Who is going to train Bernard???

Nazim Richardson and John David Jackson probably

 

I think hes better off without Roach I dont think Roachs style really fits Bernard Hopkins at all its a match made in hell.

 

Roger Mayweather would work well with BHop imo

 

He knows enough.

 

Yeah good point but I wonder if the egos would mesh well.

 

Roger does not have that big an ego in his relationships with his fighters

 

He's a professional trainer who will be paid to train, egos go out the window here.

 

actually a guy like Floyd Sr has a huge ego and a "my way or the highway" attitude that Roger doesn't have

 

Do you really think his ego goes far enough to interrupt his training sessions?

 

I dont guys im just wondering you never know. Bernard seems like he would be a hard guy to work with although ill admitt ive never heard any training problems which I guess is because hes a hard worker and doesnt create problems as far as the training itself goes.

 

Bernard is always open for training and advice in the gym, he wouldn't have hired Roach if he had ego issues in my opinion. Against someone like Pavlik I don't really think he needs a special trainer with new advice he doesn't know of already, what Bernard needs is conditioning at this age.

I'm pretty confident Bernard has Pavlik's style memorized, it's really not that difficult to figure out Pavlik's style, it's Bernard's activity in there that should be looked into and conditioning. If he fades as the fight goes this could be dangerous even though Pavlik is wide open for counters and almost everything Bernard will be looking to land. The big question is, can Bernard keep it up or will stamina issues kick in?

 

Thats a great question when your 44 is it ? Or 43 ? Its hard to maintain your stamina over 12 rounds.

 

yes. Definately. I've even seen him in the corner during with his fighters and he treats them like ****. The guy is a technical master but he is an ******* and BHop wouldn't take that ****.

 

I just hope he keeps well away from McGirt and his touch of death.
