Comments Thread For: Stevens: Golovkin Has Never Been Tested By a Puncher

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

On Saturday, Curtis Stevens will face Saul Roman in Connecticut in a bout that will be broadcast on NBC Sports. Stevens visited with us on the latest edition of BoxingScene Radio to talk about the fight and his future plans.

The Brooklyn, NY native said that he respects Roman and knows he's a good fighter. He does however doubt that his opponent can withstand hia power.

"I got Saul in front of me. He's a Mexican. He comes to fight and I do too. People will see a good fight on Saturday. He's been down but he gets back up. We'll see if he can handle my power," Stevens stated.

Stevens feels that he is ready to fight for a title but doesn't think there is much incentive for the belt holders to face him right now so he wants to increase his profile.

Stevens better knock Roman the fuck out.

Why waste a HBO date on you? If anything, he can fight you in his December fight

Well it's either him or Mora by the looks of things.

Rosado is a pretty decent puncher and so is Macklin... Stevens would get "good boy'd"

[Light_Speed]

That's true but you couldn't stop Jesse Brinkley. Mora is more deserving of a shot right now.

only if the geale/barker winner doesn't step up

Same old ****, Macklin preached the same sentence... when will they learn, the guys had close to 400 fights, pretty sure he's faced em all.

I like Stevens. He a decent fighter and seems to be improving. I like his confidence as well. I don't think he's ready for a title shot yet though. If he fights Golovkin at the end of the year, he gets completely ruined. I think Stevens team is smarter than that though. I would put him in against a guy like Macklin or Mora next not GGG.
