I hope Hopkins smashes Stevenson for ducking Kovalev

[jas]

I understand your frustration but Kovalev just hit the scene. To say someone is ducking him already is really stretch. People barely know who this dude is. He had a really good year in boxing thats it.

when hbo front the money for 2 champions to fight on the same card then the announcer presses the questions towards them for that fight to happen .....and then they make an offer for the fight.......1 fighter bounces to showtime fighting fonfara......... its a duck.....if you dont see that, do me a favour and log off

[MDPopescu]

And what is your excuse for GGG ducking Ward so i could shut down that excuse also.

We all know that Andre Ward repeatedly called Golovkin out in the media... He called him and that's all
Please provide me with a link whatsoever which reads something about a Ward factual proposition / deal related to a next fight or to a fight on a certain date...

On another hand, TR's Arum presented Chavez Jr. with Golovkin deal for 7/12 this year...

Well, we all know that Ward is facing management legal issues... Then how does he figure out that he might get a GGG fight done next? I don't truly see how...

So as a fan you'd rather continue to watch Adonis and Kov separately fight scrubs and not get it on? That is what you are saying.

jesus christ this sport is doomed.

Not to make excuses for Adonis, and not to speak for other people, but I suspect most people would love to see Kovo vs Adonis soon.. With that being said, I can also understand why Adonis would want to round up some big paydays before he gets in the ring with Kovalev given his age and the options he has right now.

As a fan I want Kovo v Adonis yesterday, but Adonis isn't a fan he's a 36 year old prizefighter.

[Da Machine]

He won't. Hopkins really started showing his age in his last fight. Shumenov is a live dog in this fight IMO.

Kovalev hasn't done anything yet? What? He's beaten Cleverly, Campillo, Sillakh, Thompson, and White. That's a pretty decent list of wins.

Also Stevenson is fairly new as well. Stevenson just became relative maybe less then 2 years ago. Its pretty extreme to say he changed networks because of one guy.

But Adonis got the "lineal title"... remember!

Yes its not hard to understand why adonis did what he did. the issue how long can boxing sustain itself when there are no longer big fights.

even with the hordes of fanboys lusting over one-sided fights, there is a breaking point.

The Brits show the path (again)... Look what they did with those two crazy fighters: they sold 60,000 seats the same day.
