I'm going Mickey here.

This looks somewhat familiar, UMPIRE. 😛 

But yeah, I figure Mickey might have dealt with closer to anti-social types of people, and in Rocky himself. Remember, Rocky was a collector/enforcer type for a loan shark before Mickey started training him.

That’s actually a more compelling case for Rocky then Mickey though. As a former shady individual himself, wouldn’t Rocky be better able to identify and earn the trust of the prison inmates then Mickey? Also no offense to Mickey but he’s never achieved the same level of fame and cultural icon status that Rocky achieved in universe so between the two men, I would think the inmates would better gravitate toward and show more respect for a former nobody crook who overcame the odds and became a legend, then some random old geezer they don’t know and don’t identify with.

Odds are though, that over Mickey's decades of training, Rocky wouldn't be his only hard-luck case; Rocky is just his most successful trainee. In the world of boxing, and at every level of boxing, there have actually been a fair amount of athletes with checkered pasts. Mickey has very likely seen and trained more than his share of unruly fighters in his gym over the years.
