    This is a bit idiotic. When comments like these are made it shows you know nothing about boxing. Uncle Roger is so knowledgeable about boxing and arguably the greatest trainer in boxing. Uncle Roger a 2 time world champion made the Mayweather name and Floyd Junior took it to the next level. Even when he was fighting Roger started training fighters. He made Floyd the most complete fighter in the world whereby there are no weaknesses in his game. There is a reason Floyd stuck with his Uncle Roger because he is the best period. Don't be fooled by how Roger sounds rather listen to the wisdom that comes out.

    I would have to think of robert garcia and nonito donaire right of hand.....i personally think that nonito is to talented and gifted for robert garcia,just look at robert's other stars Rios and Margarito who are flat footed,go straight forward and get hit with everything that comes at them

    I think Ricky Hatton, if he would of started with a TOP trainer he would of been better. Towards the end with Mayweather you can't teach a dog old tricks.

    james de gale and jim mcdonnell

    not that de gale can be classified as great but he is very promising and is wasting his time with mcdonnell who really isn't a good enough trainer for him

    also, unless lee finally realises his potential and fights the way he should against chavez jr, he'll go down on the list of fighters who weren't deserving of a great trainer, in this case steward

    Andre Bertos trainer is ****

    James DeGales is **** also

    on the other end

    Sugar shot mosley is now absolutely terrible and hes dragging Nazim Richardsons reputation along with him. Nazim always identifies weaknesses and flaws in opponents and has great observation but mosley can never execute bro Nazs plan

    That's why I know Naz is a great dude. Most other top trainers would drop an older guy like shane in a heartbeat but he stood by his fighter cos he respects him as a man and loves working with him. Nazim is clearly not a fame ***** like Roach or especially Steward who like to take on guys who are already big-name, top-level fighters, and then never stop talking about how they made them great.

    Which one is which?

    Teddy hasn't proved much as a trainer at the highest level, and I would hesitate to call Moorer a "great" fighter.

    Maidana has many great assets and hits like a monster @ 140

    He fails to set up nicely timed combo's and cut off the ring though sometimes

    and fails with some of the basics.

    His new trianerGarcia should do alot for him
