I don't mourn old men passing, but 68 seems just a little early for somebody who was so active and in terrific shape for his age.

RIP Manny, you're leaving a huge hole behind.

Not sure why people who didn't know him personally are fighting back tears though. It's not like he was a kid cut down in his prime, there's no tragedy in this, it is just the circle of life.

Good luck in your next fight, wherever that may be!

R.I.P. Emanuel Stewart. Loved your expert and unbiased commentary on HBO and you trained some of my favorite fighters.

Rest In Peace Manny. You were not only a great trainer and commentator, but a positive ambassador of the sport. My heart goes out to your family and I thank the Lord for someone like you to have represented the sport.

Guys like Wlad, Lewis and Hearns can consider themselves some of the lucky ones.
