Comments Thread For: Stevens: I'm Coming To Wreck The Wrecking Machine

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Even before his frightening 1st round knockout win over Saul Roman this past summer, Curtis Stevens (25-3, 18KO) was already targeting a showdown with unbeaten middleweight titlist Gennady Golovkin.

His pursuit of the latest to wear the ‘most feared fighter on the planet’ label was as bold as was his August performance, lighting up the normally durable Roman to end things in just over two minutes. Some back and forth took place at the negotiating table, but Stevens eventually lived up to his word once the price was right, as he prepares for his first title challenge, November 2 in New York City.

As fight night draws near, the brash New Yorker remains as confident as ever of pulling off the upset. The manner in which he and his team plan to accomplish that mission remains open to debate. [Click Here To Read More]

One week from now Frank Ducketts will create a "Why I think Curtis Stevens beats Golovkin" thread. You heard it here first.

He has a punchers chance. Quick handed and has power. If he draws Golovkin into a fire fight anything could happen. He is Hungry with something to prove. Sometimes that can be the most dangerous type of an opponent. I actually think he is underrated. His handspeed is very impressive.

I will still put my money on Golovkin. If he fights like he is capable of, he will have Stevens wilting and folding by round 4. All it will take is 1 mistake and he himself could get clobbered. I started to wonder when he started getting angry over Stevens coffin stuff. He got angry, and if he enters the fight angry against a dangerous guy like Curtis, it will be a bad thing.

I do like Stevens demeanor & I'll be rooting for him. I just find it so hard to get behind GGG with all the hype and childish talk putting him up there with Monzon, Hagler etc

Hes not even #1 in his division and already being compared to ATG middleweights who ruled through tough eras for a decade. It makes me sick!

I hope Stevens lays him out just to kill the noise. I've never seen a guy get so much praise for doing jack **** in all my life.

All I can say is if Steven has even a brief moment in the fight, he should take advantage. I guess he feels rejuvenated, he might be capable of creating a window to do something but it will be fleeting

The hype and stuff a fighter gets has no bearing on what I think of a them, as that is the norm in this place. I even sometimes contribute and get caught up in it when fresh blood arrives with so much promise. I will always like fighters who have bad intent. I like Golovkin and Stevens. I just think Golovkin is more polished, but that never guarantees a win.
