R.I.P. Emanuel Steward

We hate these kind of posts...for...it means somebody died.  Someone won't wake up tomorrow and read anything.  They are dead.  

Emanuel Steward was a boxing trainer.  Remember Thomas Hearns?   Evander Holyfield?  He was the trainer in their respective corners.

Our prayers and thoughts are with his family and close friends.

From TMZ.com:
