I've only seen Monaghan once, and it was his last fight. He was outboxed and lost against a dude that had 10+ losses, yet obviously gifted the win.

After that pathetic perfomance, this dude shouldn't even be allowed to look at the title. But here we are. Stevenson is a joke, taking a dude like this next.

Beterbiev didn't want a freebie...so he's fighting Enrico Koelling????

Let Beterbiev main event this, Superwoman isn't relevant anymore. Nobody cares about the paper chump.

Classic example of two guys - Stevenson and Beterbiev - who should be fighting each other instead of beating up a couple of nobodies.

He accepted the IBF's eliminator invitation after Barrera pulled out, so he's forced to fight him.

Monaghan is a limited fighter but a local draw. Top Rank used him all the time on undercards in NY to draw in a crowd, so no coincidence this was going to be held in NYC. Stevenson probably figures Sean is a low-risk high-reward fight.

Yvon Michel is supposed to be Stevenson's promoter. Promoters don't wait to learn the details (time & place) of an event from a fighter's manager. It's completely backwards. You could almost assume that Haymon is the promoter and Yvon Michel is just the lowly manager, but that can't be true because PBC would NEVER violate "the Muhammad Ali act", and honorable men like Yvon Michel and Lou Dibella would NEVER help them do so. lol
