RIP George Benton, Fighter and Fight-Teacher.

We lost the man with arguably the best mind in boxing history. R.I.P. to a great fighter, great trainer, and even better man.

what was benton's record??

Floyd Mayweather jr and James Toney copied their style from Benton. I think he invented the shoulder roll and philly shell defense.

@fredwill13 he would co-train whitaker with lou duva

@13ghappz I don't know when I see this he reminds me of Floyd Mayweather

Looks EERILY like pernell whitaker. the feints, the foot work, that "right in front of you, but you still can't hit me" style. Breath-taking to the boxing purist!

Benton was a great. My trainer was trained by him. He trained Holyfield, Whittaker, Frazier, just to name few. He shaped the Philly fight scene.
