Emanuel Steward has passed. R.I.P Legend

Andy Lee ‏@AndyLeeBoxing

To all concerned, Emanuel's sister Diane just informed me that she is with Emanuel and thou he is seriously ill he is still alive & fighting

 

"happydrinks" was reported for repeated accusations of racism. Although, it may be difficult to combat someone who can easily be using another 50 accounts and have accounts sat waiting in case it gets removed.

Unfortunately today "happydrinks" plucked the final straw, trolling using alternate accounts is one thing, but constantly accusing somebody of racism is a very serious matter. If it was anywhere near correct, I'd walk away from this forum today.

But as we can see, these accusations are absurd. So unfortunately for some of my obsessed paranoid haters, I shall stay.

Yesterday "happydrinks" also made accusations in another thread, where there was zero racism to be found. So it appears it exists to cause trouble. I will not stand for this sort of behavior any longer, aimed at me, or anybody else for that matter here.

Anybody who is racist, will be reported. Those that accuse others will be heard if they have a case to accuse. Those that do it to cause trouble and the accusations are wrong, will be reported.

I will not stand to be called a racist, or condone pictures like that. Anybody who disagrees with me, or what I have done today, also condones this behavior on the forum and is an advocate of racism.

Just like Floyd Mayweather cleaning up the sport, its also about time we start taking action on, "cleaning up the board!" A.K.A (CUTB)

Its about time racism gets the red card!

Its about time we all put on our "Kick it out!" t-shirts in protest!

I thank you for your time today.

**** off you dullard and show some ****ing respect. There's a time and a place for your pathetic ramblings, this isn't one of them.

****.

 

Everyone wants to be the first to report a mans death.

Sick world we live in

 

I have been on this forum a little time now, and have made a fair few posts in that time, I have always tried to take part in the discussions in a mature and respecful way without resorting to the insults and name calling that others use (some of which I admit to finding VERY funny).

But although it pains me to lower myself to your level, I just have to say that you really are a complete and utter TWAT.

You sir (and I use that title VERY loosely) are the reason why people do not take part in forums, you a perfect example of all that is bad with the band of keyboard warriors that plague forums and spoil the experience for decent and reasonable people.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE JUST GO AWAY!!!!!

 

I just ain't gonna get called a racist, when I clearly am not. If you lot are all for that, and condone it, then you condone this behavior and false racism allegations on this forum.

It is clear to me just why people on here are dubious of others on here, they have a right to worry and ask questions of people on here, because I don't think I've quite known another place quite like it.

There are some great laughs and debates on ESB, but there are also many people who are not who they appear to be, these are more than likely the ones on here at the moment having a go at me and my post earlier. Unfortunately, the genuine ones cant tell between seriousness and banter, the latter part of my post earlier, was clearly for laughs.

This forum is the perfect example of an out of control cesspit. I am all for freedom of speech, but there comes a time where moderation is needed, and it seems like there isn't any and that people have a free reign to say what they want, as bad as they want and as much as they want on a boxing forum.

For the short time I've been here, I've been called a troll and a user who has been here before. I've tried to get on with people, but its seems as if there is some exclusive club thats been here a while that think they own the place.

I've seen sickening posts about Hillsbourough unpunished
I've seen false racism allegations unpunished
I've seen constant racism to asians unpunished
and finally I've seen the deluded blind :smh of fighters.

But just like Audley Harrison, I will keep fighting for a better forum. YES WE CAN.

(No, paranoid people, I'm not Primadonna Kool, I am craney91.)

 

According to the scene's twitter his sister just confirmed he passed away 30 mins ago.

RIP Manny.

Go and create a thread in the ****ing lounge then. As I've said before this isn't the time or the place for your pathetic ramblings, now kindly **** off.

A legend of the sport is near death, no one wants to read your pointless essays now do one.

You go on with all this garbage about racism etc, and yet it's you that needs to learn some etiquette. Seriously what the **** does this bollocks have to do with Manny and his fight?

You're either a properly sick ******* or simply a moron with nothing better to do.

 

r.i.p :-(

 

Craney91 This isn't the thread for talking bollocks, take it elsewhere.

 

A real shame. He will be missed by many, by his family and also his fighters, past and present.

I always valued his opinion and expertise, he was a needle in a haystack, very hard to find in today's era.

It was his birthday not long ago, and I'll always remember him after that one Klitchsko fight when they sang happy birthday. He seemed chuffed and well.

Such a shame, 68 is no age!

RIP Emanuel Steward!
