The inside trade is carefully executed to avoid detection, so if by some chance the SEC is tipped, the cheater has a cover story to explain it all away. The unspoken truth is that these rules only catch the small fish. There is ample evidence that the owner of the New York Mets made his fortune on insider trading…but only those beneath him fell.

Yeah man. I will always root against the Mets along as he is the owner. PBS Frontline has a good documentary on sketchy Steve Cohen.

For some reason in boxing there is a myth you have to be an ex fighter in order to train a fighter. But it doesn’t take much to be a fighter. You pass a basic physical and go fight.

Rockin' , is Breadman a know-nothing too?

I dislike it when people like Big Mo go around spreading faulty information as if it were facts.

Ray Arcel had a few pro fights.

Cus D’Amato had a brief amateur career.

Eddie Futch fought in the Golden Gloves.

All these men certainly put on gloves before they became great trainers. They were in gyms in an environment where they could pick up things learning from other fighters and experienced trainers, they didn’t just pull boxing knowledge out of their ass and out of the blue.

Good points. Plus, like Bread said, as long as the trainer knows the sport and how to coach/teach and communicate well with the fighter, then they can be successful. Even though they are different sports, great coaches like Bill Belichick (New England Patriots) and Greg Popovich (San Antonio Spurs) come to mind. Not sure about their specific experience in their respective sports before transitioning into coaching, but they definitely were not elite as players, at least not compared to their coaching careers.

That's about all that you have do.

Ask him if that's all that you have to do to attract the attention of Fight Night and having them ask you to be one of their house fighters.................Rockin'

Belichick worked for years under Bill Parcells. Popovich was an assistant to Larry Brown.

So participating in the sport is one way to go about teaching it later on, but learning from good mentors is another way.
