Comments Thread For: Kovalev's Coach: Stevenson is a Better Fan Fight Over Andre Ward

[MDPopescu]

No he's not underrated... Emanuel Steward trained Stevenson for a good reason and the "master's hand" is manifest in Stevenson's defense...

People here (as elsewhere) are bashing the pimp because of his shameful past and because he blatantly ducked Kovalev in the first place.

Video: Adonis really scared to death about fighting Kovalev

(at 4:00 on the video): "… You step on the ring… the chances that you take… the health, you know… your life is on the line… so we just want to be compensated, you know…"

... meanwhile, the vid was deleted from Youtube...

So he's scared to death because he wants to be compensated properly?

By that same logic then Golovkin was scared to death of fighting Andre Ward then. Since he wouldn't fight him because it didn't make financial sense.

So you can't even read.

I agree. Ward has been overhyped by beating older European guys in their 30s on the decline...

He won't be able to clinch and impose his will on KOva and his chin is suspect.

That seems to be a popular rumor around here, why do you think his chin is suspect?

Of course Krusher Stevenson is the fan friendly fight. Ward is never exciting in the ring. Glad to see Kovalev krush both of these divas.

krusher vs superman is gonna be action-packed..ward is so far from a diva u need to reevaluate yoself..ward outboxes everyone in the division hands down.p4p the most well rounded fighter in the business..

dude i dont even know if u really watch boxing all that well..regardless of your uneducated opinion, Ward is one of the most complete fighters to come around in this era..he's beaten everyone they have put in front of him and welcomes all challengers..krusher and golovkin are the only interesting fights for him at the moment..everyone else gets destroyed in biblical fashion..

... Ward outboxes everyone in the division, hands down, with a specification: without even fighting any of them.

true! hes been out of the game because of handlers issues, but ward is still the most complete fighter in the biz..styles always make fights and i dont see anything that shows me that any of these guys will beat ward..and im a huge fan of golovkin and krusher..

I only know that Stevenson cannot wait another year if he really wants to fight Kovalev and that there will be solid gate money in Quebec.
Ward may wait even until 2017 and hope he doesn't have to fight Kovalev, in case Beterbiev decide to face the Russian.
But maybe I'm wrong.

kovalev vs beterbiev is the fight to see..thats what i would pay to watch!

Nah... I'll tell what you would need to see next... Ward vs Beterbiev (first); Ward vs Stevenson; Ward vs Kovalev... But you actually don't want them in this sequence... WHY? You only want them to take each other out and say: well, Ward would have beat them all... Right?
