Manny Steward Quotes about Cintron

The Williams fight will tell us how good Cintron really is.

 

You really need to compare apples to apples. You are watching him train before, not fight. He looks much better fighting now than he did before. If you dont believe me, get yourself some older fight tapes of his. He is a much more complete fighter now. Marshall did what he needed to do with kerm against the guys they were facing, but now, as kerm steps up in competition, he needs manny steward. Relying too much on his right hand is what got him in trouble with margarito. looking good in training is easy, which is why i find it funny that people are so impressed by floyd on the speedbag. i mean, if he was entering a speedbag competition i would be impressed, but he is fighting a guy that punches back, therefor im not impressed. ive been following cintron's career for years, and believe me when i say he looks much better and much calmer now.

 

Kermits offense if much more fluid. He doesnt telegraph his punches like he did in the Reid and Ortiz fights.

 

He use to paw with his jab and just leave it out there, a very dangerous thing to do. You say that I seem big on steward, butI am actually bigger on cintron than i am on steward, cuz i have known cintron since we were both kids. The reason he hasnt faced top 10 competition since bringing in manny is two fold: 1. Everyone thought he was done after marg and he's had to fight his way back into the picture, and 2. Manny has rebuilt him as a fighter and you dont want to put him in there against top tier competion while you are still rebuilding a guy. And even if kermit hasnt gotten tons better skillwise, which i believe he has, certainly the confidence that he exudes by having manny in his corner is an immeasurable benefit.

Also, manny does love fighters with big right hands, and he encourages them to throw them, but only when it's there. He teaches guys to jab jab jab until the right hand opens up, and if it doesnt, just stay patient with the jab until the right hand is there. It's not just Bombs away.

Estrada and Suarez are better than Elio Ortiz, regardless of any rankings. Cintron did look shaky at times during the estrada fight, but he was learning a new style and it was a big fight for him, career wise.

 

:good I have no idea what this other guy talking about.

 

I think he's a much better fighter now.

 

Ehhh conditioner101... aren't you one of his old team?

Something's fishy.

 

The problem with Steward is that he takes away everything but the jab and straight right. Wlad had a beautiful left hook. Cintron also had a good left hook. It's gone now. Jab jab jab jab jab jab straight right. Jab jab jab jab jab jab jab jab jab straight right. Jab jab jab jab straight right. Jab jab jab jab jab jab jab jab straight right.

Yawn.

 

uhm, werent you part of his old team? what are you doing dude...? d u just want people to trash him? if thats what this is about, its a bit childish...

 

I think he's full of ****.

 

i believe him, only cuz he gave us his myspace and i know who joe pastore is, and i know that kerm did live with him, etc. that being said, i dont think it's fair to drag kerm through the mud without him here to defend himself.
