    Why doesn't Brendan Ingle get a mention??? He built the following world champions from the ground up:

    Naseem Hamed
    Jonny Nelson
    Junior Witter
    Herol Bomber Graham

    Also worked with Robin Reid and Ryan Rhodes

    Ingle is good. Oscar Suarez deserves a dishonorable mention.

    I always liked Manuel Gabrielyan [Valuevs trainer] couse he was ALWAYS aggressive to big Nick, and that motivates you a lot. Hes also a great trainer.

    i really like calzaghe. yes he has a son that is one of the best boxers of his era and has a unique way of fighting but you look at the other fighters in the gym and he has taken them to belts and title shots and these are people who could be considered average at best.

    yes he has lost a few fights this year but not every fighter is like JC and be 45-0 gavin rees did not deserve a belt but he got in the ring and won it. enza did not listen and tried fighting the way he wanted to and not what he was told. Enzo cal may speak alot of crap but i tink he really knows how to train a fighter to win. how long did he go in his gym without having a fighter loose. one thing with a enzo calzaghe fighter is if they do not get KO'd they will put everything into a fight and will work to the last bell

    We might have to add Ann Wolfe to that list soon..
    Kirkland was smokin' Sat. Night. (Maybe her methods are the future)

    Kirkland is definitly where he is because of her

    If you don't mind being tortured to be prepared for whatever comes on fight night then that's the trainer for you

    She reminds me of Roy Jones Sr and how he would make RJJ fight bigger fighters and sometimes with one arm tied behind his back

    The Ingles. When a fighter gets that unorthadox style right its an incredible thing to see, like Herol Graham or Naseem Hamed. Very hard to master, but incredibly dangerous once mastered. I dont think any featherweight in history could cope with a prime, Ingle-trained Naseem Hamed.

    My top 5 are

    1. Floyd Mayweather Sr.
    2. Emmanuel Stewart
    3. Freddie Roach
    4. Jeff Mayweather
    5. Roger Mayweather

    Okay that list isn't accurate and IMO. But what seprerates those trainers from the rest is that they usually have their fighters prerpared and know how to get the potential out of a fighter. Those 5 can work with many type of styles (not everyone though) and most importantly have their fighters prepared. Of course their is many other good trainers out there, but my list is strictly based on reputation. And their not for everyone, but usually the best fighters go to them.

    Funny you say Eddie Mustafa Muhammad, but Chad Dawson has regressed since he's been with him.
