Stevenson's team asked for an immediate purse bid, and wouldn't negotiate after Duva told them she couldn't take part in one. They didn't want the fight.
The same people who were spouting off back then about purse bids being the best way to get the best deal for both men cried "duck" when Loeffler asked for an immediate bid for GGG/Jacobs.Last edited by kafkod; 01-05-2017, 04:00 PM.Comment

Of course they wanted the fight. They did that so they could control the venue and date by winning the purse bid. They knew they had more resources. Duva just miscalculated and didn't have the Russian money like she said.Stevenson's team asked for an immediate purse bid, and wouldn't negotiate after Duva told them she couldn't take part in one.

Fury entered the ring alone. He didn't have a couple of bodyguards with him, like Stevenson had when he stepped up to Kovalev. Wilder and Fury want to fight each other, so it made sense for Wilder to take Fury on. It will help sell the fight when/if it happens.
Kovalev knows he and Stevenson are never going to fight each other, so he gave Superduck the finger and turned his back to show his contempt.Last edited by kafkod; 01-05-2017, 04:18 PM.Comment

Mmmm ... maybe. But I'm still insisting that nobody in their right mind would ask for a mandatory position unless they wanted to fight.Comment

the real plan has been leaked- continue to fight bums whilst saying you are being avoided by the other fighters. The same as the last few years.Comment

I'll give credit where credit is due: Politics have certainly played *some* part in Adonis' fight history.
That being said, he's fought 3 times in 24 months. You're right that Adonis still has his WBC strap. I bet, though, that B Hop and Kov would still have their straps had they fought Bika, Karpency, and Williams their past 3 fights.Comment
