Comments Thread For: Stevenson's Trainer 100% Confident Adonis KO's Kovalev

[Muscles72]

Lets put it this way they're both big punchers and neither have a great defense so that being said one of them will get knocked out if that fight ever happens it will be a must see they're both very good if that fight happens it will never go 12
Rds. When kovalev fought Hopkins the only reason hopkins survived because of his defense and footwork anybody else would've never finished.

Too bad Superduck himself wasn't confident enough to even get in the ring with Kovalev, let alone knock him out.

correct.

if Stevenson actually steps up the fight nwill end by KO/TKO. But it wont be Kovalev getting stopped!

[Mr.Daddy]

Well, Mr. Sugar Hill is 100% wrong. and if Adonis ever signs to fight Kovalev, all of us will see Stevenson beaten to a pulp by Sergey.

talk is cheap.

stop running like all your other afro homies, all you cowards do is run and make excuses learn to be a man and man it up.

I noticed that too with African-American fighters.

Stevenson has done a real good job of killing his career in the last 12 months, but there's no doubt he remains a dangerous fighter. However - a fight that I saw as maybe just slightly in Kovalevs favour (perhaps 60 / 40) at the start of 2014 I now see as being more like 80 / 20.

Kovalev has shown that he has both the stamina and patience to box over 12 rounds aside from his undeniable ability to close the show, but despite the unspectacular showing against Fonfara, Stevenson also demonstrated that he shouldn't be overlooked: - despite the flak he got for the fight, Sukhotski was a pretty solid contender who's never really looked close to being stopped (at least AFAIK) before getting destroyed by Stevensons left.

The most important thing is that this fight gets to happen though. It would have been perfect in early to mid 2014 with both guys riding their impressive KO streaks, but it still remains the fight to make at LHW, and with the Kovalev - Pascal fight happening first, will leave us with the rarity of a truly undisputed champion in the division by the end of the year.

Yeah cause black people are such cowards. Black men need to "man up". Black fighters are duckers. Everything black is bad. I even heard the hbo commentator call Deontay Wilder a great black hope. A lot of y'all who have a problem with Mayweather and now Stevenson just have a problem with black people.

What else have you noticed?

[Mr.Daddy]

Watch those early fights, you'll see Stevenson using both hands. And some of the KO blows coming from the right.
Adonis Stevenson knows how to use his left, but it doesn't mean the right hand has no power. Because if you watch carefully, if Stevenson needs to use his right, he'll use it and it hurts.
- Just look his right arm, it's a copy of the left.
The more dangerous you are, the better Stevenson becomes. Adonis Stevenson is a strong natural smart fighter which will KO Kovalev easy.

So what happened against Fonfara?

[TheThirdEye]

Right on. If the Duck Team were so sure that Adonis would beat Kovalev they could have have gone ahead with that fight for Kathy Duva then moved on to a big unification battle with BHop afterwards. That would have been by far the best option, financially and in every other way - IF they thought Adonis would beat Kovalev.

1) Hopkins ask Stevenson to come to Showtime to fight him.
2) The Undisputed title belts were moving around Showtime, IBF & WBA
3) Kovalev had no value back then, WBO is not needed for the Undesputed title.
4) Adonis Stevenson would be stuck under an HBO contract with less per fight than what Showtime was offering.
5) Hopkins had a much greater value, Hopkins was fighting on Showtime but no one knew he wasn't under a contract with Showtime, so he easely jumped boat to HBO to fight Kovalev for less.
- WHY ?: Stop lying to yourselves and answer logically to this question:

Now, Haymon will try to find a solution with the 2 networks, Showtime & HBO.
Do you see Stevenson complaining, actually you didn't notice Stevenson's quite happy about it, did you notice.
But your fanaticism mixed with the bias medias (Dan Rafael), made you perceive Stevenson as a timid fighter.
It's a shame for your hopes, when you'll see Kovalev lying on the ground after the brutal KO Stevenson will inflict him.
