    jack was ranked #8 when stevenson fought him. now he is ranked #4 BECAUSE he got a draw with stevenson. you are trying to spin getting a draw against the 8th ranked fighter into a positive thing? the wbc rankings are laughable. they ranked ocampo #1 at 147. who the hell is he? of course bums like karpency and williams are going to be highly ranked.

      This. Not even sure why this is even a topic. I doubt Stevenson is going to beat him and if he does he'll probably lose to Jack in a rematch.

      His stamina is poor but can't help it I guess. Dude 40 already probably don't have anything left in the tank

        Adonis has Badou Jack problems. tell him to clear that up first.


        Because Adonis is the LINEAL and longest reigning champion @ LHW ; the biggest draw in Canada -- you know Eleiders adopted country.

        Whos this scrub Eleider Alvarez anyways?! Where was he in 2013 when Adonis beat THE MAN? ; Adonis has been ruling the division -- all these clowns holding titles like : Alvarez, Beterbiev and Bivol need to thank Andre Ward for dropping belts so they can make something out themselves ; 'Superman' is the only self-made man in this class, REAL TALK them is da facts, I know it hurt.

              This is false, I just verified with TBRB that Badou Jack was as high as #3. in April 2018 ( a month before facing Adonis ). Regardless of the numbers, judging a elite two weight champion by a ranking is a very casual thing to do - I forgive you.

              I already explained to you that Adonis resume since becoming lineal champion is superior to all the current LHW champions ; please go back and read the previous pages. Have a great day.

                Stevenson turns 41 next month. To his credit, he doesn't look a day over 30.

                  Unifications trump mandatories, though.

                    For the IBF, but I haven't heard of similar rules for the WBC. Either way, Stevenson will be in tough vs. Jack, Alvarez, or Gvozdyk. He won't remain the lineal champ for much longer if he has to face those guys in succession.

                      Out of those 3 names an Alvarez unification fight in Montreal would make him the most money.

                      That's where I would look next if I was him.
