Thread about Bellew vs Stevenson = Calzaghe.....errr ok then

Did you guys read the article? Stevenson gets a voluntary first....most likely against Cloud. Both those guys are limited as fuk but can punch. Wouldn't be entirely shocked if Cloud won that

Cloud-Stevenson should be signed ASAP - that fight will be total fireworks for as long as it lasts.

We all like to call fighters limited when they aren't the best in their division. Just because they aren't the best doesn't mean anything other than what it is - you could argue everyone is limited in some regard. Cloud struggles against boxers, but he excels against fighters his type - like Bellew/Stevenson. I expect Cloud to win a belt back at some point. Hopkins made him look bad, but that is Bernard Hopkins. Campillo put a beating on Cloud aswell, no denying it.

Cloud-Bellew is a match i'd fly out for

You are numb skull, this article has nothing to do with Calzaghe but miraculously you found way to include and discredit Joe.

How is Bellew more accomplished than Jeff Lacy?

Like Lacy was rubbish but still...

bellew fought chilemba twice and won on the cards but it was probably split or a case could be made that he lost both fights, the guy sucks, stevenson will smoke him.

First fight, yes.

Second fight, no.

Bellew is no good. He promises 'fireworks' and 'wars' then delivers a cure for insomnia. I don't really rate Stevenson either but he will blow Bellew away.

Thread about Bellew vs Stevenson = Calzaghe.....errr ok then

he's the best supermiddle of all time and one of the best light heavies of all time. why can't i reference him? why do you hate calzaghe? bellew/stevenson is a huge fight. almost as big as calzaghe/lacy or calzaghe/jones

With all due respect, it is nowhere the size of that fight.

Stevenson takes this.

Andre Ward VS Adonis Stevenson in September 2013, INEVITABLE...

Making his way in 2012, Andre Ward passed from guest commentator at HBO, to HBO senior commentator in 2013, replacing our late Emanual Steward.
Which provide him a guaranteed salary of $78,933, with extra bonuses, according the last salary bracket that HBO revealed for the new senior analyst.

It's quite enough to make any class B boxers, quit boxing.
In this new position, Andre Ward new task have some great advantage, like helping paying his bills & insurance, maintain his credit score or pay for a second mortgage. It also gives more access to an environment centered on investments, by open doors for building stronger connections with "new business partners/share holders" within this top multinational media corporation.

But the issue with Andre Ward, he's also under contract with HBO as a boxer, meaning that no matter how many friends he has made at HBO, they expect him to pull out a good fight for next September, and nothing less.
So now that you've notice how Ward can be talented with his tongue to convince the audience, you might understand how Ward can make you believe Adonis Stevenson is not ready to confront him, even if Adonis Stevenson called out his name on HBO, even if Adonis Stevenson already mentionned he'd gladly go back to 168Lbs to fight any top contenders, and mostly if both Adonis Stevenson and Andre Ward didn't found no confirmed opponent for next September.

Negociations between Adonis Stevenson promoter and Cloud promoter Don King, are not easy. King wants the co-promotion of Stevenson, in case of a victory against Cloud. For Stevenson promoter Yvon Michel, it's a clear and total NO NO...

A recent report from a futuristic point of view, made me understand the reasons behind the silent escape of Andre Ward, his ridiculous choice of opponents, his promoter issues; and the silence of him and his coach about a possible clash against Adonis Stevenson.

....... ........ ........

■ Let me share you a part of this article.:

TITLE:
Andre Ward: Can the "Son of God" control the son of Jor-EL?

Recently Yvon Michel, Stevenson's promoter, had a conversation with BoxingScene.com and more than spoke his mind.

"Everyone is aware that Ward is looking for an opponent he hasn't fought," Michel sneered. "He tried to fight [Julio Cesar] Chavez Jr., or Carl Froch, but Froch seems busy elsewhere, so he's desperate to find a quality opponent."

► He wasn't done.

"Andre Ward took 10 rounds to dismantle a guy, who by his own admission was very, very weak, and drained in the fight," Michel continued. "Adonis took out the very best Chad Dawson, who said that he had the best training camp of his life, and that he was back in his own division, and it took one punch for [Adonis] to take him out."

► Guess what? He still wasn't done.

"If he wants a tune-up fight just say so," Michel demanded. "Don't say otherwise because Adonis is available."

Then Michel went on a rant about a mandatory 2-fight package on each other's turf and at both of their respective weight classes (168 and 175lbs).

► Ward vs. Stevenson

There isn't a better fight that can be made for Ward, his fans, his detractors, or HBO.

I'll give my point of view on this issue, which is simple: Andre Ward don't want a fight against Adonis Stevenson, and for further simplify, Andre Ward is afraid of Adonis Stevenson.
And soon, HBO will ask him, quit with this unstable promoter tale, and why not Adonis Stevenson ?
Why not fight with him, WHY ?

I strongly believe Adonis Stevenson will defeat talk to talk Andre Ward in September 2013...


Adonis Stevenson is Faster ►►►
