    Legendary Boxing trainer Manny Steward passes away. He had been hospitalised for several weeks after undergoing surgery, but it seems he never fully recuperated.

    He trained such greats as Tommy "The Hitman" Hearns, Lennox Lewis and the current Heavyweight kingpin Wladamir Klitschko.

    Gave his insightful thoughts and expert opinion on HBO PPV events and was a genuinely nice guy.

    He will be missed by all associated with the sport as well as his family and loved ones.

    R.I.P. Manny
