Steward was a great trainer.
Tommy had thin, undeveloped legs. And he both lived and died by that sword.
Had he filled out and bulked up we wouldn't have seen the finishes he suffered at the hands of Leonard, Hearns and Barkley. But then we wouldn't have seen the destruction of Cuevas and Duran, either.
I'd pick the version of Hearns who beat Hill to batter Leonard and Hagler. But that version of Tommy isn't the one fans recall when discussing his greatness.
