Emanuel Steward: Legendary boxing trainer dies aged 68

Emanuel Steward, who trained legendary fighters Thomas Hearns, Lennox Lewis and Wladimir Klitschko among many others, has died at the age of 68.
He made his name as a trainer at the Kronk gym in Detroit, where Hearns first became world champion in 1980.
The American handled more world champions than any other trainer, 43 in all, and was working with current heavyweight champion Klitschko in July.
