    Comments Thread For: Stevenson Targets Ward, Bute - But Dirrell Could Be Next

    On Friday night at the Bell Centre in Quebec, super middleweight Adonis Stevenson (18-1, 15 KOs) rushed forward to stop Noe Gonzalez (28-2, 20 KOs) in the second round. Stevenson, 34-years-old, is on the verge of landing a title shot opportunity. Going by the rankings, Stevenson is getting close to challenging IBF champion Lucian Bute or WBC king Andre Ward.

    Just as I predicted.

    Ward vacates the WBC title, Stevenson and Anthony, 2 highly rated by the WBC for the vacant title in July/August. Winner can fight Bute, Ward, DeGale, etc.

      That's a crazy sick fight between two ****ers.

      Not sure who wins TBH.

      Both unproven.

      Somebody's getting KO'd.

          I like. I'll take Dirrell, but it should be a fun one even if I'm wrong. Hope it happens.

            Andre beats him easy/

            Anthony probably gets him out of there, but takes a few good blows in the process.

              Isn't his contract with Showtime about to end? I'm assuming he doesn't want any fights that are TOO BIG before he's under a new deal with Showtime or HBO is part of the issue, but that's just my guess.

                He'll fight Bute, people need to relax. And if Anthony Dirrell gets a good win, an Adonis Stevenson type win, I'm sure Andre Ward would fight him. Anthony Dirrell hasn't done s**t. Even Adonis just beating the average Noe Gonzalez was better than anything Anthony Dirrell has done.

                I can see Anthony stopping Adonis though, who was shocked and upset by Darnell f**king Boone. Adonis has looked much different lately though, maybe because he's working with Steward now????

                Would like to see a Stevenson-Dirrell fight for the vacant title. The winner could fight Ward, Bute, and many others.
