    Stevenson on Showtime gets a chance to collect 2 more titles

    Cna Kovalev not come to Showtime by the beginning of next year and fight the winner of Hopkins Stevenson and unify the division? If Stevenson did not make this move we have 0 chance for a undisputed champ at 175

    True but fans don't care as much as they do with the killa Kov vs superman fight. That's what we all want.

      We have pretty much zero chance now thanks to Stevenson.

      Why couldn't Stevenson fight Kovalev instead of the bum he is fighting next? Unify the two belts and then *** off to Showtime to unify all 4 with Hopkins.

      Then we would have had an undisputed champion in two fights you dummy.

          Why would Duva go to Showtime with Kovalev?
          They have a spot primetime with HBO and Duva has a chance to get her other fighters on there. You think they're going to wreck it going by going to Showtime that plays favorites with Haymon and GBP, then put their fighters on hold because they don't have enough money in their budget to put on the fights they want?

          They're building a good working relationship with HBO now for the future, backstabbing them will do wonders for her and Main Events

          You talk business, then do a 180 and blow it out your ass

            You're right, LarryXXX. By going to Showtime he has a chance of unifying 3 belts. Plus a fight with Hopkins would probably make him more money than a fight with Kovalev if we're being honest. He made the right business move.

            It's just that people (me included) were looking forward to seeing him and Kovalev go to war. That's why everyone is pissed and disappointed.

              I'll laugh if in the near future Stevenson and company say the Kovalev fight can't happen because of network differences.

                  Stevenson loves belts so much that he avoided a belt holder to fight a non-belt holder......... for less money

                    This.

                    I don't blame him for taking the chance at being undisputed champ, but I just wish we got to see him vs. KOvalev. He did seem shook whenever Kovalev was brought up though
