Comments Thread For: King Aims To Stage Stiverne's First Defense in Mexico

[STEELHEAD]

don king "We don't care who the opponent will be, we want to know where the site for the fight will be."

he said that too nonchalantly. somethings up.

Stiverne will fight a nobody and take a year off. People are kidding themselves if you think he will be a legit defender.

[umop-ap!sdn]

i know Stiverne won't duck anyone, he's a legit threat to beat any heavyweight out and he knows it. But a Wilder fight is too risky for Don and company if they intend on keeping Stiverne a champion for a long time like they say he will be. I'm sure King will find a way to work around Wilder for a couple fights .

How did Thrilla in Manila make any? If folks are willing to fork over and dump their wallets in Casinos on the Las Vegas strip, i'm sure they are willing to go South and enjoy a good scrap with cheap liquor and good food. Mexico can and has provided the world with several world class facilities for different sports on the world stage. Plus Mexicans just want to see a fight and get drunk, I'm sure it will do fine. Oh and it's the WBC, they are based in Mexico so it kinda makes sense on the sanctioning bodies side too lol.

Good Point

Enlightening post my good sir, what exactly is a hell-WHOLE? I will appreciate your hasty and elaborate reply.

You need a tissue? You're sobbing through my screen here

Im still confused why not have the fight in Haiti? Stiverne could do his country some good with a couple fights in Haiti and Canada

a bout vs Ruiz would b a natural in MX...

i think you may have come across as offensive...an apology would be cool...some people love their countries...its up to you ,of course.

Nice thought 33030, but unfortunately...professional boxing isn't about doing good for one's country, but rather about making $$$. And, making money is what Don King is, and has always been about.
