Comments Thread For: Edwin Rodriguez Ready: I Want Adonis Stevenson Next

Why doesn't he try to avenge his loss to Ward instead?

It's called being resolved to the fact that the other mans the better man . That fight wasn't even close as Rod lost every round and was very close to getting KO'd . So I doubt if anyone wants to see it again

Kovalev is an elevated trash, and believe it or not, he duck Stevenson so hard, they bring up Ward name to patch the hole.

What?, suddently Kove doesn't want the biggest belt nor the lineal Champion recognition; Come on... So close to a big deal, just released from an HBO exclusivity contract.
1) 03/14/2015 Duva says Kovalev terminated his contract after the Jean Pascal fight.
2) 04/17/2015 Duva says Kovalev just sign a new contract, when the WBC ordered the purse bid.
3) 05/13/2015 Duva says on twitter, Kovalev never re-sign any contract, but Kovalev was still under an exclusivity arrangement with HBO.
4) 05/18/2015 Duva says Kovalev just sign up a new contract with HBO which garanty him 1 fight each 3 months.
Kathy Duva is just a liar, a cheap poker face bluffer. Look, team Kove/Duva build up Kovalev's reputation by making the audience believe Stevenson was running away from him, when if FACTS, they never wanted any part of a pissed off Stevenson, which they used to maximize Kovalev reputation for almost 2 years. An angry Stevenson would make Kovalev swallow his own teeth.

It'll possibly look like the Bika fight just Edwin is younger so he would have more of a workrate doubt he has as good of a chin.

That probably makes it pretty entertaining though. I think the Fonfarra fight is better, but I think they can let that simmer for a bit before going back there because not like that fight would be much bigger than a Rodriguez encounter for now.
