Do you agree with Floyd Jr: "You have to be a GOOD boxer, to be a GOOD trainer"

[SuckaPunch]

You weren't **** as a fighter so how you gonna be something as a trainer? You weren't **** as a motherf*king fighter!

Do you agree with Floyd's statement that you have to have performed well inside the squared circle to be able to teach it well.

Can you name any trainer/coach/manager who weren't good in their hayday (or maybe didn't even fight/play the sport) but turned out to be good leaders of men?

Eddie Futch
Emmanuel Steward
Freddie Roach
Phil Jackson
Joe Torre

No way.

Angelo Dundee didn't box a day in his life.

Whats a "good" boxer? a top 100 ATG?

Guys like Roger, Roach and Floyd sr. were all "good" boxer, not great, but became great trainers

There are a ton of good boxers out there, but not great ones

[r3robinson]

some people know what to do and how to get there but they werent bless with the ability.
that's when you teach your knowledge to someone that can actually execute what u couldnt.

so 2 answer your question nope.

[Explosions]

Nope.

It might help you but it isn't necesarilly corelated to being a good boxer.

[Doctor_Tenma]

Nope, and Floyd couldn't have been more off.

[kbpoetree]

it helps..but nah smarts is the key...some arent very physicly tallented..and or mayb injuries or life got in way of good boxing career....so one dont have to be a gr8 boxer to coach it well...def dont hurt..but not a necessity

Great Trainers? For only training one great guy? Wait till they're gone (Pac/May) and they ain't gonna do jack shit.

Nacho is a much better trainer than them and I don't think he boxed.

They deleted the thread.. they can't handle the truth.
