I think Kelly would do much better with a Emanuel Steward as his trainer.... Because Emanuel is great trainer for a specific type of style of fighter. And that is the long reach Jab, jab, right hand behind it... He is excellent in teaching spacing and every little nuance that comes with that style of fighter. Things that he has learned from all the great fighters he has trained with that style.... Because Kellys trainer is kool, but its obvious he has ran his course as his Chief 2nd..
With out a doubt ..He still needs Lowe in his corner for his mental state but as far as a teacher Steward is the man for him ..
yeah for sure, Manny would be perfect for him at this point. Kelly has an obvious lack in ability to deal with quick footwork, and he needs to sort of reinvent himself, otherwise there are a lot of fighters who will exploit that.
Its kind of hard to double the Jab when your fighting guy that hand speed doubles yours and foot speed triples yours and your doubling the Jab comin forward giving a way your reach and hes comin in with four punch combinations as fast as your double jab...
During the B-Hop fight, I thought they were just replaying what happened in Pavlik's corner after the first round over and over. The cutman is the local butcher in Youngstown
I mean i heard no instruction on footwork, faints, side step..... All i heard is throw more punches..... Throw more.... Thats not goin to get it... Iv seen some of kellys trainers work with Kelly in the gym and all i ever see is come forward, pressure, always giving up his height.... And iv seen Emanuel he teaches the complete opposite... He teaches you how to work the Jab goin Backwards forward and side to side with equal effectiveness... With faints in there.. I actually seen him teach Jermaine a triple Jab with a cold Hesitation in there.... And the way he taught it i see some of the best guys use it all the time and it looks like there reacting but there really not... They just know what your reaction is gone be already.... COLD
