Ward is not a coward. He has no reason to go over to Nottingham. If he had lost, he would go over to Nottingham in a heartbeat and the rematch would have happened way before 2015.
Floyd is no longer a coward because he is fighting the guy we want him to fight.
Good call on Andrade. He is acting like a self absorbed prick. Someone needs to beat his ass. Lara would embarrass Andrade and I would love to see the kind of beating Julian Williams would put on Poo Poo Andrade.Comment

Pascal is a bigger name than Stevenson in Canada and had no belt, but Kovalev with 3 went to his home town. Stevenson WITH a belt and identical following would be no different.Comment

who brings in the money for the fight? Whomever that is, is the A-side.
Stevenson is a bigger gate draw than Kovalev is, and Stevenson is rolling into the negotiations with the person willing to spend the most money on the fight on his side of the table. You add that Stevenson can sell the fight on PPV in his home market, something that Kovalev can't really do, and I'm not sure what you're standing your position on.
because, let's look a the facts here:
-Kovalev went to Cardiff to fight Cleverly
-Kovalev went to Montreal to fight Pascal
-Hopkins was the draw in their fight
-the Sillah fight was the chief support for a Stevenson card in Montreal
for a guy who's supposed to call all the shots, how many tickets do you think end up being bought for Kovalev-Mohammedi? lolComment

Who cares? Kovalev loves humiliating hometown fans by pummeling their heroes infront of them. He's ready to knockout another Canadian in Montreal.Comment

Doesn't erase the last 6 years. When (if) Stevenson fights Kovy, I'll still think of him as a ducking coward that avoided the big fight as long as he could.
Running out of viable opponents, becoming a joke to boxing fans, being pressured by managers and promoters... If this is what it takes to get a "champion" in the ring to prove he's the man in his division, there's something wrong.Comment
