    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
    i agree with you on that note

      But look how bad Hopkins struggled with Dawson.

        I have now come to a conclusion that Adonis Stevenson is insecure and very, very easy to wind up.

        He needs to calm down he reminds me of a 13 year old

          ?????? uhhhh Stevenson is a southpaw so that would mean he jabs with the right hand therefor he wouldn't throw an over hand right

            1) yes Adonis is very insecure 2) Those are mind games, do you think someone can get Floyd / Cotto / Ward / Canelo / any mentally tuff fighters to do what Bhop did to them? When you get to a certain level, its small things that give you a mental edge ! Stop complaining and think about it. The answer he got from Stevenson is what he was looking for. If he ever fights Stevenson, he will turn him into a basket case. I think the only fighter in his weight class that he might not be able to fluster is Kovalev, due to 1) not fluent in the English language, and 2) John David Jackson has trained Hopkins before, so he will know what to do when certain things are happening - All of this outside the ring of course.

                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.
                That's where you're wrong. It's all part of the game if you ask me. You think he told his 'secrets' accidentally? With mind games you may be able to out think a thinker. I don't doubt for a sec that Bhop said that shxt on purpose to get in Stevensons head, and look what happened. Now Adonis is all riled up. It's all part of the game. Gotta peel back the top layers, don't be so simple man.

                  I like BHOP ,but this would be a KO waiting to happen, never been KO but Stevenson would hurt BHOP. BHOP would have to hold 2 minutes & 30 seconds of each round just to have a chance.

                    Kovalev need to knock this "millionaire" out. Will only take 1 punch like the beginning of street fighter 2.
