Did Emmanuel Steward INTENTIONALLY screw Jermaine Taylor???

[Fox McCloud]

thats exactly what he was trying to do.. **** him over. yess.. excellent gameplan

Isn't that why fighters hire trainers? To give them bad advice and make them lose?

No, he didn't **** him over... ****** question.

Remember, Taylor needed to win this one impressively, which I'm sure had something to do with the game plan.

No screw jobs or anything involved here. Taylor decided to make a stand and go out like a man. This way he can no longer be criticized and saved face even in defeat. This was Steward and JT's plan all along and they stuck by it.

Manny Steward has a business to run.

I was surprised Steward wasn't yelling at Taylor. Taylor was in with a puncher. I thought Manny would be like "WTF you doing trading with a puncher? Use your JAB!" I did'nt hear it.. It's weird.

BUt sometimes you gotta punch with the puncher to get the best of him.

Great win for Pavlik though. Great fight. Both fighters proved a lot.

Do you actually think JT would of listened to him?

yeah thats exactly what happened......next up pavlik will fire his current trainer and hire manny.......wtf is up with all these speculations.....taylor went out like a champ should go out......no shame in that.........i picked taylor but in no way should we try to take away from kelly's big win with these ludacris ideas.......
