i hate to start another assault in the ring thread, but i see a lot guys saying things like "thank god panama never was allowed near a ring again" or something like that...are you guys serious? panama's been training guys for years, some of your favorite fighters too, guys like gatti, tyson, etc....and as a trainer he's always been highly regarded, when i first heard of him it was as a legit trainer, no one ever mentioned the collins incident..just food for thought
Damn when you throw those many Punches and you dont hit gatti you ook pretty bad.
he made Gomez look like a clown in that sequence!!!!!!
5 punches missed+ a Ali shuffle.
But Gomez got to him.Altugh that wasn't Arturo in there.It was a guy going by his name.
Arturo Gatti 2006 beats Gomez IMO.
He was an advisor for Tyson with Lewis.
I remember watching a fight and he was in the crowd and the commentators said he had trained one of the guys, I think it was a Julio Cesar Chavez Sr fight, not certain though.
He trained Judah for the Cotto fight, they mentioned that... nothing about the other top fighters he'd worked with though.

You talk as if you're the only one to see the WORLDWIDE HBO special that showed him training other fighters and you just wanted to share this secret info to us. Think before making a thread.
Yup, like the narrator said in the doc:
"It's obvious, that Panama Lewis is doing pretty well in a sport that supposedly banned him for life"
or something like that.
He is going to be on through the ropes radio show tonight. Go to fight news.com and find the link to listen to it tonight. I cant wait to hear what bullshit is gonna come out of his mouth.
