    Adonis Stevenson vs Bernard Hopkins / Carl Froch ... Who Wins?

    Adonis Stevenson called out Bernard Hopkins and Carl Froch.

    Does B-Hop make history all over again and overcome the speed of Stevenson? In some ways, Adonis reminds me of Jean Pascal with the speed and foot movement - B-Hop beat Pascal.

    Carl Froch - coming up from 168 in his first light heavyweight 175 fight against Stevenson - does he have any chance, considering his last performance against Groves, a much faster fighter than Froch? Or will moving up in weight somehow benefit Froch? Remember Stevenson, too, moved up to the full 175 limit for the first time against Dawson this year.

    Stevenson KO's Froch, but gets schooled by B-Hop.

        Stevenson would beat both. B-hop is a legend and an ATG but....... he is still almost 50 years old. Stevenson IMO might be a little too fresh, too fast, and strong for B-hop at this point.

        Froch is tough as nails but is not really the hardest guy to hit. Stevenson too big and hits too hard for froch.

          I know he wants to cash out, but I don't see great acclaim in calling out grandpa and a lower weight. Unless he wants to go to England and Froch gets paid 1000 trillion dollars.

          who that heck calls out a lower weight?

              I think Stevenson beats them both. And since this is a business he will go for the higher payday so Kovalev will be out of luck unless HBO sweetness the pot enough.

                Stevenson I'd say CAN beat Hopkins, but you never know. I feel like Hopkins has the skills to neutralize the left hand and I feel he has better ring movement that Stevenson. Also won't be scared to get up close to Stevenson which could trouble Stevenson.

                I think he can beat Froch and possibly stop him.

                  Hopkins will beat him. If there is one thing Hopkins can do it's get inside and hold his opponents. Stevenson needs distance to land his punches. He just stays on the outside pumps his jab, then springs in with a left hand. He has no right hand at all. You need more than that against Hopkins. I like Hopkins to school him in a decision.

                  Carl Froch on the other hand... I think it's a much more interesting fight. That's a toss up for me. Especially with the way Froch has looked recently against Kessler and Groves.
