Promoter Yvon Michel discusses Stevenson-Kovalev saga:
"I believe that fight will happen," Michel said. "I don’t believe it will be as soon as we thought. We thought it was going to be early fall. It might be early 2016 but the move they have done will delay it for sure.
"Adonis wants to fight him. We have to find some compromise somewhere; we're willing to do some. We're willing to negotiate with Kathy Duva and hopefully we find a solution down the road.
"I believe Stevenson-Kovalev is the best fight we can see in boxing besides a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight. Two huge punchers, they are antagonistic to each other. I think it's probably the most anticipated fight in the light heavyweight division since Spinks-Qawi in the early 1980s. The fight has to happen; it's a huge, huge fight. Hopefully we'll find a way that everybody will co-operate and do it."
