Either you have a very low I.Q. or you have wilfully tried to spin what I wrote.

The person who created the thread (probably similar to you mentally) had a sly dig at trainers ("those who can’t do, teach").

Let me explain to you very simply. There are many good and great trainers out there, some have boxed themselves and some haven't. An example of a great trainer that has boxed is Brendan Ingle or Floyd Mayweather Sr. (these are the same guys you mentioned so you should be familiar with them). An example of a trainer that has not boxed professionally is Shane McGuigan (son of Barry McGuigan).

Now, anyone can become a good or great trainer, providing they do all the correct and necessary things etc. Furthermore, if you as a trainer have boxed before yourself, then this will of course be advantageous for your training abilities and approach. Why, because you have been in the same (or similar) shoes your fighter is probably in and have experienced and learned things there. Now with these experiences and know-how, you can help to improve things, for example, how to approach a training camp, game plan, motivation, training methods etc. Common sense would tell anyone with sense that this is advantageous and provides the trainer with a helpful insight into the mindset of the fighter and how to help them win in the ring. It is not essential to have been a fighter prior to becoming a trainer, but it certainly helps.

You are also very incorrect about anyone being able to train the incredibly talented and naturally gifted Terrence ‘Bud’ Crawford and look like they know what they are doing. A fighter can be naturally talented and gifted, but it takes a lot more than that to achieve in full what they are truly capable of. Look at James Toney, as much as he did, it could have very much been a lot more. Saying what you have said, it’s just a lemon sucking way of dismissing a fighter and their trainer of their hard work and dedication. No matter the natural gifts or talent, it still takes a lot to do what the likes or Terrence Crawford and his fellow boxers do.

You are correct about receiving too much credit for having only 1 great fighter. If you look at a trainer like Brendan Ingle, and see the fighters he built up from their early teens or younger (he started with Naseem Hamed at 7 years old) then you see a truly great trainer who could not only mould and develop existing talent and natural gifts but also create where no-one else sees any potential.
