Berto's corner was nonexistent

[Taeth]

I have never seen a corner that disengaged, delirious and nonfunctional at this level in 40 years of following the sport. I'm sure their are others if I thought about it but Berto should shit can the entire lot imo.

Agreed, although Felix Trinidad's corner (particularly his dad) during his fight with Winky Wright fight should merit an "Honorable Mention", at least. Papa Trinidad seemed clueless, and offered no alternate plans for Tito to follow.

Yup no plan B. Shame as Tito was a good boxer earlier in his career which he rarely gets credit for. The moment his bone crushing power was discovered they abandoned boxing and began the plodding. I was a huge Tito fan, hell still am. Never liked the father son teams. Jack Mosley is another father who had no business in a corner.

Tito was never a pure boxer even early. People just didn't realize how lead leg heavy he was until later on in his career. If you made Trinidad have to pick up his feet and reset himself then he literally couldn't punch.

As for Berto, I honestly never liked his trainer. This kid has a tremendous athletic potential, and yet he gets hit all the time, he has no defense. He doesn't feint or change it up at all. I thought he had that ability because he showed some signs of defense in his career before, but it's getting worse and worse, and I hope this is a wake up call, he needs to change his trainer first, and then his whole structure second.
