    Out of those? Juan Manuel Marquez. Smart guy and a great ring technician, and he's not a head case like some of those other guys. You can't go wrong with Dinamita.

    Most likely Hopkins....knew all the tricks of the trade , he was the definition of know how in boxing....not a one punch ko guy or amazing speedster...I think he'd make the best trainer.

    Bernard Hopkins without a doubt. He's a throw back with a great boxing brain. Plus I'm sure he would have no problems spotting illegal hand wraps.

    Of all those boxers I'd pick Hopkins or Marquez. Hopkins is old but knows a lot of tricks. Marquez is also a good tactitian.

    But I'd rather have Barerra as my trainer. So far I think that he a good analyst. He was good boxer as well.

    Hopkins is too much of a ****ing hot head. I doubt he's stable enough to be a serious trainer. I don't know about you guys, but I wouldn't want a trainer who'd be trying to fight me half the time.

    :rofl:rofl Forgot how volatile old B-Hops could be, but I think he'd make you respect him and get a fighter to do 100%....Other than him either Marquez or Floyd Mayweather...they were great at adapting during a fight and counterpunching:hey

    Floyd Mayweather JR - too selfish
    Bernard Hopkins - too selfish
    Manny Pacquiao - I think pac is more brawn than brains
    Miguel Cotto - same as pac
    Ricardo Mayorga - all brawn, no brains
    Oscar De La Hoya - I wouldn't want him as a trainer, don't like the guy
    Shane Mosley - decent choice
    Juan Manuel Marquez - decent choice

    Hopkins by a country mile over the rest.

    Ring intelligence nonpareil. Would get on your ass guaranteed with 100% honesty.

    A single vote for anybody else is a poor reflection on ESB's general knowledge.
