If there’s one thing the legendary trainer Emanuel Steward loved. It was length guys who worked behind a controlling jab & pressed with a powerful cross.
Could you imagine the talent in the 80s and 90s Hearns, McClellan, McCallum, McCory, Michael Moorer, James Toney would go there and spar all the time….there footage of him sparring Gerald McClellan on RU-vid
Michael Moore ALSO came out of the KRONX gym as well... What's the best South Paw & UNDEFEATED under Emmanuel Stewart. With the win over Evander Holyfield.
I have to admit, I’m not sure why it slipped my mind when I made this video. For whatever reason I associate Moorer with Teddy Atlas because I know him better as a HW than a LHW. But you’re right. He was an animal under Kronk during his LHW days. I wonder why they split when they were undefeated
@@BadgerWolf-19honorable mention could've been Charley Goldman,if not for him Rocky Marciano would've been an obscure bum lost in time today in a documentary made by rich the fight historian
I trained at the orginal Kronk on McGraw st from 1988- 2002 the best memories of my life I learned so much now I’m passing it down to my 4 boys I miss those days they will never experience what we had in that basement very sad😢 that place should have never shut down, you can Thank Kwame Kilpatrick that pos
The greatest coach of all time imo worked with so many world champions different personalities and temperaments he dealt with to get the best out of his fighters legend never die rip Emmanuel steward 🩺🥊💯🔥
I trained there for 3 years but never met steward, he had already passed. By tha point we were working out in a church basement. It's now flooded and everyone there split up, some of the best memories of my life there and all I have is a t shirt 🥲
That’s amazing that you got to stand in the gym that developed so many world champions. It’s unfortunate that everything has an expiration date. At least memories never fade 🙏
