Mikey Garcia
Danny Garcia

Steve Forbes
Sturm
Groves
Narvaez
Andy Lee

I can't disagree with your edit, there's really no way to know. I just listed guys that were generally smart fighters that I think each brings something to the table. For instance you crossed off Danny Garcia. Dude has great timing which comes from recognition, he's cool as a cucumber which is a plus in the corner and sticks to a gameplan like very few others. Helpful traits to pass on. I could list what I see in each but that would be incredibly long. And we don't know who has the passion, for training.

I like Garcia. I think he is the next fighter, post Money Mayweather, that can run the table through his career. He can retire undefeated and a multiple title holder. But as a trainer, I doubt he can summon the courage to train. He is NOT his father in terms of verbiage, motivation and support. jmo...

Glen Johnson

Calderon is retired but I think he will do all right

Glen Johnson, indeed. He can do it. In fact, it should be his next step. DLH I would never consider- he is fine right where he is, doing promotions and making heaps of cash in the meantime.

The more I think about it I don't like him either but for different reasons. He's a bit robotic, great trainers tend to be charismatic and frankly a bit off their nut. Garcia is a follower not a leader.
