    Paul Williams should hire Floyd Sr. to help him on his defense since he already has the offense(over 100 per round). Floyd Sr emphazies defense alot

    Paul needs a good balance of offense & defense, moving your head isn't gonna do it by itself.

      You would subject Mikkel to further limitations? I thought you liked him.

          Chad Dawson and Cory Spinks both should be with Floyd Sr. Both brilliant pure boxers that doesn't use all of their gifts.

            wladimir looks awful with emmanuel steward.

            i know he has stamina problems due to his size and he has to conserve himself but i used to like him more before he hooked up with emmanuel.

            the guy has great boxing skills for someone of his size and he has excellent power , he need to use it more. no reason to fight the way he did against sultan and he just looked so scared sometimes during the peter fight. his chin is not as bad as people think. it's not good either but it's okay.

              I think Antonio Margarito could be much more technical with the right trainer...

              he puts too much emphisis on punching 1200+ times a fight and just looking for the ko punches with those 1200+ punches...add in more emphisis on pure boxing technique and he's be much better than he is.

              I agree Kessler is another who could benefit from a new trainer.

              I think ricky hatton and paulie malignaggi could both do better in terms of trainers.

              ricky's team focus similar to what margarito's team focus' on and thats brawling...add in some technique and pure boxing and it would do wonders.

              paulie would do better with at least 3 other trainers over mcgirt. mcgirt is a decent trainer but paulie has more to offer than pure boxing...he is afraid to let his hands go (due to prior injuries to those hands) but i think he can take his pure boxing approach further with someone other than mcgirt.

                I truly believe the guy that would benefit most from getting a good new trainer is Katsidis. I harp on about it quite a lot but I have just never seen someone so desperately in need of a good trainer that would tell him just a few small things during a fight that would win them for him.

                A trainer is not only there to better the fighter in training but they are there to give a fighter advice that the fighter themselves may not be seeing or realising during a fight. Katsidis' trainer is the worst trainer I've ever seen during a fight. Toward the end of the Casa fight I did not hear the trainer once mention that he should stop headhunting and start going back to the body attack which would have easily won him the fight.

                Katsidis is inexperienced and in the biggest fight of his career and coming back from two knockdowns to start winning the fight. He starts losing his winning game plan. What would be the first thing any decent trainer would say when they see his fighter moving away from the winning game plan and starting to lose the momentum? It's pretty ****ing obvious isn't it? Instead, all I heard was "You're doing good Mik, keep it up mate, keep it up!"

                I was actually screaming my head off around the eighth, ninth, and tenth rounds, going berserk at the trainer because I've never seen such an obvious winning tactic in a fight that was completely and utterly ignored by not only the fighter, which is slightly understandable in his biggest fight, but by the trainer who is there to do just what he didn't and it lost him the fight!!!

                He could rule the lightweight division for the next while with a good trainer and I really do believe that. He's fast, has great stamina and power with a huge heart, but, he is in need of some better defense and good advice during a fight. In his two last fights the trainer has made a damn ass of himself and with the right trainer Kats could go a long way!
