In the infamous 9th round of their first fight, remember when Steward yells to Micky, "that's it! GO TO THE BODY!!!". I mean, I can understand he was excited and all, though when your yelling at the fighter to do something because it's your trainer gut instinct coming out, it's sorta weird. I could understand if he was screamed out something like, Ward needs to go to the body to keep Gatti off him, though when he yelled it out loud directed towards Micky, it's like he was soley cheering for him. Anyone else notice this or am I being too critical after watching that round a hundred times?
Did Emmanuel Steward hate Gatti or love Micky Ward?

As far as I know, Steward hates Mosley and loves De La Hoya. But I did notice that as well. I always thought he liked Gatti, but he definitely wanted Ward to win that first fight for some reason. He also really wanted Toney to whoop Jirov. I can't believe he lets his bias get in the way like that, but hey, he's a trainer, so I guess it's only natural that he yells out instructions to the guys he wants to win.Comment

if i remember correctly he was saying how ward needs to go to the body to hurt gatti and when ward hit him with the body shot he said, "that what he needs, go to the body" It's one of those thing where he was acknowledgeing him and got cought up in the moment. He was excited about the fight that's all.Comment

In the countdown to Baldomir-Mayweather I think he believed Gatti would beat Baldomir(which many did).
He said something like
"I didn't expect him to beat him the way he did, he beat him down"
I don't think Emmanuel likes Floyd. I'm also unsure of how he feels about Bernard Hopkins.Comment
