Stevenson-Jack was cool as a unification, but without that it's a meaningless fight to me.

I figured part of the reason Jack fought Cleverley for the belt was so that he could fight Stevenson, and it would count as a unification and therefore make it possible for Adonis to bypass Alvarez yet again. Maybe Jack is going for one of the belts Ward vacated instead, hard to know how the sanctioning bodies will handle that situation. As with Crawford giving up his straps at 140 I have a bad feeling we're just gonna get a bunch of 'good fighter vs random you've never heard of' vacant title fights.

If he's fighting Stevenson I'm cool with this. If he's fighting a tune up before Stevenson he should've fought Bivol for the full title since Ward retired and the Stevenson fight would be for 2 titles

No, Jack wanted to fight Stevenson and have a unification fight with Ward. That's obviously not happening now
