what are each coaches good at?

You're confusing Brooks with Benton, mate. Brooks and Shields worked with him at the same time, late on in his career.

 

Wasn't Brookes the guy with all the high tech training? Like the stairlift thing?

I'm pretty sure he was the conditioning trainer for Whittaker, Taylor and Holyfield then later became a trainer for them.

 

Brooks has been around for a long time, he trained/cornered for Holyfield for a longer period as they had a good relationship, but that's besides the point. He didn't join the Whitaker corner till late, when Georgie Benton stepped aside and Duva needed a replacement to work his corner.

 

dundee had a lot of good fighters like willie pastrano,basillo.his book is a very good one.

 

'My view from the corner: A life in boxing'. I think. it's a good read. He did it with Bert Sugar.

 

Cornerman would be a good book for this thread.

Its a story of some of the best trainers.

Also there was a Ray Arcel biography released not that long ago, that would be super interesting.
