Where do people get this idea that Adonis Stevenson ducked Kovalev from?

[Chollo Vista]

Just because he opted to take the Showtime deal doesn't mean he wasn't being offered a fair price to fight Kovalev. Seems like he just wanted more money for easier fights, which I guess is normal these days for boxing...

Didn't even read the link because I know what happen

Why didn't HBO match the Showtime offer when Stevenson was for the fight instead of being so cheap?

You either came in here talking about a topic you had no clue about or straight up lied. Either one.

aren't you the same guy that has no problem with GGG refusing a 10 million dollar purse to fight Canelo but you have a problem with Stevenson getting a better deal financially with a different network? His deal didn't prevent a fight either, they had agreed to do a purse bid but Kovalev and K2 decided against it. Where's the logic bro?

As to why HBO didn't match the offer.. I don't know, wasn't in the budget? He should've taken the fight anyway. Admit he wanted easier fights for more money.

No, because you just made that up.

I've said that if Golovkin really wants the fight that badly he should take what's offered as its way more than he'll get anywhere else. At the very most, maybe his team can negotiate it up to another 2 million but he has to face the fact that Canelo is the bigger draw. I'll see if I can dig up the post....

Put the 40 down, kid.

At least you admitted to not knowing WTF you were talking about so you decided to change the subject. That's a start.

Easier fights for more money? You mean like when Duva pulled out of the purse bid and walked away?

"Duck" is a word that is thrown around to loosely around here.

For what ever reason a fighter don't fight another even if justified it is a duck for the haters.

Ain't none. That's the problem

ok, cool. You have a problem with Stevenson signing a better fight deal though? What's your take on the purse bid?
