Boxing has suffered a tremendous loss with the passing of Emanuel Steward. Vitali and I, along with the entire Team Klitschko, send our deepest and most heartfelt condolences to Emanuel's family and friends. long talks about boxing, the world, and life itself. Most of all I will miss our friendship. ali says: I read several weeks ago where Vlad was extremely moved and concerned about Manny's health... I knew then Dr SteelHammer knew something the rest of us didn't. What a very special and unique relationship they had. I hope Wlad can keep on performing at his best and win the recognition he deserves.. as far as P4P is concerned he's probably the #1 Classiest boxer who's ever laced on a pair. Ditto Bernie Campbell says: Whose gonna be in Wlad's corner in 2 weeks? Fritz? Radam G says: The spirit of the late GBG Manny S will still be there. But the chief live second now is Jonathan Banks [name may be misspelled]. Holla! ali says: Still doesn't seem real... mortcola says:
A man who defined the teaching of boxing, and the higher values of the sport, in our era as much as any other person. Not just respected for his expertise, but loved. A man who brought out the best in his fighters, helping them to overcome. A piece of my boxing youth is over, and I never even met the man. RIP, Manny. Honor his memory in all you do, Wlad, and all Manny's students.
