I was thinking much the same about Steward ( did he really call Lewis a coward? I must've missed that...) he comes out with some weird stuff - talking about the Wlad/Peter fight, he says "I've always had great success with tall guys beating shorter guys" Obviously refering to Hearns/Duran ( how long ago?? ) but obviously forgeting the times old Tommy was laid flat out by shorter guys....
As for being a crack head?! No way...he wouldn't last 5 minutes with an intelligent guy like Wlad if he was. Hard not to miss if you're working with a crack head I'd say...
Easier to hide than you might think

I have heard that he let Harris do his own thing throughout "camp" basically the first time he saw Harris was a couple of days before the fight.

Stewards idea of 'TRAINING' a fighter these days seems to be to take the paycheck, praise the fighter in question as the second coming of Armstrong, Robinson, Ali etc... then turn up in camp about a week before the fight!..... he basically done this with Naz and Lewis in the end and then acted shocked and disgusted when they didn't perform well!...

Yes I suppose bulging eyes and vacant smile is pretty common in LA.

It gives a new dimension to the "WLAD WAS DRUGGED" theories if Manny told him it'd be a cool idea to get snorted out together before the Brewster fight
