Hi I'm trying to track down a video of a fight I saw many years ago on the USA network (latec89s early 90s). The fight involved a young kronk fighter I'd never seen before. The fight would have been long forgotten if not for how Emanuel Steward ripped the kid a new one every time he came back to the corner. He just had it with the kid not following his instructions and he let him know it. One round he said he'd rather be somewhere having a drink than be there and not listened to. Another round he told him to find a new profession because he wasn't cut out for boxing. Anyway I've been trying to track down a video of the fight and was wondering if anyone here remembers seeing it and point me in the right direction to find it
Looking for fight film

Nothing to do with Steward.
I watched a USA fight back in the 80s. A couple of ham and eggers. The second when yelling at his fighter and was being so boorish and negative he made me cringe. At one point he threatened the fighter he wouldn't come in the ring the next round.
After four or five rounds of this verbal abuse the fighter had enough and finally told the as*hole second 'to **** off' and don't bother coming into the ring anymore.
The second suddenly changed his tune and got respectful real fast.
I don't know which fight the OP is speaking of regarding Steward but it reminds me of Teddy Atlas being disrespectful to Moorer.
