KOLARODO BAHARI, Tur. (Kasım 19, 2018) – The late Emanuel Steward, arguably the greatest boxing trainer of all-time, is a member of the Class of 2018 getting inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame.
The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 ABD Boks Elit ve Gençler Ulusal Şampiyonası ve Gençler ve Hazırlık Açık, Aralık 2-8, will be held December 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) Salt Lake City'de, Utah.
Steward was a boxer, trainer extraordinaire, and HBO commentator until his untimely death in 2012 yaşında 68. His boxing career culminated with his induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 1996.
Yaşındayken 12, Manny moved with his mother from West Virginia to Detroit, where his life soon turned to boxing. Amatör boksör gibi, he compiled a 94-3 kayıt, bir altın madalya performansı ile vurgulanan 1963 National Golden Gloves Tournament as a bantamweight, but he decided against trying out for the US Olympic Boxing Team.
Içinde 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 Dünya şampiyonu, belki, the most noteworthy were Thomas Hearns, Lennox Lewis ve Wladimir Klitschko. He also trained Julio Cesar Chavez, Miguel Cotto, Oscar de la Hoya, Naseem Hamed, Evander Holyfield, ve Mike McCallum. Manny also trained a young Detroit rapper, Eminem, how to box at Kronk Gym.
The last world champion Manny trained was Adonis “Süpermen” Stevenson, who remains the reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) World light heavyweight champion since 2013.
“Emanuel would always say, tırnakları satmak!” 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,” adı geçen Chris Cugliari, ABD Boks Mezunları Derneği İcra Direktörü. “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 John Kahverengi katma. “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.”

Kısacası, gerçi, he taught boxing, and nobody has ever done it any better.

“We have been in the promoting business for more than 13 yıl, combining both roles (fighter and promoter),” Cotto said. “Şimdi, we are able to give more attention to our fighters in terms of training.
“Promoting is more complex because there are challenges regarding every facet of an event. Bir savaşçı olarak, you concentrate solely on the fight, not all the details involved in promoting a successful event.”

Acosta’s success brings back fond memories for Cotto to when he was in a similar situation as a young world champion. “He does bring back memories for me and he proves that hard work pays off,” Cotto concluded. “Tito is living the dream every boxer has when they choose to box as a living.
