    Buddy McGirt??

    what is this guys deal in high profile fights? Why is he so respected as a great trainer but his fighters hardly get great results? I mean I know he cant control whether his fighter performs or not but I just dont think he shows up for the fights. Yesterday, he tells Jaidon that he was up in the fight when it was clear he wasnt, and I remember him telling Tarver to just jab in the late rounds when Hop had already pulled away. He frustrates me as a lead cornor guy, anyone know why he is considered one of the best?

    he had success a few years ago with people like tarver but his fighters have done **** recently. although he is working with vernon forrest who did very well in his last fight.

        He really only achieved sucess with Antonio Tarver. Other than that nobody really likes or respects thr guy that I know of. I think he's a ****ing dolt actually, Freddie Roach, Emmanuel Steward, Rudy Perez, and Nacho Beristein are all much better trainers.

          He says the right things, his fighters don't do what he says. He can't throw the jab and move for them.

              Rudy Perez is truly underrated....**** it... he taught Vazquez how to jab on his way inside!!!!!and that alone made him a ****ing complete beast!!!!

              freddy roach is overrated IMO..DLH, B-Hop and Pacquaio looked like ******ed kids doing **** theyre not used to doing in their last fights...vazquez spent years with roach and the ****er never taugh him how to jab on his way inside.....

                He was telling Tarver how to not get TKO'd. So technically, that's actually pretty good advice.

                  certain trainers don't mix with certain fighters, MCGIRT needs to train a quick offense 1st fighter, instead of a counterpuncher.
