Is Robert Garcia an overrated/bad trainer? I always see him...

Robert is a trash trainer with a little bit of research its not hard to see that

In ESNEWS videos, I always see Robert Garica sitting down eating chips instead of training his boxers. His son and ex-gang member assistants do more hands-on training than Robert himself.

It seems like he only cared about Marcos Maidana. With Maidana, Garcia trained with vigor and energy. But that's it.

He pimped out Brandon Rios like a cheap hooker, milked him for everything he could get. When Rios was preparing for a big fight, Robert hyped him up like a car salesman selling a busted beamer telling you it drives like a Cadillac. He would say things like Bam Bam was training like the old days when he was fighting at the lightweight division. Then Rios would lose badly and Garcia's bull**** would be exposed.

Ever since Rios left Garcia and joined new trainer Ricky Funez, he has shown an improved attitude and better training habits. Maybe because his trainer is actually training him instead of sitting down and eating junk food?

And are the fighters in his stable noticing his laziness and carefree attitude too? Many boxers have left Garcia in search of a competent trainer.

Does anyone think Robert Garcia is lazy, bad, and overrated?

I agree with you 110%. I even saw some videos of ellie that during the training camp they have carne Asada bbq no wonder his fighters can make weight. And on top of that he is always on vacation. The reason Cuellar left him was because robert was barely ever there. It was always an assistant with him

Absolutely NOT! I think trainers get blamed too much for fighters inability to do certain things. If they train all camp to cut the ring off and use Head Movement and come fight night the fighter doesn't do anything you practiced in training camp, how is that the Trainer Fault?

You have to understand that he has a huge stable and will not dedicate all of his time on one fighter. That's just how it is in that camp. Alot of champs have been produced from that camp which means that Robert and family are obviously doing something that works. He can sit and eat all he wants just as long as champs keep coming out of that program. No. He is not overrated.
