Comments Thread For: Adonis Stevenson: I Want To Be Undisputed Champion

Forget about the purse bid. Let's go back to when the fight was in Adonis's lap. He didn't take it, instead he ran to Haymon and Showtime. The purse bid was Haymon's checkmate and the only thing Adonis can use to save face. He ducked the HBO fight before the BS.

Pretty sure the 6m for Kov vs Pascal is far more than any Pbc purse yet. Open market is not a possibility, HBO is. It's Stevenson's decision, but we all know what his preference is, lesser purses for zero risk

No matter how much you may dislike him Stevenson is right, and a fight between the two on Canadian ppv brings in faarrrr more money than HBO. Especially with Adonis name on the bill.

Kovalev really only has the belts he got from Hopkins as ammo. Stevenson is the money, no way around it. He is also the name and has arguably the better resume.

if it was, then why was GYM fully ready to win the wbc purse and pay both boxers for showtime/pbc, and ME pulled out instead?

Can we just get a purse bid and get this fight made.

HBO had the rights to match the stevenson offer that showtime made, why didn't they? and when HBO tried to spin it, GYM exposed those emails.

both of these sides are playing politics, its gonna be interesting in 2016 to see who ends up caving in, duva and haymon are on a collision course unless kovalev loses or goes up in weight, haymon has too many guys spread around the LHW division, stevenson, rodriguez, browne, alvarez, beterbiev, fonfara even bummass chavez jr.

Sure, the Canadian Ppv can be very lucrative for big fights vs big names, and absolute **** for the scrubs Stevenson's been fighting. His choice

hopkins ducks him kovalev ducks him and we blame him for fighting top ten guys? too bad he's not ggg he'd be number 1 on the p4p list...fonfara beats hopkins and pascal imo

suhtosky ko'd kovalevs last opponent in 2 rounds

Because he signed with Haymon. HBO doesn't deal with his fighters.
