As a trainer, I'd say yes. As a fighter, no.

Not sure about this one. I know that I really enjoyed watching him. He was like a miniature Tommy Hearns as he was tall, lean, and could both box beautifully and punch lethally. I was really impressed by how he came back after KO losses to Lockridge and Pendleton to stop Rene Arrendondo for the WBA JW belt. Also, he made good defenses against Brazier and Pazienza. He did pretty well against a prime Chavez in '89. I thought he stood a good chance of beating Pineda for the vacant IBF JW belt in '91, but again, his chin let him down. I was shocked when he lasted the distance against Tszyu in '95.
