Futch was great, one of my favorites. The guy had more world champions then most of todays promoters.

What I liked most about Eddie is He was a Gentleman.

Read a story about his reservations about Bowe's commitment to the game and him deciding whether to train him or not. He instructed Bowe to go running in the morning and that he was going away. It snowed heavily and Eddie was waiting early in the morning in the car. Bowe did get out of bed and go for a run and Eddie was convinced he had the heart.

For the today boys with Eddie.

Curious to see what Eddie could do with someone really young like Roman Gonzalez.

Or how about Eddie and BCD.

I am sure I saw a video of a press conference where Roger Mayweather said Futch wasnt a great trainer. Or am I mistaken?
The Mayweathers are the only people who know about fighting/training according to that bloke.
