    Package bringing Ward on board with a few dates for Roc Nation (and Espinoza holding his nose to work with Top Rank when Stevenson is ready to headline his own show) and you've got the makings of a deal.
    Read it and weep bitter tears all you haters.

        Conelo has fought the likes of

        Mayweather
        Trout
        Cotto
        Lara
        Kirkland
        Chavez Jr
        GGG (in September)

        Andonis ducked

          That why he ducked and moved to another net work to avoid kolv?

          Didn't fight pascal Hopkins joe smith jumped networks to avoid kolv? Doesn't want to fight Alvarez

            ggg was around 5 years ago..who tf was he fighting?
            1.alvarez just said in november/dec of 2016 that his team told him dont for adonis and he took step aside money bc he elected to fight bute
            2. pascal just admitted taht stevenson made him numerous offers that he turned down to fight kov
            3. stevenson right after pascal admitted that that bhop did the samething
            4. kovalev ducked 2 purse bids
            5. joe smith just rejected the fight with adonis..

            so how are u even talking nonsense

              The Kovalev offer wasn't good enough. And if Duva was a real promoter she would have helped Haymon squeeze more money out of HBO, instead of playing it safe. And Hopkins is the reason why Stevenson left HBO in the first place. He was the one who ducked Stevenson for less money too.

                u think he wanted to lose again and be out of a career at only 34?

                u act like the man lives in a damn wheel chair..he's a fighter been one his whole life...if he lives and sleeps boxing there is nothing to say that his career is over now..

                u give fonfara credit bc dawson was looking great AGAIN..AND HE STAYED THE COURSE AND GOT HIM OUT OF THERE...dawson was sharp af..it's simple as that..2 ppl have told your hard headed arse
                Dawson was close to hof status?

                He had some pretty good wins against stiff competition, but his reign was too short to be considered hof.

                Hasn't done anything note worthy since Hopkins and that was 5 years ago. Great talent, but he didn't win when he really needed to.

                  he was a 3 time world champ.. a total of about 8 title defenses..fought the best of the best a p4p talent at his time with a wins over tarver and bhop...mix in glen johnson and tomas ad he has a pretty good res...yes he was very close..if he doesnt go to 168 he may have reigned much longer and avenged the loss to pascal..

                  hell he still may get in..it's not to late

                    also when he beat tarver he basically unified when he beat tarver without losing the wbc in the ring

                      When Hopkins saw Superman's cape around the corner, he felt what it feels to be at the end of a loop.
                      So did Kovalev at the bid.
