Golovkin vs. Stevens Deal Reached

[BoxingGenius27]

No it won't be. Stevens does literally nothing better than GGG. It will be total destruction.

no not at all. stevens wasn't competitive with brinkley and just went into survival mode. he was competitive against findley though lol. that's his class. basically a journeyman with a big punch who can ko other journeyman, but against elite fighters is completely dominated.

Stevens came up short at 168. At 160, I give him a punchers chance. More of a punchers chance than Macklin and Rosado. But for every 4 solid punches GGG lands, Stevens lands 1.

You never know that one could be a game changer, but overall I agree that GGG stops him

Ken Hershman say said the days of showcasing fights are over when they stop doing business with Golden Boy; but thats all they are doing with GGG is giving him shiwcase fights.

He's probably got overrated power at this point. GGG will wreck him, literally.

joke fight....tanks to all the idiots who bought the Stevens hype...First decent shot GGG lands and Stevens is gonna take a dive out of the ring...

Once punch kO power is there... but it only lasts for the first 1-3 rounds with it rapidly diminishing from there.

Predicting a body punch ko

This will be Golovkin's last fight this year two.

Hopefully the other MW contenders grow some balls in 2014.

I'll wait until this is true. If it is, a lot of "now" guys will be eating crow AND wiping egg off of their faces. #Lmmfao

Curtis Stevens is a c class bum, how ever I don't mind this fight. its always good to see fighters who think they are better than they are get humbled.

you guys are just hating, HBO probably didnt approve Mora because that would be a boring fight, Mora is a spoiler and doesnt fight. Stevens is being talked about because of the KO and this will be a solid fight as long as it lasts. You guys said no one is testing GGGs chin, how would Mora test his chin?

Barker / Geale are both afraid of GGG and they both want to fight Sturm next if they win, so who besides Stevens is there for GGG? No one! I am happy there is finally a fight with a guy that will try to hit GGG.

I thought that Stevens wasn't going to take the fight?
