Comments Thread For: Photos: Golovkin, Stevens Go Face To Face Outside MSG

True, but he comes out victor everytime.

How many times the great Arron Pryor got dropped, Tito Trinadad, hell, I seen Larry Holmes dropped three times during his elite rein as HW kingpin. Hurt really bad by hard punching Ernie Shavers, and of all people Reynoldo Snipes!

But these guys get back up, as well as Martinez, and comes out victorious!

Why is everyone acting like this is even a test?

There hasn't been a single post on here to this point from anyone picking Stevens or calling him a test so what are you talking about?

This dude lost to Jesse Brinkley.. He has no chance of taking out Golovkin.

No chance? He has the same chance Adonis Stevenson had against Dawson, a puncher's chance. FYI - Adonis was stopped by club fighter Darnell Boone so anything is possible.

He was also coming back from being brutalized by Ward.
And Boone is the best gate keeper out there. He floored Ward and gave Kovalev his hardest fight of his career

That is just ONE example. History is LITTERED with examples like the accurate one I just made. And the fact is, Dawson was still seen as a huge favorite. That was one fight in the many fights where a fighter loses to a worse fighter than the one he beats. I can name many fighters who lost to average fighters and went on to beat far better fighters. Dude, this goes without saying. Anyone who thinks Stevens has no chance, PLEASE take $1,000 out of your Bank and bet it against my $10 bucks then. That will shut people up fast. Anything can happen in Boxing.

Weren't people questioning his chin after Ward? I don't feel like digging, but go back to his KO and you'll see it. Other than that, bookies didn't see him as a huge favorite, unless you call being a -180 favorite huge.

I understand what you're saying, but that specific example the circumstances were different.

As for that, only a ****** would take up a wager like that.
100-1 in a fight that's 10-1 at the very least? That benefits only you, the only person you could take to take that bet with you is a mentally challenged person with money.

What is up with you betting the house on stuff too, only losers would be ****** enough to bet their house on something, that's why you see those degenerates sulking around Vegas, because they made an idiotic move like that

People were questioning Stevenson's chin too and Stevenson was a solid underdog who people were saying Chad would dominate. 15-1 posts on this site in favor of Dawson and we saw what happened there. THE POINT IS history is littered with examples of guys who lose to worse fighters and go on to beat much better fighters so anyone using Brinkley as an example is using WEAK logic. Using better examples would be describing the mistakes vs the strengths of both fighters and bridging that information into an analysis of why GG will win or why Stevens could win. But hate and bias drive people to say ignorant things or just want to see one guy get ICED just because he talked himself into a fight or the other guy just because he is from another country, etc.

Back to the money thing, if someone is not willing to bet $1,000 to my $10 bucks then they are not as confident as they act by saying Stevens has NO chance. This is how you end all the exaggerations, seeing how loud someone can claim GG will win and Stevens has no chance. If he has no chance then I ask anyone to please take my $10....I'll make it 20 bucks. Obviously he has a chance but hate drives people to say absurd things like Stevens has ZERO chance or No chance. That tells me they are a new born calf when it comes to Boxing. You will never hear me say a guy has no chance or call a fighter a bum. I give Stevens a 1 in 3 chance. GG has more tools and options and movement and skills but anything can happen when a guy hits as hard as Stevens.

That's how you rope in ****** people or degenerates. I wouldn't bet my house on something even if I knew what the outcome is going to be beforehand.

LMAO, I was thinking of Chevy Chase in Caddyshack....like some old school golfing shoes or something.
