OK, in other words, Stevenson will be fighting Alvarez in April...

I'd say that Black fighters, and I guess you can say it's because they are most associated with Al Haymon but perhaps not, duck more challenging fights than any other group in the recent history of boxing. Here are just a few examples:

1. Floyd never fought the biggest challenge to him at the time he was the biggest challenge: waited for Pac to be KO'd and turn 36, ducked Margo for Baldomir, ducked Winky Wright, ducked Triple G at 154, ducked Hatton and Cotto at 140;

2. Andre Ward, obviously ducked a Froch rematch in the U.K., ducked anyone at 175 although fights bums at 172 and gets his fights rejected by NSAC;

3. Rigo = ducks Loma by crying about a measly 4 pound step up;

4. Roy Jones ducked Michaelewski in his prime, fought nobodies at 175 for several years;

5. Crawford continues to fight bums;

6. Rid**** Bowe ducked Lennox Lewis to the point of throwing the title in the garbage can;

7. Laila Ali ducked ANYONE who was even close to a challenge and lost to Frazier's daughter aka a part-time boxer who worked in the legal field;

I could go on and on here...

Not to take away from the Black fighters who have shown a lot of heart and courage, for example:

1. Ali - greatest of all time
2. Holyfield
3. B-Hop
4. Shane Mosley

And obviously dozens and dozens more...

You're a freakin idiot.

Sounds fair enough, GYM saying they want to wait until after Kovalev beats Pascal in case there's an upset. So in two weeks we should hear Kovalev/Stevenson is official?

[BlackSoul]

kovalev will not be facin' Stevenson bc hbo n k2 wont let that happen.
the older stevenson gets the harder it will be for him to beat kov. if this was 2012 when he won the title from dawson i'd be more of a 70/30 lean towards stevenson BUT NOBODY knew who the hell kovalev was then so the fight wouldnt have the buildup it has now but a 38 year old stevenson is a tough task to beat a 31 year old kov.
but Ward will do it so i aint even trippin'

Man I thought nobody could top spoon in dumbness on nsb guess I was proven wrong

[KrusherStan]

So, if Kovalev wins, then Stevenson will prepare 5 months and still will get whooped. Now that Adonis is 38 looks like he will be fighting once a year.

im glad you're exposin' yourself for your tru nature i just wish the rest of these would come out and say what they feel like you did. bc most feel the same way you do but dont have heart to say it.
#1 mayweather didnt duck wright bc wright was a NATURAL 154lber, if pacq wouldve took the drug test they wouldve fought as freddie roach has come out and said it was THEIR fault the fight didnt happen then, he called out hatton and cotto at 140 fight didnt happen so he moved to 147 for the $ fights. if you wouldve said kostya tzu i would be more favorable to that.
#2 andre ward cleaned out 168 n is jumpin up to 175 n fought at a 172 cw body has to get acclimated to the weight. by the end of 2016 he will have conquered that division
#3 nobody beats rigo at 118, 122 or 126 the interview i seen that lomo said he turned down the fight bc of the $ offered for the rigondeaux fight
#4 is LAUGHABLE Roy Jones was at the top of the sport and was jumpin' up & down in weight from 154 all the way to heavyweight roy didnt fear any fighter and he's fought way better comp than michalewski who beat roys leftovers in montel griffin and richard hall and went 11 rounds with richard hall at 175 roy was a 154lber goin' up in weight and even went past 175 michalewski never ventured outside of 175 stop the bull****. on top of the fact that only diehard boxing fans knew who michalewski was roy AT THAT TIME wasnt gonna take that fight bc he wanted roy to come to germany and that wasnt gon happen bc he wasnt known AT ALL.
a much less marketable fighter wouldve punished michalewski at that time and that was Antonio Tarver wouldve went to germany bc he had no name and was chasin' roy bc tarver wasnt an A-side
#5 if provodnikov and herrerra and pacquiao wouldnt TURN DOWN FIGHTS crawford would drag them
#6 idk much about rid**** bowe to that extent to speak on that
#7 laila ali fought and crushed the person who KNOCKED OUT her closest competition ann wolfe and that was valerie mahfood

lastly black boxers make up over 70% of the worlds top 25 p4p calm down
marciano was a BUM
tony morrison was a bum with NO CHIN
ricky hatton got ko'd by mayweather and pacq wouldve lost to zab judah too
willie pep i dont know anythang about him but im pretty sure he NEVER fought ANYONE off the Black Murderers Row so he gets no credit
and **** who else do white fighters have to be proud of? rocky balboa was a FICTIONAL character that had the same life as Smokin' Joe Frazier
joe calzaghe came to the united snakes to fight an old ass roy jones NEVER fought roy in his prime and to this day i say B Hop was robbed he won that fight 8-4 and was robbed bc he said "no white fighter will ever beat me" watch the fight with NO SOUND and it becomes apparent. the BIAS hbo crew shapes the narrative
who else is there to talk about yall dont have many at all that competed on a WORLD LEVEL so its pointless to bring that up

[BlackSoul]

K2 doesn't even promote Kovalev lol

i meant main events
i always get them mixed up
