BAHHAH I'm LOVING Superman's tenacity lately. He's lining em up in his scope and gettin ready to shoot em down. Stevenson is too good a boxer to lose to Hopkins at his age. And most of you will be surprised when the Kovalev fight gets made. Bet ur money that Adonis aint scared and will put Kovalev out of his misery. Yupp... i said it, first post. Stevenson CRUSHES the Crusher Kovalev Let the hate begin!

Stevenson took advantage of underage girls, now he's going after pensioners.

Hopkins would completely school Stevenson. Kovalev would knock him out.

I dont think Bernard will ever be too old to beat Stevenson

Stevenson really is that deep in your heart? A lot of love for the guy? If you just can't see Kovalev KOing Stevenson, you might just need therapy. Also, you seem to underestimate Bernard. Having said that, I can see Stevenson, and Kovalev, giving Bernard a lot of problems(even disregarding his age). Those two would give problems to any fighter within their weight in my opinion.

Stevenson can't box he is just athletic. He is a poor man's Roy Jones.
All he does is throw a jab and then over hand right. His speed makes this work on most fighters but won't get it off on B Hop

To be fair , Bernard does struggle against athletic fighters.

Hopkins is not as clever as he thinks he is. S***t like that only works if you do it secretly. So if he did have any control over Stevenson's mind, he just blew it!
He tried to rattle Calzaghe by looming over him like a big scary giant. When Joe stepped up laughed in his face, it was Hopkins who got rattled and blurted out that dumb S***t about never losing to a white boy. Lol.

Stevenson: you are answering to this are you not? You see? It worked. He's beating you and you have not laced a glove yet.

Now to all of you of North America that cannot figure out why the Eastern Europeans are so successful in this sport, understand they never fall for this stuff firstly because of the language barrier and, secondly, because they are taught at a very young agae everyone in the world is just another opponent and they can only be beaten in the ring because their own inability or lack of effort.
