“Emanuel would always say, അമ്മിഞ്ഞപ്പാൽ വിൽക്കാൻ!” 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,” പറഞ്ഞു Chris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Association Executive Director. “While he’s most recognized for his achievement at the professional level, his impact was significant in the amateurs.

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.
