Stevenson beats Beterbiev.

[GhostofDempsey]

Duva won the purse bid for the Stevenson fight then ran away from it.

Lie to yourself all you want,Kovalev's team killed that fight.

Stevenson has more punchers on his resume
Kovalev isn't allowed near a puncher.

Nice try. Kovalev was bound by contract to HBO. If they lost a purse big the fight went to SHO, where Stevenson conveniently ran to after a handshake deal to fight Kovalev. Don't think for a minute he didn't know what he was doing by escaping to SHO and holding the belt captive.

I agree, based on what we've seen so far of Beterbiev. He'd get walloped by the left hand. Although, it's really a fight of the unknowns since Beterbiev hasn't fought anyone (yes, not his fault, I'm not dis*****g that) and Superduck hasn't fought anyone worth a damn in years.

All we know for sure is someone gets laid out.

If memory serves me, Haymon has them both, there's a good chance we'll see them lock horns... Either way, Haymon walks out with the Champ, young or old...

It's great that you think Stevenson is a sure winner. Fights have to be won in the ring and not just in the imagination of a fighter's fan.

This fight is about as likely as rocky Marciano fighting Apollo Creed.

You know that's not true.

That's like saying Jacobs was bound by contract to showtime.

Jacobs wanted the fight on HBO and got it.....

Kovalev COULD have done the same thing....the opportunity was there.

Stevenson went to Showtime because HBO is a sinking ship and the MONEY is BETTER.

He's a smarter businessman than Kovalev

$$$ > Handshake deals.



Sergey isn't allowed to fight punchers....check his resume

Compare the KO% of their opponents.

I dare you.

When it comes to fighting punchers....Kovalev has been on cruise control since the Darnell Boone fight.

And Boone isn't really a puncher.

Duva didn't want to jeopardize their relationship with HBO, that's what it came down to. Everyone knows Kovalev would have pounded Stevenson into submission, even Adonis knows this. He is an overrated clown. His next fight is a rematch with Fonfara who got KO'd by Joe Smith. Kovalev is fighting an elite P4P in a rematch. What makes you think he is afraid of Stevenson if he took a fight with Ward? Please.

Stevenson ran off to Showtime because of the money. The fight would've been much easier to make then.
