Just a couple off the top my head:
Chris Byrd. He is getting older but has a lot of talent and a history of success. He is also calm and very smart, thus being able to see a fight for what it is without letting his emotions delude him.
James Toney. Yeah, a lot of problems there but don’t let his demeanor throw you off, he knows a lot about the sport. Plus, not only does he know a lot about fighting, he knows a lot about fighting in different weight classes. That would be a huge plus when training boxers in different weight classes.
Geez, I can already imagine what Oscar would be saying if the fight was getting tough. "Okay, just run around the ring so you won't get hurt"(A strategy he applied against Tito) or "pretend your hurt and don't bother getting up"(A strategy Oscar applied against B-HOP).
Man, I would love Holyfield to be instructing me in-between rounds.
Ye great example, you want a trainer who is punchy and doesnt have the common sense to quit 10 years ago, fucking dweeb.
James Toney seems waaaaay too stupid to train. Chris Byrd works though. Who I thought immediately of when reading the thread title though was Sam Soliman. I'm sure people here have been watching this season of the contender, and he was practically a second trainer on his team already.
nigel benn. he is quite famous for some punching power and brawls. i would have thought he would be some angry guy, but in his itnerviews he is very calm, smart and he has some charisma. i mean i don't listen to a lot of famous people but this guy does make soem snese. he would be a good trainer because of good advice and it comes out fast becaus ehe is witty. he is also very calm.
kosta tzyu. got a feeling he would train you hard and teach you what he knows. very spiritual it seems so he would give you a calming feeling in the corner.
hopkins. seems like he knows all the tricks and would teach you everything. although i think he still has a passion to fight.
Although he just retired I think MAB would make a great trainer. He knows boxing and brawling in and out and his knowledge of the sport is vast.
good choice chris byrd as well,i think james toney would be good.
kinda like jack blackburn.
