Is to much stock or not enough put in trainers?

[Da Hammer]

i say most trainers deserve a lot of credit for their fighters win. not only for the instructions they get in the course of a fight but also for all the behind the scenes they do with their boxers getting them into better shape for the fight and trying to intergrate more into their arsenal of moves. like someone said that pacquiao it seems he trains himself. in the ring when fighting it may seem so at times but off the ring for example its obvious Roach has worked a lot with Pacquiao in improving his right hand and using it more to set up list his powerful left hand. which has made pacquiao from a 1 dimensional fighter into a much more complete dangerous fighter. his right hand still aint great but he has improved him a lot just by getting it to be average. also has helped him improve his timing it seems like in every fight, doesnt get out of position as much as he used to when throwing his left. so yea i think trainers at times dont get as much credit as they deserve...

what do you think fellas? do they deserve much ot the credit, not so much, or what? thoughts? discuss, vote!!!!!

i think Trainers are overrated ,but a good cornerman is invaluable IMO

u want a guy in the corner who is able to score the fight correctly and to be able to give advice on how to adjust when u are struggling to adapt to a style ,a good cornerman can help u dig down that bit further aswell

A good cornerman is invaluable -DEFINITELY- but a good trainer is as well... I mean, you CERTAINLY need a guy in the gym with you who knows boxing, who knows when you are overtraining, who can se you on a day to day basis and know when you are making mistakes, when you are getting away from what makes you the fighter that you are. Don't diminish the role of the good trainer who is there on a day to day basis

Depends on the fighter. Some guys are naturally gifted and the trainer is just their for advice. Some trainers nurse a wounded or unranked fighter to dominance.

i agree ICEMAN JOHN SCULLY

i found its easy to think of things u want to do in sparring or in a fight but its harder to remember those things u wanted to carry out when u are actually in the fight, its great when u instinctively pull a move that u have been working on in training though without thinking its just there and u are like damn

ive always been told when things are starting to go wrong its good idea to revert back to basics ,like getting back on the jab to try and establish a rythm etc
