Evangelista Cotto says he wants to train omar henry

[Heru]

Why would he hire Evangelista Cotto when Ronnie Shields is already his trainer?

By most accounts, Evangelista and Miguel barely even talked, so we can assume that Miguel really never even worked one of Evangelista's game plans. Shieds has trained a pretty good list of fighters and I think he's proven he can draw up a decent gameplan or tweak weaknesses better than Cotto.

Evangelista brought up Miguel Pretty good. He had great, game plans and showed improvememts in every fight. Till Miguel got to be a stubbor ****ed head, who didnt listen to anybody

i read this from omars facebook good move or bad?

in the short term it will be good, but in the long term why would henry want to be a cotto clone? i mean cotto is elite, but he's fallen short of expectations.

Would be a great move actually. Can't wait to see Omar step up and see what he can do in the future - really excited about this guy.

Omar has been stepping it up he just beat 2 undefeated fighters back 2 back what more do you want him 2 do fight Sergio Martinez? he has only 9 fights lol but he gets alot of attention because people see he is the future of and he has what it takes to be a mega PPV star!

I agree with this.

Evangelista can bring Omar up well. But when Omar gets in with the elite he's going to make the same mistakes Cotto makes with that peek-a-boo defense.

All of Evangelista's fighters employ that same defense(from what I've seen) and it has soo many holes that Evangelista then can't fix.

Henry would be better of with Shields IMO.

I think henry n evangelista would work

Ronnie Shields is not currently overseeing Omar's training.

Omar is trained by Hylon Williams, Sr. and J. Johns at Savannah's Boxing Gym in Houston, TX, where he is also a full-time college student.
