Many Steward was a first rate broadcaster. Classy man. I'll miss him terribly.

I'll miss his voice and commentary on HBO too.

Enjoyed his unique insight of the sweet science. Will miss his partnering with Jim Lampley during the pre-fight commentating at HBO Boxing. He and Lampley along with Larry made the big fights worth watching.

Boxing lost a true beacon of the sport

Emanuel was accomplished and well liked. The most incredible thing that holds true, which is extremely rare in boxing, is that EVERYONE in the business and fans alike liked Steward. It's very rare that someone is so universally well liked as you can all think of others where acrimony and venom would come out from the tasteless. I think his reverence can be attested to his demeanor coupled with depth of knowledge. He talked to everyone the same, respectfully, and was always thoughtful and honest. You can't ask anymore than that from a guy.
