    A Wilder/Steward partnership wouldn't last very long. Wilder would be too dense and stubborn to absorb any of his instructions and Steward would quickly get frustrated.

    I think Joshua is most in the mould of what he'd be able to the most with... Of all those heavyweights

    Usyk was molded by Bashir who had real tug of wars with Steward even a protégé ,its why Wlad went with Banks himself and he only hurt himself doing it. Those saying Usyk its no...…...Steward would likes big HW's to work with ,its either Wilder or AJ and knowing Klitschko and Wilder ,Manny would have went with AJ bc Wilder wouldn't have the mind set to listen to someone who employed discipline in training he showeed that after Stewart passed ...Aj wasn't around ....Wilder DOESNT listen.

    Steward would be all over AJ if he could ,hes the best HW boxer when you do a boxer/puncher and a long jab to work around with brute strength as well. AJ is the kind of HW Steward would love to mold so ………..


    Fury would be involved with Peter and wouldn't have had the discipline for Manny to jump on that ship either with everything that transpired leading him to Ben .

    Its a no brainer. AJ its not even a question if one thinks about that and puts 5 minutes into it. .

    Deontay Wilder because of:

    * KO Power - Long Limbs
    * Kronk Linealism - Mark Breland

    Hrgovic with Emmanuel Steward would be unstoppable.

    Emanuel actually did train Fury, and always spoke highly of him both before and after they had a working relationship. So I think Fury is a strong possibility, but in all honesty if Steward were alive I think there's a possibility he'd still be training Wlad as he closed in (or perhaps surpassed) Joe Louis' title defense record. I'm sure many would disagree, and it wouldn't be a given, but I believe Wlad with Emanuel in his corner NEVER gives away so many rounds against Fury without drastically changing or being KO'd trying. Ultimately this assumes Wlad would have been better prepared for Fury, which I believe almost certainly would have been the case.

    IF Wlad retired by now with Emanuel still in his corner, I think Steward would take an interest in Hrgovic.
