Woul kovalev handle stevenson easier...

[jmrf4435]

Than he handled pascal? I think stevenson is an easier fight due to the risks he takes brawling (fonfara).?

Whtat say you?

And yes, ward beats stevenson by wide ud in a boring uneventful fight.

I don't know about that but I would definitely pick Kovalev to win by knockout.

[Redd Foxx]

No. Stevenson still throws when he's hurt. He doesn't shut-down as easily as Pascal. And, Stevenson has legit firepower. Pascal at one time was more technical but he's been awful for a while (he essentially lost the fight vs Gonzales, in between his Kov fights). Adonis is fading but would still put up a decent fight against Kovalev. I'm sure he's even stagger him at some point before eventually succumbing.

Stevenson is 40 years old, sat on the sidelines watching one the better LHW eras play out while he sat on twitter. ducked Hopkins, Pascal, Kovalev, Ward, etc. Doesn't have half the boxing skills of any of them and relies on physical power even though he's undersized for his division. I give him zero chance. He barely survived Fonfara who before that was some random warmup.

Why do people place so much importance on a lineal title? Cotto was lineal MW champion. Lineal titles are just as much of a joke as all the others.

Yup, Kovalev KO's him.

Stevenson would put Kovalev to sleep.

Duva agrees....she demanded a purse bid and bailed soon as she got it.

Did you see the way Kovalev bail on his own post fight interview?

He called Stevenson a chicken and then ran just like one.

He didn't duck anybody.

Duva demanded a purse bid then bailed on it....that's on her.

You're a fool if you think he ducked Pascal and Hopkins.

Why people overate that Bum Pascal so much? Which big fight has that guy actually won?

He lost to Froch, he lost to old man Hopkins, he lost to Kovalev twice?

Defaq is the big deal about him that bum?

Stevenson doesn't throw punches that stagger you...He puts you to sleep.

I see no signs of him slowing down.

No way in hell Kovalev takes this fight.

Kovalev was afraid to engage Ward and couldn't even KO him, he stands no chance against Explosiveson. Explosiveson is a better boxer, fast, more explosive, better inside game (without clinching), and has more power.

Kovalev's gets schooled and KO'd inside 6 rounds.
