vera did a good job bullying the bigger guy but he fell for that feint jab-left hook too often. even buckled a few times
as far as stevenson, he's a monster. hopkins would def be eating leather if they fight nd vs kovalev would be fireworks, superman kos him, lefts too strong

But Stevenson is the WBC champion....they don't really encourage unification fights and actually force the fighter to drop one of the belts in the event that a unification happens.

Man where was Stevenson all these years?! The man isn't just a bomber, he's a puncher, boxer, entertainer and a STAR! The canadian crowd was great, overreacting to even big shot Stevenson landed.
Berto is the odd man out here...Stivern, Stevenson, and Pascal (nevermind the schooling by Hop) are repin' Haiti, while Berto is a gait keeper.
My honest opinion is that Vera won the fight. But Chavez was catching him with some VICIOUS shots. A couple buckled Vera. So while Vera was robbed, he got caught enough to give the judges an excuse to hand Chavez the gift on the I-dont-judge-on-workrate reason.
Chavez's constant crying to the ref on every foul got old, but the ref was allowing thr rough stuff.
Cloud...Cloud...the Campillo fight!Ruined him. He had never been beaten up like that. Then he fires the trainer that up until that point he was undefeated with! Goes in there with a new trainer and gets outboxed by a 48 year old man. I knew he was done then, which is why I thought signing on with Stevenson was suicide. Roy Jones tried to support his fellow Floridian...but the man was finished.
