Manny Steward is a disrespectful ****

What the **** were his comments about last night? When Murray was getting beat up by Rios but still throwing back, Steward says: "This often happens because British fighters aren't used to the hard kinda fights" "Murray has really impressed me tonight with his bravery. Something that most British fighters don't have." WTF?! What is that based on? As a Brit, and one of the first to criticize the quality of british boxing (coaching mainly), I am not biased in the slight, I do, MUCH prefer the American and Latino style of fighting. I hate how the coaches are in this country (too heavily on fitness, not on pure skills), but the fighters are not to blame. BUT, whatever the British fighters' shortcomings are, it is NOT heart, determination, courage or bravery! HATTON CALZAGHE FROCH BENN EUBANK BRUNO KHAN all the way back to COOPER. His comments were disrespectful and had NO basis whatsoever.I didnt hear him say it so I cant say for sure but he could be just mixing up british fighters with the stereotypical "eurobum" who goes nowhere and is perfectly happy building up garbage wins and calling themselves a champ ex Sven ottke. This is a guess though, he could very well mean British fighters lol.

fukk that uncle tom cunt,he gets nothing from me he's useless anyway roy jones and max should be covering all the fights

I completely agree with you, the only time ive been embarrassed of a British fighter recently was Haye but that is it, very disrespectful comments our fighters always bring it and they all did better than expected this weekend in my opinion...

He's just ignorant and a moron. I've always thought that. For many many years. I've always felt Steward is overrated immensely, both as an analyst and a trainer. To say British fighters are known to not have heart is just incredibley ignorant on his part. For someone who has been around Boxing for as long as he has should know better.

Mr haye is still under his skin lmao!

Bump this thread.
