i dont know if anyone has noticed but stevenson is not a draw like he used to be. his attendance and ratings have diminished over time. the jack fight had 4000 people only.
Eleider Alvarez vs Adonis Stevenson in Canada
Collapse
-
he proved he was always the best by sitting on the sidelines without fighting a soul for 5 years while the best fought each other and eventually lost? really strange way of looking at sports. only in boxing does it work this way. you can't not play and win the super bowl but in boxing if you have crazy fans anything is possible.
we owned them....tribalism.
And as impressive as that run was, Adonis being the true lineal champion went for it again by defending his LHW crown FOR THE NINTH TIME against the former WBC Supermiddle-Weight champion Badou Jack ; who ALSO became the WBA 'Regular' Champion at 175! BUT WAIT!!! the man is not done yet?! Is Adonis taking on the must avoided 175 pounder -- the man that the new WBO champion Eleider Alvarez ducked?! the 'Nail' Oleksandr Gvozdyk?! YES ITS TRUE.
How can anyone deny Adonis any respect is beyond my comprehension. You may have success fooling the casuals around here but some of us know the truth about this mans credentials and how 'Superman' Stevenson has been underappreciated, underrated and avoided.Last edited by 1hourRun; 08-05-2018, 10:17 AM.Comment

In the past five years Adonis 'Superman' Stevenson fought a prime : former WBC cruiserweight champion Tony Bellew, former WBC middleweight champion Sakio Bika, top ten LHW Tommy Karpency ; another top ten Thomas Williams Jr., and again Andrzej Fonfara who was as high as the #2. LHW in the world in 2016! Stevenson managed somehow to hold on to his world title despite the odds ;

To add context to the numbers: Adonis Stevenson just fought Badou Jack current #2. at LHW after testing Adonis ; this is a man that arguably should of been lineal-unified @ 168 when he faced the #1. Supermiddleweight at the time ( James Degale ) and after that went up to LHW and won a title ( WBA ) off of another champion Nathan Cleverly. FACTS.Comment

Chickenson ducked this man for 5 years. why should Alvarez even entertain this clown?
Adonis has big problems to clear up with Badou Jack first. he looked like washed up dog sh-t in that fight.
Alvarez should focus on the Bivol showdown. a bigger and better opponent.Comment

Eleider dont want none of 'Superman' Adonis Stevenson, I think Alvarez would rematch Jean Pascal before he steps up to the LINEAL TRUE LHW CHAMPION.
These haters denied Adonis his due respect, now I think its clear after Kovalev got spanked ( AGAIN ) that the 175 class always belonged to Stevenson.
Team 'Superman' got the last laugh, we owned them.
Chickenson looked like hot dog sh-t against Badou Jack. why should Alvarez even entertain that coward after being ducked for 5 years?
Adonis has Badou Jack problems. tell him to clear that up first.Comment
