      Floyd Mayweather Sr: "Box him! Box him! Tell Floyd to just keep doing what he's doing. Box him!"

      And Kelly Pavlik's trainer, obviously.

          Virgil Hunter is the one who taught Ward how to box. Do you think Steward lucked out with Hearns?

            Hunter & Steward are not even in the same class bro..

            Virgil trains : Berto, Amir Khan, Ward
            Steward trained: Hearns, Lennox, Wlad, Stevenson, Andy Lee, Banks

            You see the different in class..
            Ward-Hunter combination works Berto-Hunter & Khan-Hunter does not..

              Athletically do you not see a difference in Hearns and Ward? lol c'mon man. Steward was the last of the few cornermen that were feared for his knowledge. Most of these other guys are smoke in mirrors.

                Most guys trained by their fathers. I look at shawn porter and I see an absolute monster, incredibly dedicated, full of heart and discipline, if he was taught proper he'd be dominating the sport.

                  Green K sent! You hit it on the nose!!

                  This is besides your point but I think Steward wouldve been a blessing for Khan. Berto doesnt have the attributes Steward would like to work with. But either way it goes to show you Steward was a GREAT if not the GREATEST cornerman in boxing history.

                    Steward is up there as one of the possible goats, mcc is a fool for comparing him to hunter.
