Chad Dawson teaming up with Emmanuel Steward

[ross]

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

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.
