What was the worst advice a corner ever gave that cost it's fighter the fight?

Another one I can think of is Margaritos corner telling him to take it to Shane Mosley.
Probably Noel Judah telling Zab to "hit him, bam bam bam, just hit him" or some utterly retarded sh#t like that.
EDIT: Sorry I wasn't paying attention; didn't know I had to pick a choice:bucktooth:
Nah they told him to box it shows you this clearly, in the Legendary Nights documentary.Quote:

Lewis vs Tyson- Ronnie Shields telling Tyson to start throwing punches at Lewis. If thats all it takes then I want to be a trainer.

What a mug! :rolleyes:
I voted Hagler although there all hard to choose between as you can debate that the advice given had some substance behind it.
I mean
* Dela Hoya was clearly ahead before he started cruising, and still took the fight IMO.
* 'Maybe' Haglers trainer thought it best that Hagler should 'have a look' at Leonard for the first few rounds.
* Meldrick Taylor needed to stay assertive for the sake of keeping his will strong instead of resorting to survival mode. (IMO he barely survived that fight ;) ).
I voted Hagler simply becuase 12 rounds was far to short and alien far Hagler to waste time.
McCall's people telling him to rematch Lewis instead of going to rehab. Epic failure.
It wasn't a mega fight but I remember in the Vitaly Klitschko/ Danny Williams fight Williams corner telling him in the 7th
"You got him now Danny, Just keep doing what your doing"
Just recently when Victor Ortiz's coach kept discouraging him.
