stevenson isn't even a top fighter

his biggest win was the same washed up chad dawson tommy karpency beat

lets stop pretending it would even be safe to let him fight kovalev

he turned down fights with hopkins, pascal and kovalev for a reason -- he's a sham with no chance against them

... (the "pimp" history apart) Stevenson was OK -- Steward taught him a lot, but he ran away from the 'initial' Kovalev fight plain and simple...

Sometimes it's good to bring back old postings, just because some of you have a tendancy to volontarily forget truth.

You, others and I, know how bad a liar Mama Duva is; With her «Negotiation» argument. Remember:
Adonis Stevenson accepted the offer of Showtime on 03/25/2014.
And Before Kovalev fought Agnew on 03/29/2015, Team Duva agree to sign Kovalev under his first deal with HBO. So in fact, Kovalev signed his deal with HBO (AFTER) Stevenson went to Showtime, I didn't say before, I said Kovalev signed AFTER.
So why 10 days after B-Hop won his second title against Shumenov, on 04/29/2014 Mama Duva decided to sued Showtime, Golden Boy & Al Haymon, which have no business with this non sign contract.
1) Because Kathy Duva conflict demonstration is ultimately blocking all her boxers to do any business with Al Haymon and Showtime.
2) Also to persuade HBO she was not lying when she told them the contract was already setup between Adonis Stevenson & Sergey Kovalev.
3) And most of all, to plot a settlement under table with Golden Boy for dropping this phony lawsuit in exchange of an unification bout between Hopkins and her protege Kovalev, instead of Stevenson.
This Lawsuit got dropped on 08/04/2014, one day after Hopkins and Kovalev reached an agreement to unify their titles. Golden Boy team weren't bright enough to realise this lawsuit was going nowhere, otherwise HBO would have backed up this phony complaint.

Kovalev had the WBO, which is not required to become Undisputed Champion, but Hopkins had the IBF & the WBA on the tip of his fingers. So Stevenson followed the titles after HBO failed to match Showtime financial offer. And DeLahoya's puppet Hopkins; crossed boat for less money leaving Stevenson's predestined belts to Kovalev. Which is the reason why Stevenson finds a higher interest in Kovalev now. Kovalev has gain more value & both became the keys for unlocking the Undisputed Champion title.
When PBC got launch, Stevenson had adjusted his contract with Showtime to have the freedom to present himself on any other networks, like most Haymon's boxers. A purse bid would have offered a minimum of 10 millions EASY for each boxers, instead of a low purse of 3.5 million each offered by HBO. But after Hopkins fight, Kovalev won 2 titles with a tight 650 000$ purse and no valuable fighter to fight in the near future. Meanwhile, big mouth Jean Pascal turned down his fight against Stevenson due his own rejection of being fairly paid at 30%, by turning towards Kovalev to the great joy of Witch Duva. So to avoid being stripped from his WBC Diamond belt by the WBC, and to maintain a higher value for his fight against Kovalev, Pascal, Greg Leon and Kathy Duva elaborated a scam to deceive the WBC so that they agree to keep the Diamond belt valid under one strict condition, the winner must become mandatory for the unification against Stevenson for a 50/50 split purse, if the negotiation goes to a purse bid.
Then, since Kathy Duva went to the WBC convention on 12/17/2014, asking the WBC to position Kovalev as mandatory to Stevenson, all the stars were perfectly aligned for an historical showdown to determine the undisputed king of this division. And lets see how this Witch reacted once she'd realise that Stevenson and Yvon Michel were more than happy to make that fight happen.
1) 03/14/2015 Duva says Kovalev just released from an HBO exclusivity contract after the Jean Pascal fight.
2) 04/17/2015 Duva says Kovalev just sign a new contract, when the WBC ordered the purse bid. (lies)
3) 05/13/2015 Duva says on twitter, Kovalev never re-sign any contract, but Kovalev was still under an exclusivity arrangement with HBO. (excuses)
4) 05/18/2015 Duva says Kovalev just sign up a new contract with HBO which garanty him 1 fight each 3 months.
Not to mention that team Kovalev also rejected the secondary WBC purse bid, on 05/29/2015.

I don't know how Kove fans can still convince themselves with all her cheating actions, thinking she really wanted to «Negotiate». She has what she determined was in the best interest of her company, which was HBO attention to reconsider Kovalev value, and re-signed him under a more lucrative TV contract. There was nothing to do with the matchup she required and declined because they failed to settle a «so called» friendly agreement, she naively thought Stevenson would've vacate his title or get stripped from it by refusing to fight Kovalev. It was a Bluff, like her bogus lawsuit.
Kathy Duva is a smart lawyer and a low class manipulative liar. Look, team Kove/Duva build up Kovalev's reputation by making the audience believe Stevenson was running away from him, when in facts, since Kovalev gained Hopkins belts, they no longer want any part of a pissed off Stevenson. Which they used to maximize Kovalev reputation for almost 2 years. An angry Stevenson would make Kovalev choke by swallowing his own mouthpiece.

Agreed Fuccing hate that **** duva
