Take someone like Curtis Stevens for example. He's been stopped by a guy named Marcos Primera who took the fight on zero days notice and didn't even train. He was 19-15. He dropped Stevens before stopping him while he was out on his feet.
Then you have Jesse Brinkley who made Stevens take a knee in the 6th round and was saved by the bell. Then Brinkley had Stevens out on his feet in the 12 round and was once again saved by the bell.
Here's where it gets really weird. You have a guy like N'dam who can't bust a g****, but also dropped and almost stopped Curtis Stevens.
Stevens has been dropped at least 4 times not even counting GGG.
Based off the above facts, GGG should've put Stevens out cold, but he didn't. He got a corner stoppage. If you ask me, Stevens was in worst physical condition against Brinkley than GGG. It's debatable.
But the point is, is you take a guy like Jacobs who got stopped by Pirog. No shame there. Then he got a flash knockdown against Mora and people complain about his chin.
But Curtis Stevens was actually stopped by a guy with a worse KO% than Mora on zero days notice and no one complained about his chin leading into that fight. More importantly, GGG didn't knock Stevens out cold. Why?
