Comments Thread For: Kovalev's Promoter Mocks Stevenson On Social Media

[sicko]

Like I said during the entire Mayweather vs Pacquiao BS...BOTH SIDES ARE FULL OF ****!

If they truly wanted to fight it can be done but all I'm seeing is both sides trying to look good in the boxing media without actually having to fight.

[Larry the boss]

Duva just showed how Haymon could make the fight. He has to offer it to HBO, if HBO declines he's free to move it anywhere he wants. Balls in their court.

They went to purse bid and they walked man,all of this is just bull**** and talking

Eventhough the clip is nearly as odd as my avatar i believe kovalev has given us no reason not to believe him. Stevenson avoided pascal and hopkins and he was the one that walked away from hbo and avoided kovalev for a long time. Why would kovalev avoid the fight? Haymon only puts his fighters against his own.

[Barcham]

This is ****** since ya'll called for a purse bid and walked away from it...and now Stevenson is demanding the fight again..just make this **** happen or shut up

Once again, revisionist history from Larry. ME did not ask for the purse bid, Yvon Michel did. We all know the reason why. Pointless to go over the points that you are well aware of and pretend did not exist.

[jqSide]

Waste of time talking about this fight. Isn't it already obvious Stevenson don't want it?

Can't they ask him directly how much he really wants to make the fight happen?

Stevenson seems to show no intention of taking anymore tough fights, living off a KO victory over a damaged Chad Dawson from 3 years ago.

Per N.Duva on twitter, when ME got Kovalev the purse bid against Stevenson, their plan was to take the Mohammedi fight first which would allow them an out with HBO in case Haymon won the purse bid and HBO could've turned down the fight due to it being higher than they were willing to pay allowing Haymon to put it on Showtime or PBC. That's the reason GYM moved up the purse bid date in order to either force ME to drop out of the purse bid or go into it knowing the could easily outbid anything HBO would offer, move the fight off HBO forcing Kovalev to then decline.

@snboxing Why do you think they pushed up the date of the purse bid while both fighters had upcoming bouts and refused to negotiate?

@snboxing First, we asked to be made the WBC mandatory after the IBF mandatory. Wouldn***39;t have been an issue then.

— Nicole Duva (@nicoleduva) September 22, 2015

@snboxing No, but if the winner agreed to offer the fight to HBO on the winning terms, HBO either would***39;ve had to pay it or let it go.

@snboxing Not in July! In April. HBO***39;s matching right would***39;ve been exhausted with the Mohammedi fight.

@snboxing We tried to make the fight. They had the opportunity to bid networks against each other and didn***39;t take it.

— Nicole Duva (@nicoleduva) September 22, 2015

@snboxing Yes, to get out of doing the fight. That is my point.

— Nicole Duva (@nicoleduva) September 22, 2015

@snboxing No, it really isn***39;t. They knew if they moved up the date it would get them out of the fight. It worked.

We don't believe you we need more people

[Pigeons]

Main Events is just trolling. They know they have the sheep on their side and the sheep will eat up anything Duva feeds them.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

So much sense being made by Duva right now and the haters still are like huh or nah!

Stevenson push up the purse bid date why?

[Fetta]

They "ducked" each other.

Unlike Ward/GGG this fight is ready now.

[BattleAxePurist]

They "ducked" each other.

Unlike Ward/GGG this fight is ready now.

Given the politics I'm kind of ehhh right now

Kovalev/Ward- Stevenson/Beterbiev sound better right now
