    The sad part isn't that Stevenson has refused to fight top opponents or held that belt hostage for so long -- it's that he's made such a profitable living off of it. For some reason those Quebec fans will pay to watch their boxers punch bales of hay.

      No Lance screwed up, Stevenson fights the January winner of Alvarez/Bute in April, then has to face Gvozdyk after. He's gone so long without making a mando, I think they're doing like the WBO to BJS and making him do back to back. Stevenson's milked that title way too long.

        That's great news. Been wanting to see gvozdyk in with someone credible.

          He will retire or vacate by then imo

            The WBC has always been bull**** about mandatories. Mayweather fought like one mandatory in all his years holding that belt. Honestly, the IBF might be the only sanctioning organization that truly does anything about mandatory defenses.

              Hope as you wish, Stevenson has the will to win. At the end, when he'll become the Undisputed Champion, you'll be the first to flip side, and cheers for Stevenson. You'll see...
