Comments Thread For: Adonis Stevenson-Tavoris Cloud: Pre-Fight Report Card

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

By Cliff Rold - Matchmaking need not be magic.

Sometimes, it’s pretty basic.

Take one pressuring, heavy-handed fighter with a good beard and mix with a genuine one-punch nuclear weapon whose chin remains a question mark. Shake. Stir.

Explode.

Two weeks after a great show, fight fans have a potentially great main event on Saturday night. And in one of those funny boxing oddities, one fight after losing a belt in the class, the challenger has a chance to become history’s Light Heavyweight king.

Let’s go the report cards. Cloud comes into this fight knowing his back is against the wall. How will the Hopkins loss affect him? Does he dig deep and go for broke? Or has a career mired in inactivity over the years already passed him by? [Click Here To Read More]

Wow, picking Cloud to get the win? You do bring up good points in your analysis but I'm not so sure about this one.

Stevenson has better power and he's got some swagger to him after what he did to Dawson. Not to mention the home country advantage. Hard to go against all of that IMO.

I'm close to the only guy in the press picking him. It was like 18-1 among the guys Ring asked for picks. LOL

There's always one in every crowd

Stevenson knocks out a mentally shattered and softened Chad Dawson and suddenly, everyone is all over his **** like he'll score a one punch knockout in every fight until he retires. I hope Cloud kills this guy. I wanna see him flop around like a fish out of water, Apollo Creed style.

Adonis has weak chin and he is not so good on inside.
My prediction for the fight:
Tavoris will avoid big bombs in early rounds, and from middle rounds he will come close and destroy Stevenson in 6-7-8 round TKO.

Cloud would be a no brainer pick, but after his last loss, he may be showing up for the paycheck....
