    This guy is meant to be an elite trainer, yet all of his fighters are either inactive or fighting bums when they are in their prime.

    What the fck has Brandon Gonzáles since he got his ass mauled against Degale?

    Why didn't Angulo rematch lara?

    Why is ward spending more time on twitter then in the ring?

    Why is Khan fighting Algeri when by Virgils own words, he has the tools and ability to beat a fighter of Mayweather's calibre?

    Yet there are dumb and naive boxing fans around the world who think this clown is on roach's level

    Let me tell you, Virgil is a fraud just like the fighters he takes on board

    Milking their reputations for all it's worth while pulling the wool over everyone.

    Not me, I can see through his bs and I'm too cool for school attitude.

    You're a fcking fraud Hunter, ruining boxing by encouraging your boys to jump out of the fights that the boxing fans around the world want to see.

    I don't think he escapes it, not from the fans. There was another thread similar to this the other day.

    Trainers always advice their fighters to take on winnable fights

    Roach does this all the time

    But its really not up to them anyway

    So you don't think trainers advises their fighters who to fight?

    A fighter is more likely to listen to their trainer who they work with day in day out then a promotor/manager who is only looking at the business side of things.

    Virgil has already said how pleased he is with khan fighting Algeri. So there goes your argument that they have no say on who fights who.

    Because if Virgil was truly the real deal, he wouldn't want to be associated with a supposedly elite fighter, picking a bum.

    The fighter and trainer gets no credit, but virgil is just happy not having his fighters compete with opponents who can test him.

    Get off Hunter's wrinkly **** for one moment and look at the reality. The man is a grade A fraud.

    He is what he is. If it wasn't for Ward's success he wouldn't be spoken of as much

    Yeah, he should just refuse to train Khan anymore because he's fighting that bum Algieri, just like Freddy Roach did when Pacquiao decided to fight the same bum... Oh wait, Freddy didn't do that and Virgil isn't the one who gets to decide who Khan fights.

    I don't like the Algieri fight at all, but Jesus Christ. :-(

    Look at the opponents pac has faced under Roach's tutelage and compare that to the opponents khan has faced under Hunters

    Then come back and tell me if they're the same standard quality.

    Khan's obviously trying to land a big fight with Mayweather or Pacquiao and doesn't want to jeopardize that by getting starched again, so he's avoiding big punchers and the better comp at 147. I fail to see how that's Virgil's fault. He clearly doesn't have the authority to make Khan fight anyone. Khan pays him for his training services, not to manage his career and promote his fights. He pays other people for that.

    So why are all his fighters ducking and diving?

    Don't you think the trainer should be pulling them to one side and tell them that they should be fighting live bodies?

    Or is it just about the money for Hunter?

    Hunter trained Angulo and Angulo took on multiple tough fights that he lost by KO

    I find it hard to dispute this, You can also add Karim Mayfield to the list as well. I don't think Virgil is that great of a trainer either. Ward is just a special talent.

    Don't worry, as soon as Khan gets sparked(not anytime soon considering his extra careful and shameless choice of opponents), Virgin will get the "bad trainer" treatment followed by "I was drained to the core of my chin".
