What does this thread have to do with Ricardo Mayorga anyway? Haha, nuts.

exactly lol ross needs to lay off the smack

but back to the topic of the thread, it's not like Steward hasn't had fighters who still had an entertaining style after having him in their corner for long periods of time, Lewis and most notably Hearns both were plenty entertaining

I wasn't particularly enamoured with Lewis, but respect what he brought to the table, certainly more exciting than what Wlad has become. Hearns could be very exciting to watch. I love watching old fights of his. Great fighter.

Good luck to Chad, hope he loses to Pascal again.

Lewis was the main reason I mentioned holding and leaning! The versions of Lewis and Tyson that fought each other would have 95% been the same result but Lewis still thought Mike that much of a threat that he would lean and hold big time and that's what Stewards fighters seem to do. Any threat at all and they spoil and if Steward instills that negative attitude in to Cotto, to move and try and jab against Mayorga, all he's doing is allowing Mayorga to work and get a rhythm. Same with Dawson,if he hasnt managed to figure out by now that all he needs to do is work more, I dont reckon Steward can do much for him at this point.

yea i guess Steward is just a Hall of Fame trainer due to his work on HBO, cause all he does is ruin fighters...

only time Tyson was a threat to Lewis was when he was munching on his leg in the pre fight tussle other than that Lewis battered him with every punch in the book

actually Cotto/Mayorga will go something like Lewis/Tyson, the better boxer (Cotto) doing everything he damn well feels like to the inferior opponent (Mayorga) and then drag the fight longer than he should have mercifully stopping his opponent

Haha! You forget Steward screaming and begging Lewis between rounds to turn it up. Steward was scared that Mike might get back in to it because he could see Lewis best shots bouncing off of Mike with no result.

LOL, you are all mocking Ross, but he is telling the truth. Steward is a boring trainer and when he gets into the fighters that you like then you automatically have to stop supporting them. Ooh Wlad "throw that jab 200 times more, my dick is so hard". That's just weird. I can't watch boxing like that, but in terms of someone like Lyle, well, how else can you explain the support of the Klit twins? Must be a total fag, but I will let the other board decide as I am a gent.

It does seem with Steward that for every gret partnership he has, there are other fighters who he just makes worse imo.

Jermain Taylor
Kermit Cintron
Andy Lee even?

Maybe all would have been better under someone else....

[ross]

Thing with Steward is, he is a good trainer. He has created some very good fighter but when he gets established fighters they are either on the comeback or on the wane. The reason these fighters go to the big name trainers is because their careers are on the line and they need a known quantity.

A fighter like Cotto or Dawson moving to Steward at this stage of their careers is all about damage limitation.

Why are people supporting a Cotto Vs Mayorga fight? It should be Cotto vs Berto!!!!

Most people know that Cotto is on his last few fights and they want him to win some of the fights before he retires. Berto would be too much of a test for him, let him fight past it Mayorga and featherfisted Foreman types.

I'm taking Pascal to stop Mayorga
