It's an interesting move and it would allow us to see how good a trainer Virgil really is.

I like Amir but I subscribe to the theory he is a bit thick. He needs someone to focus on his core abilities which are his speed and athleticism. Adam Booth is a smart man but is very uncomplicated when it comes to putting together boxing plans.
I'm worried Virgil will confuse him and talk to him in metaphors.

I think Booth would have been a good match for him.

hunter has the answers to all his problems, question is if amir is smart and humble enough to absorb the message.

nobody is "just born" to do this, everyone needs a trainer to point them in the right direction. a fighter is like a ball of clay, its needs someones hands to mold it. likewise the hands cant do anything without the clay. ward is a perfect student, talented, intelligent and hard working. but without hunter to point him in the right direction when he first started out he wouldnt get anywhere. nobody is born with boxing knowledge, it has to be passed down.
