No love for Breadman??? Great list!If you could pick any trainer for yourself (or your fighter), who would it be?
If I had an aggressive, offensive minded guy, I'd put him with Joel Diaz. He's got a huge stable for good sparring and I think he trains guys up to pressure pretty well.
If I had a guy who was more natural on the back foot, I'd go with Ismael Salas or Eddy Reynoso.
I think Pete Taylor does a good job.
Do you think trainer even matters much?

some trainers you have to start with early at a young ageBut then you'd have to put up with all his in your ear whispering.
I don't rate Hunter that high anyways, I think he got extremely lucky with Andre Ward and none of his other boxers ever even came close to championship level. His two most successful boxers after Ward were Abner Mares and Amir Khan and neither have won any meaningful fights with Hunter.
The thing I dislike the most about Hunter is that as soon as his guy loses he immediately tries to discredit the other guy's win by lying about anything. When Angulo lost he immediately tried to get the fight a no contest because he thinks Lara thumbed Angulo in the eye on purpose even though Lara was wearing thumbless gloves. When Mike Dallas jr lost to Lucas Mattyhse Hunter tried to get the fight called a no contest because Lucas took PEDS right in front of Hunter during the wrapping of hands.
They teach skills and are best at building you from the ground up
Trainers like roach are great with already established fighters
Angulo Amir and Mares weren’t ever going to box like slique brothas. They were already setComment
