    We've had some terrible losses this year mate,and as a big fan of Johnny Tapia,his death hit me very hard indeed.But for the sport as a whole,this could be the biggest for a while.
    He'll be sadly missed.Can you imagine the memories Tommy and the others from the early days of the Kronk will have?

    It's not often I get sad when people that I don't really know passes away but this one hurt quite alot acually. Steward was an insightful person to listen to on the broadcast and brought balance to the commentating.

    He was an inspirational person and will continue to inspire people for a long time, Rest in peace Emmanuel boxing lost one of it's greats today.

    The least we can do to pay tribute to a man who was so compassionate and charitable.

    Been wearing a Joe Frazier avatar since he died.

    I'll tip my hat off to another legend in Manny Steward, ofcourse.

    Still can't believe the voice of reason and one of the humblest characters in our sport has gone, a true legend in our own time. I guess we should be happy that we got to experience his presence.
