    He also seems to completely forget to teach in-fighting.

    Enzo Calzaghe should be up there but Roach is the best.

    You're right that Nacho not only trains fighters, he creates them. He deserves alot of credit for developing some of the greatest technical fighters for years in Lopez and the Marquez's (Lopez is the best technical fighter ever IMO). That being said I don't think he's accomplished enough to be considered the greatest.

    I'd have to say Eddie Futch is the best trainer ever.
