Smartest Trainer??

Gotta be Emanuel Steward. Hes taken the most limited guy taught him one shot and had him knockout the heavyweight champion. He truly made chicken salad out of chicken **** with Oliver Mcall in the Lewis fight.

 

Pacquiao is making Roach look like a genius lately, but I'm not sure he's actually the smartest guy out there. Hard to tell which trainer really deserves that acclaim.

Manny Steward deserves some mention because he always gets his fighters to box tall, behind a good, consistent jab.

 

Roach seem's like a god send with work on manny and khan though how much of PBF's boxing skills comes from his fathers & uncles help and guidance??

 

Brother Naaz...end of thread

 

What he said.

 

Freddie Roach...this was easy

 

Agreed.

 

Nazim Richardson is far better than anyone in that list

 

...why is Brother Naz not on this list?

 

I picked Roach, but like everyone else said...Nazim should be on the list.

 

Why should Nazim be in the list? Who has he developed from start? Hes responsbile for being the assitant trainer of Hopkins and setting a gameplan for Mosley, hardly enough to nominate him in the same company of a Emanuel Steward or Freddie Roach. If anyones name should be on there it should be Tommy Brooks. He certainly fits well into the same category as Roach and Steward.

 

steward and roach way ahead for me.

 

Unca Roga ... he's the only one on that list that knows what it takes first hand on how to maintain success on the championship level. All those other guys weren't pros or were journeymen .... and yes that has a lot to do with it.

Roach might have game plans but if you check the tapes when Roach is the cheif second then you will notice that when the times get hot, Roach doesn't know what the **** to do.
