Comments Thread For: Kovalev: Stevenson Fights Uber Drivers, Guys He Knows He Can Beat

[jonnyc420]

STEVENSON WAS WILLING TO TAKE THE CHANCE BEFORE THE PURSE BID...hbo let a 300k money gap push him to showtime..i have proof of this from boxingscene butu'll keep lying like stevenson just ran...or u'll say idc bc u're a hate that isnt right.

He did run dont matter the money. Always the excuse and it's a tired one. He isnt worth the money he has been asking for especially now with his soft touch fights HBO was wise to it. The guy is a joke accept it. Only Haymon and Showtime would be dumb enough to agree to pay him for a rematch of a fight he clearly won first time around. What a joke.

DEAR KOVALEV and team members,

u ducked 2 purse bids that would have got you adonis. YOU CAN NOW STFU.

2NDLY...your best win is ISAAC FUGGIN CHILEMBA...
bellew beat chilemba right? had 2 close fights...DO YOU MF'ERS KNOW WAT ADONIS DID TO BELLEW?? of course you do...THAT'S WHY YOU PATHETIC FUCS DUCKED HIM LIKE I MENTIONED BEFORE...PUNKS

Don't be a cheerleader it's not cool. He has Hopkins pascal and cleverly on his record how is chilemba his best win? dont rewrite history to suit your agenda.

[Fabes88]

lol pascal better than chilemba?? did you not see chilemba do better than pascal vs kovalev and alvarez?? shut you casual arse up

bhop was 50 and washed..chilemba as the point and time was a beter figher...

cleverly and chilemba are nearly equal seeing that both are bellew opponents and they both have very close fights and loses to him..

SEE HOW IT WORKS..I DONT PLAY THE NAME GAME BOY

He wasn't washed. He just unified the division and was on a good streak but yeah rewrite history to suit your agenda. Pascal is better than chilemba don't be silly. Put your Pom Poms down and act like a boxing fan and not a Stevenson cheerleader

Rumor has it that fonfara wasn't focused because he spent hours before the fight picking fans up at their hotels and dropping them off at the arena in his Uber cab.

If this article is based on the FightHype phone interview posted today, then this is exactly why I hate when Klimas translates stuff Kovalev says, because he himself is not fluent in English.
What Kovalev said in Russian about Fonfara was not at all that he was an Uber driver. He said that Fonfara was already beat up by Stevenson in their first fight, and so he was already damaged goods.
Kovalev called Fonfara a "shot down pilot", and Stevenson was beating up on a pilot that had crashed. It is a Russian expression and Klimas sucks in English so he said Uber driver. But those are not Kovalev's words, and being Russian it pisses me off because most of the articles of what Kovalev said are based on translations, and not his actual words.

That sounds more right. These translators need translators

I don't even think Kovlov knows W TF ubber means??

[GMAN SUPREME]

kovalev is right. chickenson is still a joke.

[ray moe]

Kovalev is right, but I dont think that he is the right person to point that fact out. I dont think that pascal (yes, this one who blatantly had to rob gonzález in order to have his rematch with kovalev) is a very good oposition neither. Mohamedi?caparello? sillah? 90 yo bernard hopkins? they look like actual uber driver names to me, tbh.

Fonfara is not much worse than the average kovalev's victories, tbh.

Please beat Ward, Stevenson-Kovalev would be a modern Hearns- Hagler. For all the hate on here it's worth pointing out that you still watch and comment on everything Stevenson. Kovalev-Stevenson is the most compelling possible fight in boxing.
