    my question is which currently active fighter would you have as your trainer.

    personally i would want Bernard Hopkins, that guy seems to know shitloads about boxing, he probably doesnt even need a trainer himself and his ring intelligence is exceptional.

    like him or not he knows his **** about boxing, technique and what you need to do to win.

    so who would you have in your corner?

    Hopkins, Floyd and JMM were the first three to come to mind. They're all technically excellent and don't seem to have any bad habits inside the ring. Don't think any of them ever put on much weight in between fights either, so they could teach you about dedication too.

    Hard to pick one cause being a great fighter doesnt mean you can be a great trainer with that being said i would probably pick Hopkins cause when it comes to boxing the guy as seen and done it all.

    B-Hop would make a great trainer I think. He was really good on the Shaq Vs. show.

    I agree, he obviously takes his craft seriously and has an intellectual approach it it. Plus I think he has the skills you can teach, not the skills that require a tremendous amount of athleticism (like Pac or Floyd)
