Comments Thread For: Joe Smith Promoter: Adonis Stevenson Has Run Cold, Fight a No-Go!

[bambam182]

How is a Kovalev - Stevenson fight going to get made if Stevenson won't even get in the ring with Joe Smith, the construction worker?

kovalev fights for free? for free.99! ROFL.

I wanna hear the other side of the story before I just blame Adonis for the fight not happening. It's gotta be more to it but if this is true and Adonis gives a lame excuse this will look weak on his part. I honestly think he can beat Joe Smith no reason to duck him unless he has a better pay day. Hopefully Ward or Kovalev.

Stevenson can't do no wrong in this dude's eyes.

And after they robbed Fonfara I wouldn't go to Canada either.

wow robbed fonfara??
c'mon to the light brother..just admit u're insane

of course he would..he likely doesnt know all of the business about insurance that new york just put in...he said he would fight ward down under as well...hell he's an immigrant where he is...he's never fought at home.. HAITI

FIGHTERS DONT KNOW WT PROMOTERS ARE DOING BEHIND DOORS UNTIL PROMOTER TELL THEM..if the deal cant be worked out question both sides...

all i've seen is joe say NY and NY only...TBV asked him about Canada and he didnt like that option..he went back and said how much of a draw he is in NY...now some guy is saying he wants 50-50....that's him duck

I don't think there's anybody in boxing right now that I want to see succeed more than Smith. The guy is a fun fighter who's worked hard for everything he's achieved. Having said that I think Stevenson is a step too high and the fact that he won't take this is ***** disgusting.

reasonable...but if u read the comment and listen to smith interviews..he's basically only wanting the fight in NY...and now some guys says sources tell him that he wants 50-50....that just isnt smart...that says he knows he can get ktfo and needs to be paid

can u send links? im just upset with this whole thing..and if this is true joe is a true coward to me now.

Nah sorry. It was a radio interview with Réjean Tremblay, a columnist who is well plugged into the MTL boxing scene.

Smith, who has literally nothing to lose, is somehow at fault in all of this.

getting knocked out aint fun..and if he wont travel he's fulla ****..that is a lineal title vs a 39 year old..u go for it..

if u've heard him talk he's only wanted it in NY...it cannot be there and make full profit due to promo issues.

Show me proof, buddy. I posted a link that it was Stevenson who offered to fight in NY. Gimme proof of Smith saying he ONLY wants it in NY.

As if getting KO'ed is a guarantee. Same way Stevenson KO'ed Fonfara?
