    Does anyone legitimately know anything?
    I can't find even a passing reference.

    I found this. It is an article about Ray Mancini doing physical training with Murphy Griffith, Emile's uncle. It is very likely Emile used these types of routines at points in his career. Unfortunately, there is not too much info.
