Comments Thread For: Bellew Tabs Adonis Stevenson To Overcome Kovalev

[guitarboyled]

Wait how so? I just showed you Cleverly > Bellew, Campillo > Cloud, so looks like Kov's are more credible, other than a single (no plural there, as in "opponents") Stevenson opponent who'd just taken a punishing, career damaging loss.

Kov would have also faced better ones like Stevenson, but he refuses etc.

A bum beats a bum who beats a bum and somehow we have a king

Yeah..I vaguely remember reading he thought Cleverly was going to beat Kovalev

and even after the fight I remember him saying something like "he would have won if...."

theres always something to learn from fighters but predicting the outcomes of fights is tough for anyone

Adonis is taking a fight or two before Kovalev for financial reasons! You need to calm down with these scenarios in your heads!

Once he beats Kovy there's no where else to go! He would be an idiot for taking that fight right now!

Luckily for him he has better management than that.

That's fine, I don't have a problem with it, just using your own words against you.

Ok so, Cleverly was probably in some top 20 when Kovy faced him! Still doesn't make him a great fighter in my book! The first time he faced a little competition, he lost his belt. And we all know he'll never be champion again.

Obviously Kovalev has power but will it be enough? I think not!

No he was top 5 in all the rankings. In any case, Cleverly > Bellew, Campillo > Cloud. So Stevenson's comp is even worse, except the guy that was just destroyed one fight prior. Sounds unproven and undeserving of the Froch, Hopkins fights, not that they're makeable. That's ok, he'll settle for the Fonfara megafight.

This fight is a good one to look forward to, both of them meeting is only a matter of time. I want this fight to get bigger and in the next 18 months it will. Both would probably have 2 belt each and then they can face off for the whole lot.
