From fighter to trainer..

[Round 1]

James Leija is currently training some fighters in San Antonio.

Roy Jones will be one for sure. Trinidad could be too and Hopkins.

Jack, remember our bet, ok?

Yeah I got 5 million with you and 10 million with Borikua.

I think James Toney and Bernard Hopkins, especially Bernard Hopkins, could make good trainers, if not...definately good assistants. They know all the little tricks.

Being a good fighter is one thing, being a good trainer is another. All good fighters will posses certain skills or specialtys that most people just dont posses. The thing that makes a great trainer is not only possesing the knowledge of the game as the good fighters do, but being able to express and teach the intracacies is what sets them apart. Alot of guys know the skills but are unable to articulate the process or reasoning..........Rockin'

Very true Rockin1, take for example Arturo "Cuyo" Hernandez, a Mexican trainer that in the 60's 70's and 80's made over a dozen World Champs, as a fighter, Mr. Hernandez only had one pro fight.....and he lost it.

[the giant one]

Ruiz going to be an awesome trainer when he really retires. He'll make someone else a champ someday.

And he can teach them to clinch and hug each other for consolement when they turn out to be crappy pros

What the Pretender meant to say was that Ruiz will make an awesome Salsa dance trainer/instructor.
