Would Muhammad Ali had been a good trainer?

No unfortunately

Not at all. As great as he was, he was very egotistical as a fighter and did a lot of things "wrong". Didn't listen to his trainers on proper technique/tactics and had to be convinced more than coached. Being egocentric is essentially what made him great, but it's the worst personality trait to have as a trainer.

 

[Big Boss]

just like in other spors, usually the best athletes don't always make the best coach/trainer

No, he relied on legendary athleticism and genius level ring generalship more than skill.
