
