Will Stevenson have the last laugh?

I have a feeling this ish is going to get me in the Stevenson defense force
If it hasn't already.
Tbf I didn't keep up with the negotiations or whatever. Gutted it happened but at the end of the day we have B-Hop vs Kovalev to look forward and Stevenson will most certainly target the winner.
Lets face it, Kovalev ain't a draw atm, if he beats B-Hop things change drastically.Comment

This could be said about Kovalev too.
Kovalev got decked by Boone as well, saved by the bell & awarded a gift decision by all accounts.
And was dropped by Caparello, footstomp or not.
I've seen nothing to suggest he is mentally weak. He got up like champions do, made adjustments and took back over.Comment

he is definitely mentally weaker than kovalev and hopkins to a point where it matters a lotThis could be said about Kovalev too.

you can see it from the way he carries himself in interviews, im not gonna keep harping on about it but im adamant thats the case and you will see it in a fight soonComment

People hate on Stevenson more for ducking Kovalev worse than a 5 year old boy ducks cooties. The severe hate didn't start until he did that.We have a great fight to look forward to.
He will fight the winner after, boxing fans are just so impatient.
If I was Stevenson I wouldn't fight them either. Why would you when you could make 5 times as much fighting Pascal or Bute in Canada for instance? Makes no sense.
Froch did the same with Stevenson.
People just hate Stevenson because of his past. Its disgusting but it was 10-15 years or whatever back. I'll judge him for his in-ring ability.Comment

I felt the same and felt it was because he is a spammer. He tends to spam the same punches over & over (also loads up too much)
Do you think this could be what gives you the impression?
I feel hes shown he can adjust on the fly and shown a lot of dimensions in his last few fights. Admittedly the competition hasn't helped. Bellew gave him too much respect & Cloud, old Mr Cloud made him look like Rigo!Comment

Good power, good speed, decent reflexes.
But his offense is extremely limited, I don't see much inside fighting ability and his defense is leaky.
Also not sold on his chin or stamina.
Don't get me wrong I think he's a good fighter just not overly good.
I also wish he'd hurry up and change his entrance music to WWF Godfather - Pimpin' ain't easy.Comment
