Emanuel Steward Quotes
That's the way Peter fights. He gets in close and he hits you in the back of the head and the shoulders. That's his style. You're relaxed when you're in close because you figure you can't get hurt. And that's when he hits you with those punches, when you're vulnerable.

It's a whole new world for him... He had always been the star, not his brother. The pubic has totally forgotten him because of those two losses. It's like that's the only two fights he had.

[This dereliction of technique is not easy to explain. Steward suggests that it is actually the result of the aging process, a natural regression. At 24?] I never saw him being successful past 26... His style was strictly youth and instinct, based on driving through people. It never allowed for a long career. All youth and aggression, fighting with your head up front. The second you slow down, for whatever reason, you lose it. Because your face, which is 10 inches closer, isn't getting out of the way like when you were young and fast. You just can't get away with it anymore.
