Manny Steward Interview

[hitmanhatton]

Sorry if you folks have already seen this. Manny on the Wlad-13 fight.

Has any trainer ever been as accessible as Manny?

Emanuel Steward: "David Haye was acting like a punk. He was falling down every time he got close to Wladimir, dropping to his knees and looking to the referee!�

Ok, I'll bite. (That, and I'm too lazy to look back through past posts). WHY exactly do you call Haye "13"?

Sorry. Number of punches he THREW (didn't land but THREW) in his fight with Valuev. I'd never seen a number that low from a guy who lost a fight let alone a guy pursuing some kind of title. I was, and remain aghast!

per round of course

doesn't help his case in the slightest , hell the guy he called boring throws more than that in a round

it was a tongue in cheek comment, chill out

[Fenster]

Bernard Hopkins, the universally recognised great fighter, threw just 326 total punches against Taylor first time around. That's an average of 27 punches per round. He landed just 96. That's about 3 punches per round.

Many believe he was robbed.

To hang a fighter on punchstats is ridiculous. Especially when that fighter believes ONE shot will end the fight.

[erics44]

also to name the fighter after the amount of punches he throws in a round is gay

its like naming a footballer after the amount of times he kicks a ball in a match, that would be just as gay

or sucking a willy, that would gay also

im not sure which of the three is the gayest tho, probly the first

I'm going to call 'Nard '27' from now on. That won't get old & really irritating quick.

In other words the LOWEST number you could find is MORE THAN TWICE what 13 threw!

And BHOP LOST!

Bwahahahaha

Hilarious.

Whatever Haye's punch output, he won the Valuev fight by a landslide. However, 13 became "24" when he fought the far superior Wlad Klitschko. Bernard Hopkins, a 100% bonafide GREAT fighter, threw only 3 more punches per round in his effort to defend his long-standing undisputed middleweight crown. THREE punches per round more than Haye. THREE!!!

Haye's loss was without question. Hopkins lost close.

Can you confidently state your figures are 100% correct? Have you actually counted these blows?

Yes, I counted them myself (stopping and starting to get them all) ona bet after alleging 13 had thrown 20 punches per round, far and away the lowest I'd ever heard of. A Brit 13 fan said I was completely wrong so I did the count myself.

Again the lowest you could find was TWICE as much as 13's! And 13 now has the TWO lowest outputs you've been able to find? Only a maroon doesn't find that staggering.

That kind of output displays an attitude that says "I'll survive and leave this up to the judges." There is no other way to see it. Again the next lowest by another fighter you could find was TWICE as many. TWICE!

I'm a "maroon?" I guess you're calling me a moron. Fair enough.

Haye WON the fight with his 13 (according to you) punches per round. What's the problem? You only have an argument if the fight was close. 95% of people saw Haye win EASY.

I'm showing you low output is NOTHING new in boxing. Great fighters sometimes don't throw much. Make of it what you will.

LOL, the Fight WAS close. Kieran Mulvaney had it a draw, a JUDGE had it a draw, Graham Houston called the decision "debatable," Jim Watt had Valuev winning, Bob Sheridan had it a draw. Sounds like a close fight to me!

There is "low output" and there is LOW OUTPUT!

The best you've come up with is TWICE (not 5% more or 25% more but TWICE) as many blows being thrown.

TWICE!

I'm gonna go look up "boring" Wlad kiltschko's lowest output (mighta been against 13) in the last 5-6 years. I'll post it below.
