I'm a huge fan of Freddie Roach and Nacho Beristain.
Honorable mentions goes to.... Buddy McGirt and John David Jackson(If you're a lefty like I am, he's a terrific coach)
But, If I had to pick out of all the current trainers. I would pick Freddie Roach. Because he has shown that he can work w/ all types of styles.
Alot of coaches have difficulty w/ different types of styles, it is actually harder to train someone who has a certain style down. That's why I don't get about all the talk about giving more props to the trainer who groomed someone from the beginning, when they had a chance to mold that fighter.
It's more difficult to get a fighter who has won championships to do something when that fighter has been doing different for a huge portion of their pro careers and have been successful at it. So yeah, much props to Roach... A EDDIE FUTCH graduate
