    Comments Thread For: Duva Reveals on Stevenson-Kovalev, Haymon, More

    Main Events CEO, Kathy Duva, is not planning to walk away without a serious fight - after the crumbling of what Duva believes was a concrete agreement for Sergey Kovalev to face Adonis Stevenson in an HBO televised light heavyweight unification in the fall.

    For much of 2013, HBO was showcasing both Stevenson and Kovalev - with the idea of matching them in a high profile fight at some point this year.

    At the end of January, the discussions between Stevenson's promoter Yvon Michel, HBO and Kovalev's promoter Main Events intensified. Both boxers were going to take interim-fights and then face each other on a date in the fall.

    If you actually have them, then do it

        Article reflects poorly on Haymon, makes him look like a real sneak.

          IF she does indeed, then I would stop talking and take action. As for Stevenson, Kovalev said it best at the end of his recent fight in AC. Adonis clearly doesn't want to fight Sergey.
          The guy is willing to put his WBO title on the line in a unification bout, and then you turn and pursue the winner out of a 50 year old and a 16 win title holder. Everyone knows the top dollar fight is Stevenson/Kovalev. That was hands down the fight everyone wanted to see. It's all people spoke about at the end of 2013. But Adonis ran away. #Notarealchamp

              Just get Kov another fight. He keeps winning and Stevenson keeps winning then itll happen. After all this hype if Kov loses then he loses more than the fight IMO. Plenty of comp out there. Cloud, Dawson, Bute, Pascal are just a few of the big names

                I wish sanctioning bodies would start mandating fights. Do it or vacate it.
                End of the day, the world wants a fight he isn't concerned about. He tried to play out HBO on the stay busy fight.

                  Cloud is off of two straight losses
                  Dawson is Al Haymon
                  Bute doesn't even know if he wants to box still
                  Pascal is what they want

                  At 175, those are pretty much the only names

                    And that's why Kovalev shouldn't sign with him. He'll only end up getting ****ed out of a lot of money.
