      He is a product of a great fighter in Ward. He needs to bring another fighter to a championship level or he is more hype than great.

        He is not a bad trainer he just needs to be more selective with the fighters he takes on. In my opinion he'd work better with fighters like Garcia and Alexander, easier to mold them into what he wants to do.

          he cant be that bad of a trainer. the only other guy he has been with for some time besides ward, brandon gonzales, probably should have just beat tommy oosthsuzien. u cant judge a trainer based soley on severely flawed fighters that really cant be fixed too much.

            I don't think he is a complete fraud but I do think he is heavily overrated.

                Ward's natural talent.

                He was not Ward's first trainer also, Ward's father taught him didn't he?

                  He's been training Ward since he was 9 years old. You don't teach what he's taught Ward and be some fraud.

                  Man, the internet is a wonderful place, Hunter has apprenticed under some of the best old school trainers in Oakland.

                  He's an excellent trainer in his boxing fundamentals and also his psychological effects he has on his fighters.

                  Yes Ward is a great talent but he's been a great asset to him.

                    No different what Enzo Calzaghe done with Joe, accept Enzo was taught Joe everything.


                    Hunter has failed to deliver on his promises to Khan, Angulo and Berto, to make them better fighters and eliminate their defensive flaws.

                    They have in fact gotten worse.

                    He claims to be some great trainer, I say he is not, he is an average trainer who happen to have a top fighter in his stable.

                    His attitude is all wrong, he seems to think he is the star and he never at fault for anything.

                    The guy is a fraud.

                      Hahaha, ok if you say so. I would take some time to understand what it takes to actually train fighters before you make a ridiculous statement like that.

                      Last I checked, Angulo, Khan AND Bert were losing before they got to Hunter, yet he's responsible...
