    Like I said I am glad you feel that way, I could not care much less but good for you.

      I only care enough at you to laugh at you andyour fellow floms/haymoneggers. This gave me a laugh as what you are saying is ludicrous from a boxing fans perspective and its not only me saying, so suck it up. There's a good lad!

          Not trying to "take you apart" pal. We obviously just disagree on the issue.



          Yeah....like that was a "mistake"

          You don't fool anyone.
          No Dirk, it was a mistake. You can pretend otherwise if it helps you frame me as a poster since you really are not making any coherent points in this thread.

          Is what it is dude. but hey, you got gong on agreeing with you. That must make you feel good about yourself.

            Is Kovalev-Stevenson not bigger than it has ever been?

            If Stevenson can take care of business against Bika on CBS (leaving Bika laid out), that should only add on. That said the best laid plans in boxing often fall apart so who knows maybe karma will catch Stevenson before the plan can come off properly.

            I know most would be happy with that sort of thing but then you end up with Kovalev-Bika which no matter how Stevenson-Bika goes that wouldn't get my boxing juices flowing like Kovalev-Stevenson.
            Kovalev vs Stevenson is still big, but not because of anything that Stevenson has done. Aduckis was the A side, but Kovalev has since surpassed him in defeating Hopkins and Pascal. Quakenson had first shot at these two, but sqaundered the opportunities. Instead, he fought Fonfara, who dropped him, and Sukhotsky, who "****** lotsky".

            Stevenson fighting SMW journeyman Sakio Bika does not in any way enhance anticipation for a fight against Kovalev. The moment of the greatest anticipation for that fight was replaced by the tremendous disappointment felt, when Stevenson bolted to Showtime and Haymon.

              An optometrist? And I do every year.
              An optometrist is the doctor who tests your vision, an optician is the person who fits you for and sells you your eye ware or contact lenses.

              Now you can go to sleep smarter tonight as you have learned something new.

                All that stuff really doesn't matter, and honestly the fight will probably be in Montreal anyway since the money is there, so other than maybe getting less than 50% it isn't a big deal. But if that less than 50% is greater than the more than 50% he would have got as the a-side then he didn't go off the rails that much.

                I will say this people especially hardcore boxing fans totally discount looking impressive when being viewed by a large audience regardless of the opposition. That fight is on CBS how many untrained eye balls are going to be on that show? More than trained ones I know for certain.

                In boxing sometimes bull****ing while an opponent gets shine can work out just fine in boxing, as long as a guy isn't hung up on that a-side stuff.

                  The eye doctor was always the ones that fitted my lenses, astigmatism is a *****.

                    Frame you?

                    You're not hard to suss out, Dunn. You're about as subtle as a fat bird trying to get up out of a beanbag.

                      Yeah, you make a lot of those 'mistakes' when it comes to your campaigning.
