Does the Rigo win solidify Pedro as a top trainer?
Subject line
As it relates to the pros, does the Rigo over Donaire win prove that Pedro has what it takes to be among the sports top trainers? His amateur record speaks for itself, but that doesn't necessarily translate to the pro game, just like sparkling amateurs don't transition all the time to the pros.
Its amazingly hard for a guy with so few pro fights, irregardless of skills to beat a seasoned and still good/still prime fighter, just ask Dulorme.
Pedro revitalized Cotto with the Margarito rematch and the Mayweather fight. He had a brain fart by changing up Cotto's training dramatically prior to the Trout fight, making him look more shop worn than he's ever looked. He took criticism from fellow trainers and fans and lost that luster.
Did he redeem himself by having Rigo prepped and ready to go and win such a huge fight?

between rigo/donaire and cotto getting to floyd-diaz stock is really high right now. I'd love to see Broner go work with him.

I took notice in him when Cotto hired him, seems like a hell of a trainer with some innovative and unconventional training methods/philosophies. I'm sure he's also got tons of experience training amateur champions and Olympians correct? He seems legit as fuck, hope he doesn't thin himself out too much by working with too many fighters like most trainers tend to do when they get some buzz.

While guys such as the one in my avi were producing world class champs in the pros Pedro was doing it with the ams.
Unfortunately unlike Rigo which has convinced the nay sayers of his amateurs achievments translating to the pro world, Pedro will need more than the Margo and Donaire wins to convince doubters.
