What has Stevenson gained thus far by signing with Haymon?

[Deevel916]

-He's lost the momentum he had during his HBO run

-He's lost the respect of the majority of boxing fans aside from those who worship Haymon

-He's lost out on 3 high profile fights against Bhop/Kovalev/Pascal

-He's lost out on the paydays associated with those fights and is making less for fighting lesser opponents

-He claims he will fight Kovalev but due to the politics involved (Haymon/showtime/HBO/etc) I don't see how this is possible.

-Kov just crushed Pascal and it lessens the appeal of a possible Pascal/Stevenson matchup. It will just look like he's feasting on Kov's leftovers


So what was the upside to jumping ship and signing with Haymon?

[CANELOLUJAH]

Nothing he stock has dropped, only reason he relevant is because people want to see the kovalev fight.

[BattlingNelson]

He has managed to stay champion longer than he would have if he had not signed with Haymon.

[PAC-BOY]

Hes been made to look like a coward...like most of Haymon fighters.

Easier fights for less money.

[Deevel916]

If I was him, I'd feel like the only azz right now. He sold his soul and not only has he gotten nothing in return, he's lost out on mega fights/paydays and I see nothing on the horizon that can turn his stock around.

Avoided being beaten more important than the championship I would say.

You're right though, he hasn't gained anything except managing to duck Kovalev.

He got paid 2 mil each time vs shotsky and fonfara
