Comments Thread For: Adonis Stevenson Baits Foes: I'm The Man at 175!

[trufightfanatic]

Stevenson is the Man at 175, yep he is the Man who avoided fights with Paschal, Hopkins and Kovalev. Lol

[MELLY-MEL...]

Not really

Impartial

Sukhotsky beat Brahmer; any decent referee would have stop this fight in the 10th round. Not saying that he was a great threat to Stevenson, and so were not Agnew and Caparello for Kovalev in his build up. Stevenson vs Kovalev will happen, no doubt about it, and with their respective power it could go either way.

Just Another Hooker From The Brothel Of Pimp Al Haymon

When asked about fighting Kovalev, he deferred to his pimp Al Haymon by saying "I'll let him choose". That's what Haymon's contracts with Danny Garcia, Stevenson and all the rest of 120 fighters reads. Fighters just fight; Al decides on all opponents. So the answer is "No". Al isn't going to subject him to much risk the same way Garcia and Lamont Peterson were on the same card and Al wouldnt unify by allowing them to fight one another. They ducked Kovalev, Hopkins and now Pascal. Al wants "names" and alphabet belt holders like "Ring Magazine" (lol) to align with tomato cans for a quick trick turned, and a safe payday for Pimp Al and his brothel of fighters. They are all tied to SHO, which is why SHO produced horrible year of fights. Stevenson is just another illiterate who bows down to his pimp. He can say what he wants but he did nothing more than collect a paycheck against a nobody, and ducked the best competition in 2014.

. . . . maybe a little harsh but very true hahaha

Stevenson did all the right moves in 2014.

Moving to Showtime for more money and a guaranteed fight with Hopkins was the right thing to do. Unfortunately for him, Kovalev who couldn't generate $$ to save his life agreed to fight Hopkins for peanuts (probably 10-20% of all revenues.)

Because Hopkins was assured to loose against both, he picked the most lucrative fight.

Obviously that left Stevenson with few options but still gave us good fights in 2014 dominating two top 10 fighters.

Some might say Adonis got exposed against Fonfara but the way I see it, he proved he can come back stronger after taking a punch... And that's bad news for Pascal and Kovalev!

stevenson vs kovalev. great fight. kstevenson by decision or mid to late stoppage. kovalev has no defense at all.

Kovalev is light years ahead of Stevenson in regards to defense. Adonis reminds me of Sergio from a few years ago: fights with his hands down, relies on his athletic ability, his offense is his defense, etc. Superman has been knocked out, put down by the likes of Fonfara. Kovalev is too balanced and Stevenson's style plays right into his hands.
