Just by looking at what Cus D’Amato did for Mike Tyson, I can tell that he was an extraordinary human being loving and caring man. Somehow I am sure that most of us have seen the old videos of Cus working in his gym, imparting boxing wisdom to Mike Tyson. When looking at Cus D’Amato’s career, we see a complete list of what a great boxing trainer should be. Even if the fighter becomes a champion of the world. A trainer who doesn’t make their fighter a priority, is not at all a good trainer.
A trainer who sees their fighter as property or a pet, is not a good trainer. A trainer who can give their fighter energy and drive, is a great trainer.Ī trainer who is in it for the quick buck is not a good trainer. A trainer who can lift the fighter’s spirits in the corner during a fight, is a great trainer. Hard work, proper passing of knowledge, dedication, consistency, respect, understanding, attention to detail and authenticity are crucial to a working boxer/trainer relationship.Ī trainer who can throw in the towel when fighter is in trouble is a great trainer. Trainers don’t give up on their boxers, and never let them feel unappreciated and incomplete. A great trainer must have a mental and emotional connection with the fighter, feeling what his fighter feels, and being able to see what the fighter is seeing. They don’t allow their fighter to slack off, otherwise ending their relationship. They don’t let their fighter get hurt when hopeless is the only feeling left in their heart. A truly great trainer needs to mold a fighter, educate them, carry them to greatness while showing consistency, professionalism and dedication all throughout their (trainer’s) career.Ī great trainer is patient, and careful. If a trainer has a number of great skilled fighters who show up on their doorstep ready to fight already groomed by someone else, this I don’t count. First and foremost, it’s what they have done with their stable of fighters. There are a few different attributes that make up a legendary trainer. But before getting to the list, lets me try and define what I think a best trainer means to me. This will be solely my own opinion from what I have heard, read and seen. Today I want to share with you my list of the top ten best boxing trainers in boxing history. The reason for this is because it’s not the list that is bad, or better said different, it’s how the person defines what he is writing about. To me, there are no wrongs and rights when I read such personal ratings. People read and instantly criticize someone for their list and the order that the list displays. There is probably a fresh article on the top boxers, boxing coaches, boxing referees or boxing promoters, every single day. I on the other hand welcome everyone’s word, due to the fact that more people equal a better and more precise average. Some see this as a bad thing it may create more confusion as those with limited interest and knowledge add to the pool of names, numbers and picks.
