Comments Thread For: Adonis Stevenson: Pascal Will Have To Earn His Shot

[ironmike2012]

Biggest duck in boxing.
Pascal has to earn a shot? Pascal is more deserving than anyone he has fought. Can't believe anyone likes or supports such a worthless champ.
Hope his cherry picking blows up in his face, I won't watch until he fights a legit opponent. Kov, Beterbiev, Pascal or Fonfara rematch.

I'm pretty sure a win over Boone didn't catapult Stevenson to #1 contender to fight Dawson when all his previous fights were at Super Middleweight.

You gotta wonder how much longer Haymon is going to spend millions to keep ****heels like stevenson and quillin afloat, whats the endgame, why exhaust the resources? chumps like this only make the weak product haymon and co. are trying to sell people look even weaker.

Link? Just kidding, I know you don't have one and are making **** up.

Kovalev and Pascal split 6m, and Pascal wasn't even bringing a belt much less lineal. Don't worry, it'd be career high purse for Stevenson. But looks like he prefers fighting no risk bums for much less money.

when stevenson was with hbo a few years back neither guy was a star but hbo offered only 1 million for the fight between teh 2 best lhw...that is unacceptable so haymon stepped in and poached stevenson...are u new to boxing?

pascal had the fight and he picked kovalev instead of waiting on the wbc to force it...let blame stevenson for pascals ppl not wantign to take antoher fight in between that

No link, figured. Go on, keep making **** up and justifying Stevensons pathetic mismatches. And its not only Kovalev, he weaseled out of every quality fight available, and is doing it again lol

[about.thousands]

The Kovalev fight was the WBC eliminator for Kovalev only. Pascal refused the WBC eliminator clause

something u wont find links on when article are written about these 2 for over a year now..u have to remember them and keep them relevant.. stevenson promoter told him to take the hbo money and then haymon came in and swooped stevenson for more money..hbo budget has been cut the last 2 years..all they were offering was peanuts for 2 murderous punchers...wont cut it

but how is he weaseling out and he still has his belt? he can say no to every offer and the purse bid gives him 75-25 split..IT HIS RIGHT AS THE CHAMP..went in for a purse bid and pulled out..haymon putting up 8 million gives him 25% of that...pascal wanted a 50-50 fight stevenson would make more is he waited on the purse bid or if pascal offerd 60-40 he might have got the fight...
HE WAS USING MEDIA PRESSURE TO NEGOTIATE...ALL IT DID WAS GET HIM KO'D

PASCAL WAS THE WBC NUMBER 1 BEFORE KOVALEV KO'D HIM...well he was after kovalev but since kovalev ended up taking the fight he would have been the guy right in the rankings to be ordered..he took a fight with kovalev for 3 million bc adonis wasnted his 75% split as the champ..
wbc purse bids give champs 75%

8 million put up by haymon for kovsteveson would still have kovalev sitting pretty and they would have likely gave him more than 75% bc it is up to the wbc wat the ratio is

Pascal talked **** and got KO. He goes to the back of the line. I don't care for Adonis that much but he's right this time.
