I would think BoxRec would have the info.

That's the first place I looked. And unless I'm missing something it's not listed there.

Go to the Encyclopedia section of BoxRec and type in the name of trainer and it should give a list of fighters trained.

lol?
Why is Nazeem not there (trainer of Hopkins and Mosley) but you got Teddy Atlas?

If I was to put Nazeem there, I'd also have to put Bouie Fisher there. Didn't Fisher train B-Hop for most of his brilliant career? I love nazeem and Fisher. Which one is better? Are they both better than Teddy?

ray arcel, at one point or another he trained:

Ezzard Charles, Jim Braddock, Barney Ross, Bob Olin, Tony Zale, Billy Soose, Ceferino Garcia, Lou Brouillard, Teddy Yarosz, Freddie Steele, Jackie Kid Berg, Alfonso Frazier, Abe Goldstein, Frankie Genaro, Sixto Escobar, Charley Phil Rosenberg, Roberto Duran and Larry Holmes.

no trainer's resume tops that.

ray was good but not the best. Eddy futch and angelo dundee were the two best in the sport. look at the world champs they trained.

Thanks Poet.

It would be nice boxrec this site was as cross-referenced as imdb.com, but I suppose I shouldn't look at a gift-horse in the mouth. :-)
