Which is probably also why he's now saying he believes Ward won .
stevenson ko'ing a lwh that was top 10 less than 2 years ago and now coming off 3 stoppage wins in fight of the year fashion and you say matter of time before he loses yet ward goes 12 with brand and ppl call him p4p number 1 hahahaha

And to go further into details I'm definitely a guy who understands there are business checks & balances in the sport that are beyond a fighters control, but at some point you gotta f#cking do something vs a opponent people give a f#ck about you fighting & there are &/or have been more worthwhile opponents to fight on the PBC side of the tracks then the guys Stevenson has fought since Fonfara.

Stevenson keeps going for low hanging fruit instead of the best available contender. And thats not even a problem necessarily if it was a one time thing or every other fight thing like is all the rage among top boxers these days. Problem is Stevenson has been fighting bs fight after bs fight after bs fight. I watch boxing for entertainment not to see a talented guy fight also rans & Stevenson is a talented guy who I don't hate his chances vs anyone in the division, but all he fights lately are also ran mfers.

Mar 26, 2014 | Kevin Iole | Yahoo
"On Jan. 23, Kovalev promoter Kathy Duva of Main Events and Stevenson promoter Yvon Michel of GYM agreed via email to the terms and the revenue splits between them.
The next day, the two got on the telephone with Peter Nelson, the director of programming for HBO Sports, and the threesome agreed on the financial aspects of a deal. It would include Kovalev facing Cedric Agnew, a bout that will be held on HBO in Atlantic City on Saturday, and Stevenson meeting Andrzej Fonfara on May 24, with Stevenson and Kovalev then meeting in the fall.
It's at this point that the stories begin to differ. Michel said that he recommended that Stevenson take the deal HBO offered, but said Stevenson, who at the time was operating without a manager, declined. An attorney who was helping Stevenson at the time, Michel said, also recommended he accept.
Not long afterward, Stevenson hired Al Haymon, the high-powered manager with the ever-increasing stable. And it was from there that the deal to pit Stevenson and Kovalev crumbled."
