Comments Thread For: Adonis Stevenson Dominates and Stops Tavoris Cloud

[ddangerous]

I think Cloud indicated that he didn't want to fight then his corner stopped it, because Cloud didn't even go to sit in his stool when the round was over.

I thought the same thing.

Isn't this the piece of filth that pimped out under aged girls and beat them? I hope someone beats him out of the sport.

Yep, same guy. I just can't get behind him as a fan knowing what a vile piece of **** he is.

My boy Adonis shoving his past in all the haters faces. Good show.

Disgraceful. Only a P.O.S. would think it was cool to shove the above bold into people's faces.

Gonzalez Coming off two loss's. When was he last relevant in the early 00's?

Perhaps he just moved up in class?

Fights a bum - Amazing KO artist.

Moves up in class to decent level fighters - Struggles badly or arguably loses.

Moves up to top level - Wins a total of 3 rounds or less across fights with Campillo, Hopkins and Stevenson.

The guy is and has always been pure garbage.

Who looks great against Glenn Johnson? All of a sudden struggling with him makes you a bum? That makes Tarver/Dawson/Froch bums. Also Clinton Woods is as game as they come.

Just because he didn't blow those guys out doesn't make him a bum or a bad fighter, now you're talking about Campillo,Hopkins and Stevenson. Those are all fights he fought under Don King. If you don't see the difference between the young Tavoris Cloud and what he has become the last few years then you weren't watching him fight.

Like I said he used to be a beast, now he is a fighter who lost his fire and just goes through the motions.

great performance by Stevenson. He had a game plan and it worked since Cloud could hardly touch him. That was the key.

Struggling with Johnson to the point where the fight could have gone either way doesn't make you a "Beast", no.

Struggling with a "Game" 37 year old Clinton Woods doesn't make you a beast, no.

Struggling badly with Yusuf Mack doesn't make you a "Beast", no.

I suppose when he signed with Don King he just magically turned terrible?

I suppose it's also a huge coincidence that the level of opposition is much higher?

The "young" Tavoris Cloud, the "Beast", is the one that knocks out Unranked bums.

Literally the only fighter that Cloud has stopped that wasn't a bum or completely washed up coming off loss's is Yusuf Mack who has one of the worst chins in Boxing and it still took him 8 Rounds in a fight he was struggling badly with.

Beast!!

I think it is more of Roy building up Cloud in order to make Stevenson's win more impressive. By the 5th round they were calling Stevenson a superstar in the making and by the end of the fight he was a superstar selling 9K seats in Quebec. I don't agree with it, but I understand. HBO needs more something to make up for the loss of Haymon and Goldenboy.

I think they were just as clueless as most people were. Roy kept mentioning Hopkins-Cloud as if Adonis needed to watch that fight, he already fights that way. Since he's a southpaw, the Campillo fight would make more sense to watch anyway.

I must be a P.O.S. then and I'll enjoy it as Adonis keeps beating overhyped fighters not worthy of said hype.

Cloud was so terrible, i cant believe he got this fight. His performance was pathetic, wow

Gets dominated in his last 2 fights, was the Favourite (Only God and Lord Angel themselves know how) in both and wins at best, 3 rounds.

Get's title shot..

Why? Just because.

Like I said Glen Johnson is tough as nails and gives everybody a tough fight, A lot of people thought Johnson beat Dawson just 9 months before fighting Cloud.

We're talking about the same Dawson who was on P4P lists and was getting praised as the next great American fighter.

Campillo was also a fighter who was a tough out for anybody until he himself probably got tired of getting robbed and has become a broken fighter.

Hopkins? Who the fooks looks great against Hopkins win lose or draw?

The issue isn't whether Cloud is losing or struggling against these fighters you are trying to make out to be a walk in the park for anybody. Cloud is a broken fighter now, he's not the same guy who was walking down fighters and letting his hands go, he's a shell of his former self and looks shot at 31.

Don King has a history of signing fighters and destroying their careers now, he puts them on the shelf and the guys slowly but surely turn into shit. It's a pretty well known fact singing with Don King now is career suicide.

You have to be pretty blind to not see how Cloud has lost that intensity and fire the last year years while under king, it's one thing to always have been a bum and get knocked out when you move up but the guy isn't even trying anymore. It's really night and day.

I have felt for some time Stevenson is better than he often gets credit for but WTF was Clouds gameplan in there?

I seriously think his gameplan was to block as many punches as possible with his face in hope Stevenson broke both hands.

Can not fault Clouds chin but everything else, wow. I think he is in the wrong sport, doesn't he have a wrestling background? He should maybe look at a future in MMA.
