The GOAT boxing trainer….. Emanuel Steward

USA Boxing Alumni Association, luokka 2018 inductee
(L-R) – The great Tommy Hearns & the late Manny Steward

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Marraskuu 19, 2018) – Myöhässä Emanuel Steward, arguably the greatest boxing trainer of all-time, is a member of the Class of 2018 osallistuminen Yhdysvaltain Boxing Alumni Association -säätiön halliin.

 

 

 

Toinen vuosittainen USA-nyrkkeilyalumniyhdistys ry: n kuuluisuuden hallin vastaanotto, pidetään yhdessä 2018 USA: n nyrkkeily eliitin ja nuorten kansalliset mestaruuskilpailut sekä Junior ja Prep Open, Joulukuu 2-8, pidetään joulukuussa 7, Radisson-hotellissa (215 S. Temple St.) kaupungissa Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

 

Steward was a boxer, trainer extraordinaire, and HBO commentator until his untimely death in 2012 iässä 68. His boxing career culminated with his induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 1996.

 

 

 

Iässä 12, Manny moved with his mother from West Virginia to Detroit, where his life soon turned to boxing. Amatöörinä nyrkkeilijä, he compiled a 94-3 ennätys, korostettu kulta-mitali suorituskyvyn 1963 National Golden Gloves Tournament as a bantamweight, but he decided against trying out for the US Olympic Boxing Team.

 

 

 

Sisään 1971, Steward became a part-time trainer at Kronk Gym, where he eventually guided many of the country’s top amateur boxers. Kronk Gym later became a property of Steward’s and he developed it into one of the most successful and famous boxing gyms in the world.

 

 

 

 

 

Steward also served as National Director of Coaching for USA Boxing in the early 2000’s.

 

 

 

Throughout his incredible career, Steward reportedly trained 41 maailmanmestarit, ehkä, the most noteworthy were Thomas Hearns, Lennox Lewis ja Wladimir Klitschko. He also trained Julio Cesar Chavez, Miguel Cotto, Oscar de la Hoya, Naseem Hamed, Evander Holyfield, ja Mike McCallum. Manny also trained a young Detroit rapper, Eminem, how to box at Kronk Gym.

 

 

 

The last world champion Manny trained was Adonis “Supermies” Stevenson, who remains the reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) World light heavyweight champion since 2013.

 

 

 

Emanuel would always say, aihiot myy!” Stevenson fondly remembered. “He was also the first to tell me, ‘You will be a superstar and a world champion. Just make sure you don’t listen to people with bad intentions because you’ve got natural talent.He believed in me even if some people did not think I would ever become a world champion.

 

 

 

Emanuel Steward impacted the lives of so many who walked through the doors of Kronk Gym,” sanoi Chris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Associationin pääjohtaja. “While he’s most recognized for his achievement at the professional level, his impact was significant in the amateurs. Manny serves as a model coach for USA Boxing today, and his impact will be felt for a long time. The USA Boxing Alumni Association overwhelmingly supports his induction and looks forward to honoring him as part of this year’s Hall of Fame class.

For years he would come to my National Silver Gloves Tournament that I sponsored and put on in Kansa City just to show his support of the youth program,” added USA Boxing president Johannes Ruskea lisä-. “Every year I would tell him to let me know if he was coming, so I could VIP him, and every year he would ignore me and just quietly show up. I would notice him in the crowd. I would ball him out and then we did the same thing the following year.

 

 

 

I also used to see him at big fights and he would always make me feel special by saying my company saved boxing in the seventies and eighties by providing safe, well-made, fair priced boxing equipment for the sport. No one else ever gave me that recognition. He was humble and not a blowhard, my kind of guy.

 

 

 

Emanuel Steward left his mark on earth, not only as a multi-faceted personality in boxing, but he’s also remembered for his magnanimous charity work in Detroit, in which he helped youths in their pursuit of education.

 

 

 

Lyhyesti, vaikka, he taught boxing, and nobody has ever done it any better.

Yhdessä Hard Hitting Promotionsin tärkeimmistä tukiotteluista’ (yhteistyössä Greg Cohen Promotionsin kanssa & Devin Haneyn promootiot) “Fight Night at The Sugarhouse” tapahtuma, WBC:n nuorten kevyen sarjan maailmanmestari ja paras amatööri, Devin “Unelma” Haney (16-0, 11 KOs), kohtaa meksikolaisen Enrique Tinocon (16-4-3, 12 KOs) in kahdeksan kierroksen esittelyssä.

Tapahtuman kärjessä on Philadelphian raskaansarjan Joey “Tank” Dawejko (17-4-4, 10 KOs) ottaa vastaan ​​Detroitin Demetrius Banksin (9-1, 4 KOs) kahdeksan kierroksen taistelussa. Liput hinnoitellaan eturivin VIP:ssä: $150, VIP: $100, Kehän vierus: $65 ja General Admission: $45 ja voi ostaa osoitteesta www.hardhittingpromotions.com.

Niin kehittynyt taidot nuorena Haney oli, Mayweatherin perheenjäsen, että hän kääntyi ammattilaiseksi Meksikossa klo 16 ja, vuotiaana 18, on voittamaton 16 taistelee. Häntä kouluttaa arvostettu entinen maailmanmestari Mike McCallum.

Haneylla on myös kunnia olla nyrkkeilyn nuorin promoottori, koska hän myös operoi Devin Haney Promotionsia.

Tämä on urasi vaikein ottelu; teitkö jotain toisin harjoituksissa??

Tein samoja asioita, joita teen aina. Tätä olen valmistautunut koko elämäni ajaksi, joten olen aina valmis.”

Kerro minulle työskentelystä valmentajana kaikkien aikojen huipulle, kuten Mike McCallumille.

Olen työskennellyt Miken kanssa noin kolme ottelua ja se sujuu hienosti. Olen oppinut häneltä paljon asioita.

Mitä mieltä olet vastustaja, Enrique Tinoco?

Näin hänen tappelevan hetki sitten. Katsoi häntä livenä. Hän näyttää karulta ja painostaa vastustajaansa. Hän tulee taistelemaan, mutta tiedän varmasti mitä tehdä hänen kanssaan. Minulla oli paljon kokemusta amatööreistä ja olen kerännyt monia mahtavia ammattilaisia. Olen valmis kaikkeen, mitä hänen on tuotava.

Miltä tuntuu, kun joku kuten Floyd Mayweather kutsuu sinua "urheilun tulevaisuudeksi".?’

Tuntuu hienolta. Tein kovasti töitä, jotta ihmiset tunnustaisivat minut urheilussa ja vertaisivat minua nyrkkeilyn parhaisiin taistelijoihin tällä hetkellä. Floyd on minulle kuin mentori. Molemmat Floydit ovat. Haluan vain jatkaa kovaa harjoittelua ja näyttää kaikille, että olen todella nyrkkeilyn tulevaisuus. En kuitenkaan tunne paineita suoriutua täydellisesti joka kerta. en usko paineisiin. Se kaikki on päässä. Aion vain mennä sinne ja esitellä taitojani.

Tänä iltana, ovet auki 6Pääministeri ja ensimmäinen ottelu on 7Pääministeri. Sugarhouse casino sijaitsee osoitteessa 1001 N Delaware Avenue Philadelphiassa.

East Harlem, New York

I am proud to officially announce my 6th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion that will take place on March 18 at Monique’s Lounge in Harlem, New York. I am expecting by far the largest turn out of any of the previous 5 reunions which were held twice at Rival Boxing in Las Vegas, once at Jimmy’s Corner in Manhattan and once each at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Casinos.
Of the over 100 boxers attending this far, among them I expect the likes of 1988 Olympic hopeamitalisti Riddick Big Daddy Bowe, NYC Golden Gloves Champ Poison” Junior Jones, 1984 Olympic champ Mark Breland, 1974 National Junior Olympic champ Marlon Starling, 1996 USA Olympic team captain Lawrence Clay-Bey ja 1988 National Golden Gloves Champion Mark “Liian terävä” Johnson.
At my past reunions, including the most recent one held at the Rival Boxing Store in Las Vegas on Marraskuu 18, we’ve had the likes of Roy Jones Jr., Alex “Bronx Bomber” Ramos, 1992 Olympian Montell Griffin, former three time world champions Mike McCallum and Iran Barkley, ja “The Fighterand Irish Micky Ward in attendance.
Among the most special of moments at my reunions, we had Mike McCallum and Alex Ramos, who met each other in the semi-finals of the 1980 NYC Golden Gloves, reconnect in Las Vegas in late 2014, we had Luis Ortiz and Lawrence Clay-Bey, who were brought together in 2015 at Foxwoods after not only not seeing each other in 38 YEARS but after not even knowing they fought against each other in 1977 until just a few days before they reunited and in NYC over the summer of 2015 meillä oli 1984 New York City Golden Gloves 156 pound champion and runner up DennisThe MagicianMilton and Jesse Lanton connect once again.
Any media who wish to attend the event in Harlem, New York on March 18 are more than welcome to be a part of the festivities.

“Iceman” John Scully’s 4th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion

This will be my 4th official amateur boxers reunion, with the first three having taken place in Las Vegas (Joulukuu 2014), New York City (Kesäkuu 2015) and Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut (Heinäkuu 2015).
Boxers who have attended previous reunions include the likes of four-time world champion Roy Jones Jr., three-time world champions MikeThe Body SnatcherMcCallum and IranThe BladeBarkley, WBO heavyweight champion Lamon Brewster, former WBC light heavyweight champion Montell “jää” Griffin, 1988 US-. Olympic coach Kenny Adams.
I’ve had this idea to bring my former amateur peers together for many years and in December of 2014 at the Rival Boxing Store in Las Vegas I finally had my first amateur boxers reunion and it was a tremendous success. Since then I’ve had two more (at Jimmy’s -Glenn- Corner on W. 44th St. in NYC and at Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut)successful gatherings that have seen everyone from local amateurs, regional Golden Gloves champions, National AAU champions, maailmanmestarit, Olympians and every other possible level of amateur boxer.
I had originally planned to have boxers from my Olympic trials class (1988)gather for a reunion but changed it to any era or level. On that end we’ve had boxers ranging from 1976 A.A.U. National champion Bret Summers from Washington State and 1976 Jamaican Olympian Mike McCallum all the way up to 2004 US-. Olympian Jason Estrada.
Basically it’s a chance for us to get together, reminisce, tell stories, see old friends, meet people we’ve never met before. Maybe the best example of what my reunions entail came at the 2015 event at Foxwoods when I had Hartford’s Luis Ortiz and Lawrence Clay-Bey meet for the very first time since they boxed each other as young kids at Marc Anthony’s in Hartford way back in 1977!
KUN: Heinäkuu 23, 2016, 12 puolenpäivän 4 pm

The wait in the dressing room before a professional boxing match -that last hour- could be enough to strip a man who never boxed before of whatever pride, desire and heart he THOUGHT he hadIceman John Scully, Huhtikuu 2002

Boxing is a tight-knit fraternity. Everybody knows everybody. But a line in the resin will forever be drawn separating those who step into the square ring and those who DON’T. Many, many people make money on a fight, but when the bell sounds, only two people answer it.Randy Smith, Helmikuu 2003, Journal Inquirer (Manchester, Conn.) Newspaper
