Sweet, been looking forward to this..

 

Great job Rummy...Fantastic project and very interesting reading! Thanks.

 

That was awesome.

I'll comment on what Emmanuel had to say later.

No problem Rummy, quality work!
If you get the chance here are more questions;
I'd like to know what Emanuel thought about the career paths of Tony Ayala and Mike McCallum and the potential if both would have had the opportunity to fight the Fab Four of Leonard, Hagler, Hearns, and Duran...and maybe even each other?

What sparring sessions at the Kronk really stood out in Steward's mind?

And last one(s)...Steward has a reputation of being a 'hired gun'. When a world class fighter comes to him, what goes on in the assessment process to make him better? It seems what he specializes in is improving overall footwork and how it relates to defensive strategy ie Holyfield (in the second Bowe fight) Wlad, and Cotto...with those style changes in mind, would he have changed Hearns' style if he had it to do over again? Or was Hearns very headstrong about changing or fighting only a certain way, because he was confident in his power?
Thanks.

 

Lazy *******.

 

Aye mate, but i've got quite a lot to say & typing takes effort! :tired
