    So who the hell's in Canelo's corner?

    Who's Canelo's trainer? Does he have a Strenght/Conditioning coach like any top fighter should?

    It seems Canelo's corner is filled with useless, random nobodies. Can't believe ginger hasn't hired a world class corner yet, starting with a world class trainer like Berinstain or Roach. along with a world class S/C coach (something Canelo needs BADLY)

    wtf ginger, it's not like you cant afford them

    I don't know who Canelo's stength and conditioning coach is (if he has one) but his stamina didn't look too bad against Lara. Definitely better than before.

      He needs Nacho and a proper S&C coach. Eddie and Chepo can pick up the spot buckets.


      Abel Sanchez wouldn't be a bad choice either.

        S&C "coaches" aren't necessary at all. if anything, a proper dietist/nutritionist is more important.

          They seemed like a bunch of yes men in the Mayweather-Canelo all access. the dude needs to get a new corner. I remember Floyd sr saying they were trash after the angulo fight

            It seems like the trainers themselves condition him, from what I've seen. Imo he needs a whole new team tbh. His trainers have taught him everything they know already. It's time for him to get a new team so he can learn new things. The only thing Canelo needs to fix is his stamina issues(they improved A LOT in the Angulo and Lara fights) and cutting off the ring/footwork. If he can fix those two things he'll more of a force than what he is now, guaranteed.

              The only real reason I can think of of having a group of nobodies train you is to be the boss in camp. That is not exactly the way to get pushed to a higher level and I don't know that Canelo is that much of a self starter.

              I have to think he would need to get beat again to really change that line of thinking.

                The only reason I would consider picking Cotto over Canelo is how much superior his corner is.

                  Ginger deserves some praise for getting this far with such a bum corner , though

                  their plan for the Mayweather match was beyond awful

                    I think I saw in the All Access for the Lara fight is that he's "loyal" to the corner that he started with. I understand his sentiment but you have to be self aware and know that they've taken you as far as they could, and it's time to move on and continue to grow with other people.
