Trainers who gave their fighters bad advice in big fights

[Afactor4]

Ronnie Shields telling Juan Diaz to take a round off eventhough he was probably down 6-1 on the scorecards against Paulie.

when did he say that?

when did he say that?

In one of Joel Julio's fights where the kid was losing badly and that's all he had to say.

I remember him saying that in one of Tarver's fights too.

It's not as much bad as it is funny.

Cotto's trainer against Pacquiao was quite horrendous. Wasn't giving Cotto any tactical advice whatsoever, all he said was "Stop doing his gameplan, use the jab and then we let go our punches"

man , he kept telling cotto to jab when everytime cotto jabbed he would eat a straight left or a hook over it.

cotto could have done better if he lead with a right and had the hook ready to counter.

Not sure if it was the Hopkins fight but at around the 10th round or so, Buddy told Tarver to not go for the KO and score points instead when he clearly need a KO to win.

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.

I was enjoying the $15/hr appreciation thread.

I remember that as well, I think Tarver at that point might of won 1 round maximum, lol
