Comments Thread For: Kovalev, Duva Wait on Stevenson's Decision For June Bout

[goldenbear]

If No Purse Bid it's all talk

Purse bid is the real issue since Kovalev is signed to HBO. So any talk of not allowing a purse bid is all talk unless Duva side is willing to do 60-70% purse in favor of Stevenson to offset anything he could have lost in open purse bid.

Why is Duva trying to negotiate through the press?

[barks62]

When Stevenson left HBO, he signed with Showtime (and Al Haymon). I don't remember Stevenson fighting in a 'PBC' card.

I think he fought twice on PBC. Vs. Sakio Bika and Tommy Karpency. The Bika fight was one of the first PBC fights on CBS I think.

... Right: Bika was PBC on CBS and Karpency was PBC on Spike TV...

Therefore, technically speaking, they could make Stevenson vs Kovalev a PBC card on HBO, right?

The purse bid was Stevenson's way of backing out of the fight.

That makes ZERO sense????

[Shadoww702]

i mean really does ANYBODY still believe her after the stunt they pulled of backin' out of the PURSE BID?

Nope! Everyone thought Adonis was ducking until then. Duva wasted a ton of ppl time and $$$$ on that farce AND she's the one who ASKED for it!!!


"Then Duva announced that she would not participate in the bidding process, which came as a surprise considering how much she dogged Stevenson for supposedly avoiding the fight.

Duva, the one who initially suggested that the WBC make Kovalev the mandatory at the organization's annual convention"

"Sanctioning bodies do not rank other organizations' titleholders, but WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman said he wanted to see the fight happen for the good of boxing and made the move, which was music to Kovalev's ears because he has been chasing Stevenson for more than a year"

Picking out one aspect and failing to address the overall point is a female trait. It's called hysteria. It is not about Floyd but we would be politically correct to not include him into the point we were making.

He is at the top of the Al Haymon mountain of duckers/cherry pickers and "smart businessmen".

you committed the worst sin possible in the universe.... you made 2 micro aggressions towards the sainted negro. he must now seek a safe place

Why is Duva trying to negotiate through the press?

Because she knows the fight isn't happening and she is trying to get some positive press for her fighter and more negative press for PBC.

I don't think she's too busy these days. She has maybe 2-3 fighters of note.
