Is is time for Emmanuel Steward to retire?

There are a few factors surrounding Manny these days...None has to do with his ability or know how...most have been already answered in the other post...

1. Manny is at a level in his career where he does not really want to build a guy from scratch..he has had enough of that during his Kronk days and he did build guys very well...IMO his heart is justy not that into it..He is more there just for the fights and get guys ready the last few weeks

2. Spread to thin at times...and as was mentioned his fighters aree not really listening to him lately...thats because it is a special bond between trainer and fighter...the fighter trust the trainer with his life so to speak...the trainer is supposed to be your eyes outside the ring and they are supposed to do all the homework before the fight and make the adjustments during...if the fighter feels neglected the trust is lost there for when the trainer says to do something during a tough spot in a bout there are questions in the fighters head...doubts...not good for either

3. he is enjoying too much of the outside ring and gym status rather then the grunt work of in the gym...hard to get a fighter back to the grind after some celeberty status (que Paul Williams) let alone a trainer who has been at this a quarter of a century

add all the factors and you have a guy not really into it anymore but is doing it for lack of knowing what else to do....he has all the goods and know how but seems the heart is not there:-\
