    Ironalex and I actually see eye to eye about something?

      Futch. He just has a more impressive record than Duva. And has been in the business longer, if that counts for something. Duva never trained anyone like Frazier.

        Duva stood by and got all the credit while George Benton, Tommy Brooks and/or Ronnie Shields did all the work. Futch was the greatest of all time

          Duva was always getting into fights and crap after the match...what a nut.

          Norman Stone would have KOed him, easily.

          Futch and Arcel always seemed like the best trainers of all time to me, although admittedly I dont know too much about their training methods.

            Duva usually hired assistant trainers like George Benton to do the majority of the work.
            Eddie Futch was a pupil of the Legendary Ray Arcel
