I saw someone comment on Instagram how Ramirez could benefit from changing trainers. I had never thought about it, but the more I think about it the more I feel like that could be the case. I’m starting to think that RG isn’t as great as a trainer as he is made out to be, and I feel like fighters don’t really grow under him. I think someone like Joel Diaz would be a great fit for Ramirez, or of course Reynoso. Is there any other trainer out there y’all think would be a good fit for Ramirez? Or is Garcia the right trainer for him? Thoughts?
Ramirez was with Freddie Roach before Robert Garcia.
Those are two of the top trainers in the game. If he can't get better under their tutelage then maybe the trainer isn't the problem.
Completely agree. Ramirez is just pretty basic stylistically. Good fighter but there aren’t exactly many dimensions to his game. I’m not sure what a new trainer could really add.

Robert is just too basic. He teaches you to out your hands up and jab and that’s about it. He’s not and never has been a great trainer. Roach looked fuked up the last time I saw him, but when Ramirez was with him he was a better fighter Roach is actually a great. Robert just turns everyone static and basic, that’s why he doesn’t have any great fighter’s, they all fall short.
Garcia might be one of the most overrated in the game, along with Virgil Hunter.
Hunter might have done a great job with Ward from the start, but I’ve never seen him really improve anyone else. It’s because he speaks with calmness and wisdom that people think he’s some great trainer, I don’t think so.
Naw, Robert isn't overrated. Plus with Big G that camp has a lot of experienced eyes.
The only fighter I have seen improve with Robert is Maidana. He did a great job with Maidana but thats it. Ramirez should have stayed with Roach.

That’s what Ramirez is and ain’t not one making him become some calculated defensive wizard it’s not I him. Trainers work with what they have that’s all they can do. Regis trainer can’t change what he is hes a boxer puncher he’ll never be a whirlwind non stop agressor which is what would have benefited him in the Taylor fight.
Garcia was giving the right advise Ramirez just couldn’t employ it.
Yeah see what you mean. It is a two way street. I wish Ramirez would have stepped to left a little more and thrown some left hook body shots or right upper cuts. He probably would have broken Taylor down.
Garcia is the best suited trainer for pressure fighters with durability and power.
But he doesnt have a lot of range. Most of his fighters fight similarly and have the same weaknesses.
Ben Davison getting Taylor to cruise the late rounds after being on the wrong side of the judges with Fury was infinitely worse than anything Ramirez’s corner did.

Sorry, RG is trash. He's gonna ruin Virgil's career like he did for Ramirez.
If ramirez would have come in with Canelo's plan. Throwing more body shots and setting up more uppercuts he would have busted Taylor up. RG just had Ramirez running into Taylor's fist the whole fkn night. Same plan he has for all his fighters...
