+ Answer: (Bika)
Adonis Stevenson is fighting the best opposition available before taking care of business against kovalev. Stevenson's opposition always seems weak for some fans, because Stevenson is just the best in his category.
Here's the WBC rankings:
WBC WBA IBF WBO *********
Adonis Stevenson Sergey Kovalev
Jurgen Brahmer Sergey Kovalev Sergey Kovalev 1. Sergey Kovalev
1. Eleider Alvarez
2. Isaac Chilemba
3. Umberto Savigne
4. Andrezj Fonfara
5. Gabriel Campillo
6. Tommy Oosthuizen
7. Sean Monaghan
8. Artur Beterbiev
9. Ryno Liebenberg
10. Edwin Rodriguez
11. Erik Skoglund
12. Tommy Karpency
13. Dmitry Sukhotsky
14. Yunieski Gonzalez
15. Maxim Vlasov
And here's some independent and hence more valid rankings:
1. Sergey Kovalev
3. Bernard Hopkins
4. Jean Pascal
5. Jurgen Brähmer
6. Andrzej Fonfara
7. Eleider Alvarez
8. Lucian Bute
9. Artur Beterbiev
10. Ryno Liebenberg
11. Nadjib Mohammedi
12. Marcus Oliveira
13. Isaac Chilemba
14. Vasily Lepikhin
15. Thomas Williams, Jr.
16. Erik Skogland
And here's independent rankings from 168:
1. Andre Ward
2. Carl Froch
3. George Groves
4. Arthur Abraham
5. Mikkel Kessler
6. Anthony Dirrell
7. Robert Stieglitz
8. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
9. James DeGale
10. Andre Dirrell
11. Gilberto Ramirez
12. Thomas Oosthuizen
13. Renan St. Juste
14. Edwin Rodriguez
15. Derek Edwards
16. Sakio Bika
So here Bika is no. 16.
Now please justify how the 16th ranked boxer from a division below is somehow qualified for a shot at Stevenson.
:lol1::lol1:
:dunce:
Dmitry Sukhotsky was listed 5th by the WBC ranking, before Stevenson kick him far to the 13th position.
Was Suckho'ski ranked by Boxingscene? Alphabet rankings does not represent any form of real strenght among the contenders.
Shit fight.
This is Stevenson's 5th title defence and he has yet to defend against a top 5 LHW.
Viva Haymon...

Yeah, well when you turn down fights with Kovalev, Pascal, and Hopkins, the pickings get thin. So whose fault is that genius?
Bika could get an upset here.
I don't see how Bika could get an upset -- he's 71" in reach, while Stevenson is 77"...
Plus: Bika looked old in his last fight.
i want to be mad about this, i want to see stevenson make a worthwhile title defense instead of this nonsense. but i would be lying if i didnt admit i want to see bika get knocked out more. i cant be mad at this, its wrong but i love it.
Wait until Stevenson demolish Kovalev, and win the Undesputed Champion title for 2015. Funny fanatic...

Oh, Aduckis, shouldn't you be busy training for the tough challenge ahead of you instead of defending yourself on the Internet?
I'm not a Stevenson fan, but most fans have a jaded opinion. He's defended the lineal LHW title 4 times. 1st defense vs. Cloud (#6 LHW), 2nd defense vs. Bellew (#7 LHW), 3rd defense vs. Fonfara (#5 LHW), and 4th defense vs. Sukhotsky (Not Ranked). 3 of his first 4 defenses were vs. top-7 ranked LHWs.
Bika is top-10 at SMW (currently #8). Kovalev already has a fight scheduled and the WBC has mandated Stevenson-Kovalev after both complete their next fights.
What is the problem?
Cloud was coming off 2 losses, Bellew and Fonfara were stalling fights under the guise of tuneups for Kovalev, and Sukhotsky, well, sucks.
His "reign" as champion has sucked and he could have fought better than Bika.
Wow, what a mark. :pat:
I love that account. :lol1:
Literally does nothing but say positive things about every fighter, fight, promoter, manager, everything. It's pretty enjoyable.
Probably right. But at least it is a step up for Beterbiev, as opposed to a step down for Adonis who is fighting a faded super middleweight.

lmaoooooooooooooo
The only drama here is whether Stevenson wins by KO or decision. Another disappointing matchup for Adonis. The Beterbiev-Campillo match will have to save the show.
