Question
I'm 22 and wanna become a pro boxer. What should I look for in determining who's the best trainer to help get me there?

Answer
Look at the trainers credentials.  Who has he trained, and the level of success of those fighters.  Make sure that he or she is not only a trainer but a very good communicator that can instruct and teach at the same time.  Also it may help to get references from the other fighters.

Thanks,

Joe
