    Nacho berestein!!! If he builds you from young you will emulate marquez or finito lopez's style... Amazingly poetic

    Would Nacho's approach work with your disposition, B?

    this is just me but i think its best to get a trainer who can really help a young fighter develop defense. helping develop defense at a young stage will help prolong the fighters career and make him a better fighter in the long run. a good coach for that would be roger mayweather or virgil hunter jsut top of my head

    I'm not interested in ANY young fighter; I'm interested in what trainer would work best with YOU (considering your DNA gifts), 'n why?

    Someone like Hunter, when I did box ... many many years ago I was a very defensive boxer worked behind my jab and had a decent inside game when or if the gap got closed down. I feel Hunter would have brought the best out of me given the style I had.

    Nacho and Floyd Sr. Two of the very best today.

    Cus D'Amato. When I was boxing as an amateur I absolutely loved to slip inside and land combinations. My very first fight I'll never forget, I waited for my opponent to jab, I weaved in and landed a double left hook because of his low right hand.

    He wobbled into the corner and they stopped it :lol: It was legitimately like 45 seconds. My whole family was there.

    growing up watching a lot of fighters and being most attracted to the style of smart counterpunchers like marquez or lopez i have found myself trying to emulate both there combination punching but also there footwork so yes i think nacho would cater to me incredibly well. not to mention passion is everything for me.. i have noticed NO MATTER WHAT SPORT i play i always find myself falling in love with defensive positions .. football , basketball and especially boxing

    i love boxing but if you call yourself a trainer and teach me to brawl and dont include conditioning, footwork and other essentials to the sport i would not come back to your gym, working under nacho is a dream of mine a true labour of love

    I'd want a bold trainer with an ego. Probably Mayweather Sr. or Roger, as crazy as that may sound.

    Which is funny because it's the opposite of who I am, but in terms of athletics and competition that's just how I do it.

    From the sparring I've done before probably Roach. My defense isn't the best but i can punch a little so i would need an offensive trainer

    Give me Dundee. Very positive, only talks winning, knows how to relate to a fighter and has a way of making even a thick-skulled fellow like me listen and learn.

    I think the value of popping the jab and drinking some water is underrated. That said, I'd want Buddy McGirt to show me the way.
