Comments Thread For: Stevens Vows Upset: I'm Here To Prove Everyone Wrong

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

It’s been a long road to respectability for middleweight contender Curtis Stevens. The Brooklyn-based knockout artist has literally punched his way back into contention, running off four straight wins to earn a crack at unbeaten middleweight titlist Gennady Golovkin.

The scheduled 12-round title fight headlines an HBO-televised show on November 2, live from The Theatre at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The location of the title fight is relatively close to Stevens’ childhood hometown in Brownsville (Brooklyn), New York, but the dream of ever fighting for a major belt seemed to be a million miles away in the eyes of most observers.

Such skepticism stems from two of the more notable entries on Stevens’ résumé, both of which resulted in career-worst performances while on display for a national audience. His lone previous HBO appearance came way back in 2007, where he dropped an uncompetitive decision to Andre Dirrell in a stinker of a fight where the victor ran for 10 rounds, while Stevens appeared clueless as to how to cut off the ring and neutralize his opponent.

I have seen Stevens fight at Manhattan Center NYC...

Stevens I am rooting for you, but you are not going to win, seen you fight in person you almost put me to sleep. Boring! GGG will win by technical ko, or by ko.

The Findley fight which is not mentioned proved that he is still the same fighter that fought Brinkley. Rozier isnt meant for the pro level, he should stick to the amateurs

Beat this clowns ass Stevens. GGs fans know not to talk like Matthysses fans did. Remember Stevens, boxers always beat sluggers. Take his power away. After that GG can't box.

What a silly post. Golovkin is a slugger? Stevens is a boxer?


You don't win 350 amateur bouts by simply being a "slugger" with power. This is why a lot of people are going to be in for a surprise when Golovkin steps up. They think he's just some crude power puncher. He's an excellent technician/boxer who just so happens to have the power to take heads off. Scary.

I don't mean to rag on you bro, but your keys to victory are all wrong. With that said, I'm with you, I want Stevens to beat his ass. It's a fight that he can win if he has confidence in himself to pull it off.
