    what a class act you are? not to diminish steweard's accomplishment and comparing both men but you do realize if basillo walked into a room even manny steward would give him the utmost respect because manny is a class act and understand the history of boxing and those that came before him and paved the way for him. just like pacquaio and mayweather would have the utmost respect for steward because that's the kind of fraternity boxing is.
