    Joe's a master in corner psychology .

    Eddie Reynoso is bad. Lord, I wouldn't let him wrap hands.

    Floyd Sr is pretty bad. Horrible in the corner .
    And shows up late often in the camp.

    How about Capitillo ( sp ? ) ? Mr Brick Cement .

    Donaire Sr is pretty bad.
    I find him not genuine, his approach / connection with the fighter seems forced but that's just my personal appreciation.

    Agree with you 100%, he is terrible. He just inherited the job pretty much.

    He is... I know he taught floyd but the reality is he taught a special fighter who basically developed the teachings with his own brain like most special fighters do.

    Capetillo looks ratchet as hell, shady lol. Definitely a good candidate for this list.

    Donaire Sr Idk much about but he looks like a walmart greeter turned trainer

            Every fighter who switched to Hunter has took the worse beating of their careers under Hunter, none has improved under hunter.

            and If im not mistaken Hunter has not made another champion since Ward.
            Can't say someone was a natural talent when he started working with him from a young age before he even laid a glove. It's more impressive taking a teen to eltie status than to take a guy who already had a successful career.

                F.uck that

                You don’t take a fighter no matter how gifted from a kid to retirement and guide them to a career that includes being undefeated since he was 12 a gold medal, multi division champ and #1 P4P fighter without being damn good

                Virgil didn’t just guide Ward in the ring he guided him outside as well which is part of the reason he turned out to be the fighter he was

                Taking a kid and leading them to greatness is probably the hardest thing to do in the sport way more challenging then taking a established fighter

                Virgil has to be considered one of the best around

                  Hunter has a very weird pedo type vibe when he whispers and talks in riddles.

                  He is overrated but has a reputation as a zen master coach of the sweet science among certain sections of the boxing community.

                  He taught Ward his darkest secrets, the head butt and testicular smash to name a few.

                    I've seen worse trainers of course.
                    Tony Ayala Sr was one. Just horrible. Used to drive the meat wagon. If you needed an opponent, you call Tony Sr to pad your boxer's record.

                    Richie Giacetti ( hell, I'm not looking the right spelling ) trained Tyson after the Tokyo debacle. Sure, he came from Catskill like Rooney and Atlas, but he was horrible.

                    Chris Algieri's former trainer was a comedian.

                    Jeff Fenech seems horrible too.

                      I think sometimes while giving instructions in the corner, he confuses himself
