Stevenson ran from Kovalev claiming he wanted to fight Hopkins, then Hopkins said Stevenson didn't even return his calls

Adonis-Pascal is actually a pretty good fight, as long as the Haitian solidarity stuff doesnt get in the way.
Pretty fun to also see Team Stevenson getting all the "boxing is a business" crap used against them
Sweet karma.

It was obvious this fight was not going to take place. Stevenson and his team are simply not willing to make big fights. They've given us no indication to say otherwise.
As I said in another thread, there is no way Pascal is taking less than 50/50. He's already an established name, and he's the one setting records at the Bell Centre.
You could get away with a 70-30 split against Kovalev, but not with Pascal. Especially if the fight is in the Bell Centre.
Expect him to fight Campillo in September.

"Whoever is on Stevenson's side or Yvon Michel's, should be kicking a can right now with cement in the can, and that will really hurt your toe. That deal should have been set in stone as soon as he walked across the street [to Showtime]. As soon as he walked across the street they should have worked on that."
"I said 'Okay, let's pull the trigger, let's go.' HBO stepped up. Main Events stepped up. And the other side hadn't gotten back with my team yet, so I looked it like 'Hey, I'm not going to sit around and wait and fight just to keep fighting at this stage of my career.'"
"When did you do that article? Because that's who (sic) long I've been trying to get this deal done [with Stevenson]."

Hopkins' resume at age 40+ is tougher than Stevenson's entire resume. I tend to believe him over the chickenpimp.
Stevenson himself acted like he jumped networks because he was after Hopkins, then he gets there, fights Fonfara and doesn't return Hopkins' phone calls? LOLLast edited by E. O. Wilson; 08-05-2014, 06:15 PM.
