What if Eddie Futch was around today...

For me Eddie never took on the "naturals."

He took on good guys that had a graft for work and taught them solid fundamentals that allowe dthem to be special.

Look at Frazier, not the most natural fighter, but he was given a style that saw him scythe through the ranks, apprehended only by Ali and Foreman really.


He was an awesome trainer, I just wish I could witness more of his work, all I can obtain is in text which is a pity.

I could see him working well with the likes of Hopkins, Pavlik,....hey even Hatton or Pacquiao.

Eddie didnt teach Frazier to Fight, it was Durham that tought Joe. Eddie came in after Yank Died.
