    He's nothing special at all really.

    He's decent though.

      He's an immortal to me. He's a legendary figure and I really wish him the best. I hope everyone else out there who loves boxing does the same thing. Take it from me, Emanuel needs your best wishes right now..this isn't the time to be mean or hateful.

          he makes his fighters more defensive, thus more dull
          but he does tend to get results
          coming to think of him more as a commentator than a trainer
          wish he woulda stayed handling Vivian Harris
          he fell off badly, mighta been better had he not dropped Steward
          give Manny massive props for revving Wlad's career
          he went from a dismissed "hypejob" to a juggernaut with Manny

              You the best Manny, You actually made your world champs, made your fighters better. You didnt inherit your gym from an Actor and didnt ride 1 fighter to glory. You stay true to your roots, you work with a small amount of them and make them all better. You dont have 40 fighters that you ruin because you dont spend any time with them.

              Manny! One of Legends in Boxing!

                You would never have guessed that this guy had 7 KOs in 155 wins before turning pro.

                Emmanuel did a spectacular job refining Hearns, Lewis, Wlad and I am missing a few. But these are his flagships and rightfully so.

                  Eh? Something happened to Steward or something? I enjoy his commentary as well. He let's you see some of the stuff thru the eyes of a trainer. You learn a thing or two listening to him commentate. Like when Martinez was having problems with Macklin he said Martinez needs to start doing this and that. Then in the later rounds Martinez started doing it and started having more and more success.

                    Let's just say things are not the best -- you'll hear more about it soon.
