Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: Stevenson Has To "Ask Haymon" if He Can Fight

[My Low Place]

Ward takes his left hand away easy peasy. I see absolutely no way that Stevenson beats Ward unless Ward falls asleep in the ring. Once Ward gets inside, Stevenson is going to be like a fish out of water.

He obviously has a better chance of beating Kovalev for the simple reason that Kovalev is so aggresive, but it is still easy work imo. So yes Stevenson possibly being the biggest puncher south of heavyweight, he can put either to sleep, but that is a slim chance.

with a 6 inch reach advan on ward u prove first that he can take the left hand or long right jab away

the rest is for the bold

that's false..ward isnt strong enough..and see the fonfara and thomas williams jr fight....i bet you thomas williams jr would give andre ward all kinda hell on the inside..
dont go by names..go by skillsets..
i know ward is the better fighter but williams his a big lwh with a massive punch and aggression on the inside..ward wouldnt dare go on the inside wth him like stevenson did1!

holy crud why does anyone still even talk about stevenson?

he isn't even a has-been, he's a never-was

yea forget about the man that possibly has the knock out of the year and 2 belts in a deep division...WAT A BOXING FAN YOU ARE..if that is all u had to say u could have stayed tf off the link

A deep division he's never participated in, just fought in some separate sideshow league while everything happened without him. He is a nobody.

I have an image of a less than pleased Kovalev, wearing his post-fight baseball cap, pacing round the ring and shaking his head after the scores are called. Assuming this vision is a genuine prohecy and not some marijuana induced nonsense, it would lead me to believe that Ward wins by a somewhat controversial decision, possibly a split or majority decision.

This will be Ward's 3rd fight of his HBO 3 fight deal so if he wins there shouldn't be any problem getting the Stevenson fight. Ward won't have any network obligations.

u just lied and u type mf's make me sick...hbo denied to work with showtime who was willing to do a joint ppv...

real fans want these networks to work together..

So why did Stevenson end up turning down that last offer from Duva, which his own promter said was "very fair"?

Superduck doesn't have an exclusivity deal with ST, and they don't screen all his fights, but when it comes to Kovalev, ST gotta get screening rights, or no deal. He knows HBO won't give permission for a joint screening, and he uses that to duck the fight.

77 in reach vs 72 inch reach says kovalev would get fugged up

kovalev is in the upright position, lunges frequently...laaaawwwwd he would got his ass fugged up!!

Stevenson would have fought him with one punch for as long as it lasted..that 40 year old his struck fear in kov's, hbo's, and duva's heart

exactly..... Hbo and boxing writers have been confusing dumb boxing fan boys with propaganda as always.... If stevenson had ducked the purse bid against kkovalev they would start calling him a monkey like kkkovalev did....

dude has the 2nd or 3rd best resume in the division
ducked by kov, pascal overpriced himelf, bhop did as well, and now ward is making excuses to not even negotiate..

u should be smacked for your ignorance..im tired of ppl like u getting away with foolishness

[Cinci Champ]

i still think the blame is mutual for kov and stevenson

facts..he'll sign an extensions and get saved by "we dont want with showtime" statements from hbo...and fans will likely say "yea they shouldnt have to work with ppl in boxing" lol

or mabye the wont ward is black they might not feel the need to do the majority complexion protection ****....
