Ok lets gof or Breakfast" :happy Emanuel Steward me and a Italian freelance journalist having breakfast in the mother****ing Park Lane Hilton Hotel Manny buys breakfast and follows it up with a great Clinic what a guy. Clinic was brilliant time flew by, Jamie Moore and Sky were there, great to see Errol Christie as well

    Good to hear that.

    I've always been a bit harsh on the guy due to what I've heard about the McClellan situation.

    Must say he comes over well in 4 kings.

    Nice to hear that Rocky. He seems a class act even when speaking on radio shows. Loves the sport..as well as a pound note :lol:.

    Nice that he bought you breakfast, i thought he was supposed to be a bit of a tightwad. At least that's what Frank Maloney said.

    He covered footwork, balance, jab and keeping the other hand in the right place. He dug out alll the old footage from the Kronk Gym spars involving McCleanan, Hearns, Toney and McCallum. Will he said McClennen left him after Don King had been in his earhole about not needing to pay Manny prior to the Benn fight. That is why he wasnt in his corner. Spoke about Cotto fighting as a 4ft 10in guy when he first got him. Characterictics of certain fighters. He was just so enthusiatic and he aint no tightwad the man hasnt got enough time for everyone and just loves his boxing. The bird in charge kkept saying "we're going to have to wrap it up now" but Manny would just come back with "I'm halfway through a story". He was different class. I'm going to the next one in august/sept

    It really was amazing, sadly we weren't allowed to film much of it, which is fair enough. We did a decent sit down interview with him afterwards. Who were you Rocky? You should have said hello.

    Manny is a class act.

    listened to his interview on OTR and Jenna asked him for an opinion on Haye and the Wlad situation, alas "I have no comment, I respect David for what he does!"

    We need more like him!

    I was at the front Ed. Greeen hooded top over beige coat. I was to the left of front the way you were facing. I kept looking over you were with Jamie Moore. Honestly so weird sitting at the breakfast table while Manny Steward is talking about the Kronk gym. Did you see the sparring videos Ed?
