Comments Thread For: Adonis Stevenson Suffers From Severe Traumatic Brain Injury

Since there’s no evidence other than the testimonies, the defense team will rightfully object them. If the prosecutors decline to take out those charges, they let the judge know of the disagreement. If he sustains the objection, prosecutors have to ammend the accusation and remove the charges.

Edit: Of course, the defense team must object. If they do not, the judge won’t do their work for them. In that case, they’re the one that violated the ABA rules lol.

If it gets to that point than this entire exercise is just a big signal the prosecutor is sending to the judge saying the investigators think this is what happened. All of it will be thrown out and all parties are aware of it. But the judge is human you can't expect him to not remember that this is a likely scenario.

"Kellog's" Kovaleva is now two time happy, first Adonis get KOed and then he's into coma, the russian bully/quiter is now only praying that something bad happen to Andre Ward, even outside the ring.. those euros folks and their BS mentality..

Huh? Has Kovalev said anything about this at all or you just making **** up? Just because a few angry dudes on the Scene say some spiteful **** doesn't mean that a whole continent fits in to some weird stereotype you got.

He was sentenced to prison and served his time so yeah he paid his debt to society whether you agree or don't. Since then he has taken measures to try and redeem himself. If you choose not to forgive him, ok.

Reading that article I can't agree man. To do that **** you have to have real evil inside you. He has likely destroyed those girls lives forever. I definately wouldn't forgive him.

you usually see this happening to lower tier boxers that are not known. very rare for a top fighter to suffer this fate. and boxing is doing a good job sweeping this tragic case under the rug because it'll reignite calls to ban the sport outright. if you go on dailymail and read this story all the comments are calling on boxing to be banned. when this story blows over Stevenson sadly will be forgotten because the sport wants to avoid bad press.

It definitely doesn't seem to be getting much mention in the media in the UK. I think the fact it was on the same night as such a big fight as Fury Wilder has made it easy to ignore. I was pretty disgusted that Adam Smith and Johnny Nelson didn't even mention it or give him best wishes on Sky Sports news.

You have to be kidding. If you read, then you would know he was charged with making those threats. You think threatening to stick a knife in someone's anus is itself not a crime? Or that because he didn't end up doing it, it's OK? Sorry to inform you but that threat is still a crime, and a horrible one.

I don't really want to get into this pointless argument, but I have to point out that threatening to do something, and actually doing it, are two completely different things, and are classed as such under the law.
Threats are an intimidation tactic, and can be a criminal offence, but in no way does it mean that the person had any intention of actually following through on the threats.
Have you never been in a fight, argument or stand off? All kind of threats get made, it doesn't mean any of them are actually going to happen.

Sorry but [deleted by me] response. Almost unbelievable.
We're talking about someone who with up to 3 others brutally beat these girls for days.

In that case karma will come for you for celebrating somebody suffering life changing injuries.

Karma comes for all, better hope it doesn't come for you.

He’ll never pay his debt, this POS has lived a privileged life whilst he brutally destroyed the lives of innocent victims.

“Paid his debt” GTFOH

Utter nonsense. Can't believe I'm defending him but if he doesn't deserve a 2nd chance THEN NO ONE THAT EVER GOES TO PRISON DOES.

You can't pick and choose but hey you must me be a model citizen who has NEVER broken any laws (don't say you are because their are enough laws on the books that anything we do in life can be made into a crime because of the plethora of Fed Criminal statues that are on the books).

[apollocreed]

Wtf? Why would it come for me you ****? I'm not the loser celebrating life changing brain injuries to another person. That's low, anyone who does that shouldn't even be talking about karma.

Father time needs to have a long hard look at himself over this shit.
