My personal view on this issue is; Manny Steward is an honest man, and tells thing how it tis. He is not just a trainer of boxing, he is a fan himself. I don't see the problem in Steward giving an educated, honest, analysis of the fight. He knows the game inside - out, better than anyone. Wouldn't he be bluffing to say Haye isn't dangerous?.

From what I've learned, Steward and Wladimir have a fairly close relationship, seemingly getting along with one fine. Steward said in his interview he classed Wladimir in the tier of Lennox, he finds them genuinely nice guys whom are on the same wave length as one another with exceptional abilities.

I do not believe for a minute Steward said he would train Haye to beat Vitali. Steward has to much respect for Klitschko to do such a thing.

I really wouldn't believe anything Haye has said to the pre fight hype. He's getting desperate IMO.

He's said on multiple occasions that Lennox is the best HW he's ever had.

This is probably the simple, honest truth.

Manny's predictions do suck though and are usually followed up by, 'The fight went exactly the way I thought it would....', no Manny it didn't but your gonna say it anyways

Good trainer and nice guy, so I can't be too harsh
