Comments Thread For: Kovalev, Main Events Withdraw From Stevenson Purse Bid

[hitking]

Just make this **** happen. Let Krusher Krush Adonis and get this over with already.



Come on. It's been way too long.

yea right. u wish

shut up. Floyd's going to get embarrassed by Manny next month

If this fight doesn't happen it's ALL on Haymon and Adonis.



Kovalev wants the fight. That's all that matters

Yep. She better make this **** happen.


Who the *** does she think she is? She needs to give this man what he wants..... GREATNESS. The GOAT LHW has to EAT

This is all on Adonis Stevenson and GYM. They should of made this happen in 2013....... They ducked, and now Duva is trying to ruin Kovalev.



Nobody but Adonis/GYM/Haymon should be blamed here. Fight should of been happened. No excuses

Nah team Kovalev didn't drop the ball. Katyh duva dropped the ball. Kovalev has nothing to do with this. His name doesn't even deserve to be in the sentence




Exactly. That is the solution to this. Problem solved. We all win

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

lol'd @ last part.


Great post. I agree.

That is pretty embarassing.

What the hell is this B doing

She better not ruin this ****

Exactly which is why the fight will happen.


Kovalev wants the fight. She's gonna have to do what she can to make it happen or he's leaving her ass when he can

Hbo knows their cash cow gets beat. This is a duck plain and simple

If you believe what you wrote, you haven't a clue about boxing. Kovalev and Stevenson will fight eventually on HBO, and Kovalev will beat Stevenson as he's never been beaten before. Make my words and remind me if it does not happen as I said (in other words, it will not be competitive or close). It will be a sustained beating the likes of which Stevenson has never before experienced. That is if Stevenson will actually get in the ring to fight Sergey.

No defending that. Call it a duck if you want, hope Kova leaves Main Events.
He's the only thing they have and are trying to milk him.
Hope he sees now much money is being left on the table and straight leaves

Great post !

And who does this situation reflect on the worst ?

The ignorant fanboys who jumped on the kova bandwagon and screamed that Stevenson was ducking.

Y'all look pretty dumb now !

good article by iole

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/al-haym...ory&soc_trk=tw

points out the hypocrisy of top rank and main events.

I mean look at the mares and donaire situation. haymon/shaeffer came up with the perfect proposal. purse bid, whoever puts up the most money gets to control the promotional rights to the fights,

fighters win, fans win; and if you want to look out for the best interests of your company, like main events is doing by maintaining their relationship with hbo, then fine, thats understandable, but dont go blasting haymon for doing the same thing, man very irked about this whole situation,

[Eastcoast]

So did ME & Kovalev already re-up with HBO then? I thought he only had one fight left with them. It's ******ed for HBO to stand in the way of this fight (I say let Haymon overbid on it). They have no one of significance to match him up with and fighting Stevenson will only up his brand. And why would HBO want any of ME's other fighters? Let him take the fight and welcome him back as an even bigger star. I would prefer to see HBO and Haymon start working together already.

[cupocity303]

Duva's counter offer is 50/50, so what's the problem?
.
If Stevenson wants the fight, then a purse bid and Kovalev being a mandatory to his WBC belt (essentially forcing him) shouldn't be a issue. Agree to fight Kovalev and you will get your wish

[REMOVE SHARK 55]

I favour Kovalev over Adonis but what is Duva playing at. Kov definitely isn't ducking Adonis however Duva is most definitely ducking Haymon. She/Main Events lobbied the WBC for so long just to pull out?

[jjsmyth87]

It was ridiculous for duva for demanding a purse bid in the first place jf she knew kovalev was signed to HBO. Which means the only way for the fight to go down is if Stevenson fights on HBO which he can. So if Stevenson doesn't fight kovalev him and haymon get the blame. Diva is absolutely right about stevensons diminishing popularity. Almost nobody watches his fights yet he still headlines cards.

[SkillspayBills]

LMAO. I blame one group and one group only. HBO. They are the reason this fight isn't happening, simple as that.

[Godsfly]

Just make this **** happen. Let Krusher Krush Adonis and get this over with already.



Come on. It's been way too long.

you had a point in other threads about this fight but in this thread this is all on team kovalev..........

and this is my expression to your post in this thread

[Godsfly]
