    HBO will throw money at that fight, there ain't no way they don't get that done.

      What's with this sites fascination with power punchers?
      He outright ducked him. He wants Froch or Bute, who are SMWs, instead of Kovalev, who is actually in his division. That's the most obvious duck you'll ever see, without actually coming out and saying 'I'm scared'.

        Stevenson ain't ducking. People just blind themselves to the fact that boxing is a business and fighters want to get paid.

          I got Superman over KOvalev. Two big punchers, but I think Stevenson's subtle movements and quick counters will land on Sergey. Obviously a win is only a landed punch away for either guy.
          I think Stevens chin might be an issue aswell as his lack of inside game.

          Will definitely be an explosive fight though.

            That's how I see it, I don't really see one being superior to the other.

              His mind's all over the place due to the question about fighting Kovalev.

                People are always so quick to yell 'duck'.

                Tough fight, but I'm liking Stevenson for the win too.

                  He was facing a guy who didn't want to throw any punches for 90% of the fight without ever being the aggressor and was just running around waiting to counter. That's very difficult to look great against, and Stevenson looked very good considering what he had in front of him. Other fighters would just mentally shutting down and start cruising ala Gamboa.

                      I can't wait, this fight is on the level of Donaire-Rigondeaux, but with KO artists for the lineal LHW title. Put this is in Canada and you have an incredible atmosphere to make the event even more memorable.

                      Judges won't have a chance to rob anyone in this fight. Someone is getting KO'd.
