He truly was the best of boxing. R. I. P Emmanuel Steward if anyone knows how i can find the interview where he talks about Gerald Mcclellans training camp chaos after the split. i have seen a clip from it,, but really want to see the rest.

What a great man. Had the privilege of meeting him and spending the day with him when Lennox Lewis fought Hasim Rahman in South Africa

Cameron was an amazing manager.

Manny was just in the right spot at the right time. All the kids he trained were from the same block and were gifted athletes. I don’t think his philosophy of boxing at 26 was to reason.

God i love the history of boxing

Wish there was a book about him like the one Tyson did for Cus

The greatest mind in the history of the sport, Steward understood everything.

Legend must have made a difference in so many lives 😊

Greatest boxing coach of all time

Jim Lampley is probably the best boxing commentator ever

This is how boxing “saves lives”. You end up having structure…no time for the streets.

So interesting that he never planned on being a trainer, it just happened and he ended up being on of the greatest trainers ever.

Legend

What a 'Christ Like' person! Manny has always been my fav Trainer, but I learned so much about a true hero I didn't even know. Wow what an inspiration!

Does anyone else just come back to this once or twice a year?

Great interview. The more I hear from Emanuel, the more things I hear from other people about Emanuel, the man is a Prince. What a huge influence he must have been on so many people. RIP manny.

5:32 - I'm white soo....

I love Mr. Stewart’s accent when I speak

He loved amateur boxing. That's where his love was. Sums him up perfectly. Not for money or profit, but for the kids and wellbeing of his students. A true teacher. Great to see Sugar Hill keeping the Kronk alive and well

Thanx for this. Great man

Lennox, Thomas, Vitali, Evander, etc were lucky to have this gem of a human being as a trainer and coach. God bless Emanuel Steward and may he rest in peace.

This Man Lived, I hope I will too!

I give props to every kid that does boxing and fight there I was one of them in amature and honestly I cried when I lost my first fight I was 8 but u learn alot in life

Great interview!

Legendary trainer RIP god to see his nephew keeping his legacy.

Wow 👏. A legend and great man. RIP Emanuel steward

This interview was so insightful.

R.I.P!

One of if not the greatest boxing mind ever

The Man the Myth the Legend!! One of the greatest trainers of all time!!!

Emmanuel was a Boxing Savant #StrapSeason #Boxing

Beyond Manny producing so many professional champs his love for amateur boxing was always a testimonial to his love for the sport.

GOAT. RIP Coach

He was one of those guys that you wished you could listen to forever...be around for forever...r.i.p Manny👊

He was very charismatic and a great storytelldr

Melanie Ley has been an outstanding member of USa Boxing since the 1980s. I met her while my wife's and my time at Oxnard, California. In 1990 some folks at Oxnard formed a non-profit organization call La Colonia Youth Boxing Assoc.Inc. our mission was to be a booster and help save the City of Oxnard's Boxing gym, :La Colonia Boxing Club. At our once a month hosted Ringside Challenges usually held at the Elks Lodge we became friends with Richard & Melanie Ley along with other VOLUNTEER officials of USA/ABF, the national governing body of Olympic-style boxing in the USA. I can tell you that Melanie & Rick for decades have been dedicated to the fair treatment of decisions in and out of the "ring". Our group was successful in raising $325,000 thru receiving grants from both Federal and State grants(co-author City of Oxnard)...paving the way for providing the outstanding boxer/athletes of Oxnard a home A safe haven from the unsupervised "streets", the gym produced many champions and even Olympians in 1996(Fernando VargasUSA & Carlos Martinez-MX), also professional world champs, including Roberto Garcia, and Fernando Vargas. Melanie Ley is a respected and loved personality by coaches, officials, the boxers and their families.

First comment in 2021 ❤️

Who would give this a thumbs down?

Teddys way of explaining things can be so obtuse it's hard to know what he thinks specifically. "The Devil is in the details." is one of the truest statements ever invented because the Devil IS waiting on the details. The very specific, pragmatic things that if you miss them, if you forget, the devil's gonna punish you. :P How/When/Why for the Boxer is crucial when it comes to methods of attack/defense. They can be broken down and thought about and analyzed in the gym where is safe but in the fray you have to be able to act/react almost without thinking. All the mental pictures have been created in the fighters mind through training and sparring right?, such that during an actual match instinctual moves CAN be made "effortlessly", so to speak. I have to think maybe that's what he's talking about. That's great for motivation but it doesn't say,"When your opponent drops that hand, step to the inside and release that right hand up the middle, then your left hook, finish with an uppercut and return to the outside as fast as you can." I just mean THAT is specific. It is INsecific to talk about sports psychology if it's just,"You can do it!". Yeah That's all good and extremely important but the trainer can see what the Boxer cannot. Tactics and Strategy can't be understood by talking motivation though. They're like two threads in paralell or nested inside each other and support each other yes, but APPLICATION of techniques must be undetstood in How/When/Why terms. Knowwing that it can be really dangerous to throw a mid distance uppercut vs a short, compact is part of The Details. THAT is where the Devil hides for me. I like to break things down into easily understood instructions. "Move your lead foot here when your opponent tries to do X, and then reply with Y and Z." The Boxers hands might get lazy. You don't need a therapy session to tell them to at least bring them up as they close the distance, then do This and That. And all that has to be practiced day in and day out till they can do it in they're sleep. Over and Over and Over till it's so ingrained it will stay with them to the grave. So when the horizon's tilting badly and you can only see out of one eye, you'd BETTER be able to act/react like you're breathing: without thinking about. I think he's be interesting to talk with, and disappointed so many interviewers can't tease the specifics out of him and its so frequent it doesn't really bolster him as a trainer because when he's talking about fear and stress and etc etc, he's NOT talking about picking System A instead of System B because the Boxers build is more suited to doing x y and z successfully. <-- Details. Specifics. If they could get him to go there, understanding what, exactly, he's doing as a trainer because all that motivational stuff is great but I want to know WHAT to do, not how I should FEEL about doing it. Fuck feelings except to say be merciless with yourself so you can be merciless with your opponent. They should be punished for being arrogant enough to get in a ring with me. Feelings ain't got shit to do with it. Do I have a tactical advantage? When do they try to fake me out? I'll answer that move with my A combo. How lazy are their feet? Can I tie them up and toss them off balance with them? Oh, they always slip right when I do X. Cool, time to set them up by doing this that and the other. I'm just saying that I kind of wish they knew how to get past the brand and personality and stories, to get to the trainer side of him to see the specifics. The one and only thing as a trainer I kind of wish Teddy didn't do, is run his fighters down after they move on. I get that because of his public persona they want the dramatic stuff for the listeners, but in a way that has hurt him as a pro trainer.

6:00-7:15 heavy

What a great bloke!

RIP a legend. We love you

An absolute legend - Arguably the greatest Boxing trainer of all. Emanuel Stewart RIP.

He was such a great guy The world needs more men like him . R.I.P

Perfect trainer... He is nt aggressive bbut calmly assertive rip Mr steward

Awesome 👏🏻

Always so humble and a consummate professional. Truly missed.

Amazing

7 thumbs down people must be crazy, this man deserved enormous respect R.I.P. Manny 🙏

The greatest trainer in history of course. I always thought no heavyweight in their absolute prime could beat Liston in his absolute prime 1957-1959. Then I heard Manny try to answer that question with respect to Ali...he hesitated and started...well I don’t know....he said he had never seen any heavyweight rip through the top 10 to win the title as Liston did. That’s enough for me to feel vindicated lol
