This is not about whether or not you like him or think he's afraid of Kovalev or his past or anything like that just a straight up are you down with what he does in the ring? I really like watching his style and have been satisfied with his fights everytime I've seen him for several fights in a row now. Anybody else a fan of his fights?
Hell yes I enjoy his fights. He is one of the best fighters and hardest punchers in the world. He is not a dirty fighter or a clincher, wrestler type fighter. He is a highly skilled KO artists so what's not to like. I do wish he would man up and fight his Russian rival.
He's exciting to watch, you can't deny him that. He moves well and has tons of power. I suggest people watch Stevenson/Don George that was a great fight and great performance by Stevenson. With that being said, my boy KOvalev still takes his soul.
Let's not turn this thread into a race war....:cop:
As to the thread question, "yes" I like to watch this guy fight. Stevenson is a power punching look-for-knockout kind of fighter. Guys like him and Kovolev are entertaining while safety first crafty guys like Dawson and Hopkins bore me
I don't like Adonis Stevenson, because of his cruelty to those teenaged girls and because of his craven ducking of Sergey Kovalev.
When I watch him fight, I just want to see him lose no matter who his opponent is.
:soapbox: I said it wasn't about liking him personally, dude! Work with me!

How many times a day do you use the N word?
Yeah he's pretty good to watch, he's rangey and explosive and he hits hard. At the same time he looks strangely limited and one-dimensional, sort of restricted in his boxing.

Hes pretty entertaining to watch, he managed to stop guys like Cloud and Bellew who were pretty defensive minded.
But ever since he ducked Kovalev i've had an incredibly strong hatred for him and Al Haymon.
Didn't think much of him before the Cloud fight but he did impress me in that fight. He clearly swerved Kovalev but he's not a bad fighter to watch.
Yeah there's maybe several guys who outbox Stevenson but not too many are going to outbox him and put the hurt on him like Stevenson did. That was for real.
Yeah when I saw him in the Cloud fight I was pretty impressed with how he handled it. He's definitely a good fighter, but dude needs to sack up and fight Kovalev.
I really don't get how champions can not want to fight each other to unify belts. Boxers don't know business, they know how to count zeros and they know who can beat them up.
