    Remembering Things That Went Un-Noticed, RIP Emanuel Steward

    I remeber in the Barrera vs Hamed fight in the post interviews Larry Merchant asked him "I remeber you told me you was just gonna attack attack" and Barrera said we had to train our movement because hamed is trained by steward so that changed the fight.

    RESPECT!, IMO this is what makes great fighters, Barrera adjusted his plan/his trainers adjusted the plan cause of who was training Hamed.

    yall dont beleive me check it out yourself, @ 1:40:42



    my question is, I seen this fight several times start to end and I never noticed this before till I watched it again recently, please post things you think went unnoticed. (please dont troll save that for the other threads).

    Hopkins-DLH. Hopkins goes back to his stool and excitedly asks his corner, "This is the round?" twice. Then Richardson crooning "body shot" before the love tap puts Oscar down. Maybe I'm a fistic conspiracy theorist but that forever left a sour taste in my mouth.

      He said "good round"

      Then he said "that's my round" and steward even said he said that

      Looooool.

          I heard:

          "Good round right? Good round right?.....That's my round right? That's my round."

            Not quite. He said "this" not "that." And then Manny Steward confirms it by saying, Hopkins is asking his corner if this is his round" thinking he's referring to the prior one.

            Jas, stop trying so hard.

              Hopkins was worried he was gonna lose a decision

              The cards had hopkins clearly ahead anyway

                  Trainer shouting ''body'', ''go to the body'', and ''body shot'' the whole round, I think it's normal for trainers to say that. Hopkins caught him some good body shots before the one that finally put Oscar down. It looked like he went down from accumulation of body shots.

                    Hopkins looked annoyed, looked like he wanted some acknowledgement that he had a good 8th round. He kept repeating if that was his round, in a kinda annoyed way, while his trainer was ignoring his question. And now that I see that left hook again, if you look at it in live action and not slow mo, it was a pretty tough left hook.
