Stevenson says he's still interested in making a fight with Kovalev (one plagued by promoter and network issues) but that he was highly unimpressed by Kovalev's last fight with Najib Mohammedi.
"The thing is Kovalev was my mandatory challenger and his team never presented themselves at the purse bid. They chickened out and decided to sign with HBO instead of taking the fight with me," Stevenson exclusively told World Boxing News.
Speaking on the Kovalev-Mohammedi fight, Stevenson had this to say:
"I saw two rounds of that fight, it was a joke. This guy (Mohammedi) said his eye hurt and quit. To me, that ‘boxer' was a pizza delivery guy and he did not belong on that
PIMPING ALWAYS PREVAILS!
My bad I meant pascal. Kov beat him very easy
I don't know about that. Pascal made Kovalev work harder than any recent opponent. Of course ultimately, Kovalev prevailed, but it wasn't easy!
STFU, Aduckis Quackenson! You ran to another network rather than fight Kovalev. You could have fought Hopkins or Pascal, but somehow failed to make either fight happen. Kovalev fought & beat them both, while you were looking for an easier fight. Your mouth says one thing, but your actions say another. You're a cherry picking fraud. Superman? FOH!! More like Wonder Woman, cunt & all.
Krusher dominated BHop & Pascal, while Stevenson hasn't fought anyone remotely close to their level.
You can argue Chad Dawson was a better win ? who beat: B-hop years before Kovalev,the Hopkins that went on to defeat a younger Pascal? or what about the Dawson that beat Tarver? The same Dawson that beat Adamek who went to Challenge Klitschko for the HW crown?
Some people fail to deduct the age of Bernard or Pascals losses and wear when comparing resumes to be fair.
Yea man Dawson was the lineal champ. Hopkins is just a sideshow now. Kov beat cleverly and Dawson impressively though
Kovalev never fought Dawson. That was Stevenson.
Huh,gets a soft hitting 168 lb bika to move up to 175 for hit,yet he can't finish him,and he has the balls to criticize kovalevs 2 round destruction of a full fledged light leavy? Way to call a kettle black
