My new trainer is Louie Resto! Thoughts please

[Russian Crushin]

This is a man whom illegally made his fighters wraps such a dangerous weapon they killed a man, which ruined a family and tarnished the sport. He then AFAIK, didn't accept blame when proven guilty, and never apologised.

Morality to me says don't trust such a man proven to have given such disregard for life, and certainly don't reward him with any more $'s in his pocket.

YOu got the story very mixed up. Did you actually see the documentary?

[sugersean15]

resto didn't kill anyone. The kid he used the wraps on went out drinking and driving while depressed and ran into a tree or a ditch IIRC

ya but every one know restio ended the kids career and that was why he was drinking

Resto said, he didn't protest at the time even though he knew it was wrong. "At the time, I was young," he said. "I went along."

He was almost 28 years old.

The documentary about that whole story was sad to watch but quite intriguing. Pretty crazy.

Personally, id be kinda sketched out. Just based off the story though. I dont know the guy.

Best of luck to you and god bless Resto. He did something wrong, he paid for it in ways beyond the ring, and he's accepted responsibility. Try not to seek out opinions from nerds on a messageboard who don't have the life-experience to offer insightful advice.

Think of what kind of man it takes to purposely put another man's life in unnecessary grave danger. I'm all for second chances but this is just so wrong, and you want to talk about time? The man caused serious permanent damage to Billy forcing him to retire and consequently his livelihood which led to a life of alcoholism and the inevitable suicide.

And Resto is still in the sport he supposedly loves, can't you see whats so grossly wrong about this picture? So saying he did his time is an insult.

But if he's a good trainer and has done nothing but be good to you then why not.
