    At first I also thought they were chanting "USA", lol.

      I missed this fight but I'm so happy that Stevenson isn't holding that WBC title hostage anymore. I hated that mf. Hopefully he'll go away now

        Think he will be back? I think he fights maybe once more, and it is a club level fighter so he ends on a winning note. Then he fades into the background in his hometown and enjoys his millions.

        But a grudge match long overdue with Kov would be a fun novelty, kind of like the Khan/Brooks fight. Just don't see it. Stevenson never seemed like a guy who loved boxing, just was really good at it and found his niche.

          Stevenson losing was more about father-time than anything else.

          Good win for Gvozdyk but Stevenson was slightly ahead going into the 11th.

          Gvozdyk isn't anything special, IMO. I think Bivol is better.

            This guy Gvozdyk's stamina and chin are too good, almost too good to be true tbh. I wasn't really following the buildup but does anyone know if there was drug testing for this fight? It was almost unreal. But cong**** to him and hopefully we see him fight the other top guys now.

              Stevenson can still compete at a high level but he has an old man chin. Similar to Hopkins in his later years, he's still in great physical shape but if he gets caught by a big puncher he's gonna get hurt badly.

                I think it might've been the Ukranians chanting "Ukrayina".

                    Good to see stevenson get splattered. Cant stand him. And im impressed with these ukrainians. A great bunch of fighters they have at the moment.
