Not a big cotto fan but this is a great move for him.... Exactly what he needs a trainer that can take charge (hopefully).... All we need to find out is will they mix good with each other....

I don't really trust Stewards style to work with short stocky fighters

To me he still has a bunch of good fights left, i just wished that he would have thought about making this move a yr ago when it was initially offered but he's still me fav at the moment. Really wanted to go the fight, especially cuz its at yankee stadium but i'll be in FL so i'll watch from there. GO COTTO!!!

yeah he should have, evangelista was good with him but tension messed up their communication & the 2 fights with santiago in his corner did more bad then good. im gonna goto the press confrence in the stadium & im gonna be at the fight come june. i hope he gives me something 2 cheer about. go cotto!!!

Wow...I thought Steward and Cotto didn't like each other. I just hope Steward can bring out the best in Miguel and help him to reach his full potential in the ring, physically and mentally.

From Arum's comment a few days back on this issue, I get the feeling that either Steward doesn't give a **** about Cotto, therefore he isn't the best fit, or Arum wants Foreman to win (he preffered McGirt).

Either one could be a possibility.

Not sure if yall remember Steward lobbying to work with cotto before the pacman fight. Cotto had a shot at winning, but he had no corner (very sad scene) i do not think cotto is shot, i just think he needs a confidence boost, and to go back to the basics. Manny will study the old cotto, and raise his fundamentals, and boxing iQ. if Cotto could have maintained the first 2 rounds, he had a shot. Manny will be excellent, because he studies his pupil as well as the competition, he said he had a gameplan for the pacman fight if cotto would bring him on. i honestly think this will be an explosive duo, and put acouple more years on cotto's odometer.

Steward would have been perfect for Cotto years ago. It's too late now, too much wear and tear on Miguel.

He should still have enough left to beat Foreman though.

I disagree. I thought Cotto looked the best i've ever seen him in the first 4 or 5 rds of the Pac fight. He lost to the best fighter on the planet plain and simple. I think he needs too start going to the body more like he did earlier in his career. I think if emanuel does the right things Cotto can once again be a top 5 p4p fighter and better than both Mosley and Mayweather.

Cong**** to Steward for adding the drama to this fight. Now it can be about more than just seeing if Cotto is damage goods but Rather Stewart take a big fat crap on Foreman and his camp. World's # 1 trainer is funny b/c I don't even know who Foreman's trainer is nor has he produced champions decade after decade like E.Steward
