...it's a fact!
I talked to his girlfriend at the post-presser this morning and she told me that he fairly often visits the site. It's one of his favourite boxing sites.
I think that's because of the style of ESB - fans writing for fans and giving their opinion.
Though I don't know if Mr. Steward reads/posts on the messaging board.

Nice to hear - I find it understandable, even if some of the posting is utter shit, there are some real gems in here, and as you said - it's a site for boxing fans of the highest sense.

If he comes on here then of course he reads the boards. You think he comes here for the professional journalism on the front page?

You know as well as everyone else here that the frontpage writers are not getting paid for their articles...it's more like a blog and everyone can be involved - this could also be a point for him to read the site...fans writing for fans...no blullshitting trough obligations aka if pay us for a banner we will be good to you like youknowwhichsites...

You would be surprised at how many commentators, trainers, managers, and fighters read message board forums.

Is that why Stwards not like he used to be sounding full of crap sometimes.

There's no way Manny Steward squats in his mansion in front of his laptop and trawls through all of this shit about fucking Klit and Lewis. He reads the news on the front page and that is it.

I think Steward is honest and on the money for the most part. This is not to say he doesn't boast about is own guys. All trainers and managers say their fighters are better than the public thinks they are.

You got it, Mendoza. A number of guys come through here, it seems. Lyakhovich's trainer, Kenny Wheldon (sp?), was on here after Serguei lost to Briggs, saying that SL had a hurt shoulder. He offered a few little insights that made you think it was really him. He just posted on the general board, in an article on the Briggs-Lyakhovich fight.
Also, there's a guy who posts in the general forum who goes by the handle "Bert Sugar." Is it really Bert Sugar? I don't know, but his writing style is similar.
ESB is read by people all over the world. One of the reasons why I come here is to see the opinions of fans all over the world, and get the latest info on little-known or -hyped fighters in the USA. Honestly, this is my favorite boxing site and it's not close. That's one reason you see many press releases (non-'authored' articles) and ESB-exclusive interviews on the site: The various managers and fighters realize how big the site is and they want to get their message out to ESB's sizable audience.

Then he should act like it, and stop BSing so much...oh wait, he fits right in with our resident KLIT-ites...
...Uncle Manny could very well be among our ranks, but I doubt it...none of the KLIT-ites have the boxing knowledge Steward has.

I heard from a credible source that Manny saw footage of ViciousBoxer and has taken him under his tutelage at the new Kronk Gym. He wanted to get to work with him before Wild Card did and got the millions that will inevitably come from his career.

More power to him! He's a great trainer and a large part of Wladimir's recent success. Andy Lee looks quite promising as well................
