    Stevenson needs Pascal more than he thinks

    So Stevenson is trying to act like he holds all the cards here and claiming he's some huge draw because he got that Showtime payday.

    Here's the thing though... that payday was under the assumption bigger fights would be made and that either Stevenson or Hopkins would be standing where Kovalev is right now... with three belts around his waist.

    Now they are stuck with an investment that isn't yielding anything. Those dismal numbers for Stevenson's paycheck alone was worthless.... they knew not to bother putting on another show in September that would've been a waste of money and ended up putting Stevenson's next fight on Showbox against a guy who's name literally has the word suck in it.

    Does Stevenson really think he's going to get to defend against bums and make money? Even Kovalev was only making like 400k against Agnew and Caparello.

    If Pascal doesn't get the split he wants, he could just go over to HBO and get a decent amount of money fighting for more belts and a bigger crowd while Stevenson and Showtime are stuck making fights nobody wants.

    Fonfara rematch anybody? How about a Karpency fight?

    Also if Yvone Michel is so intent on throwing Beterbiev's name out there, why don't you put him against Alvarez or Stevenson?

    Let's face the facts..... Showtime isn't going to tolerate another crap show for big money and Stevenson literally has nobody

    yeah, I think Show and Stevenson have backed themselves into a corner with this situation, outside of Pascal who can Stevenson fight for big money? Between Stevenson and Kovalev and partly Hopkins, the division has been cleared out. All that is left is for them to fight each other and with Hop/Kov already done, all that's left is Pascal (after that inevitable Bute rematch lol). Stevenson makes a wrong move and he is left on the shelf for a year.

      I agree.

      Stevenson vs Pascal could be pretty big if they promote it.

      Imo, Stevenson better make all the money he can before he faces Kovalev...

        stevenson has to fight somebody of note after this next travesty of a defense. cloud was an acceptable albeit dissapointing first defense. bellew and fonfara were fringe contenders but contenders none the less, bellew was a mandatory so thats entirely acceptable.

        this next guy however isnt, the fucc he come from? i looked him up and this dude lost the only tough fight he ever had against braehmer and another one to cornelius white who isnt good at all.

        its kind of amusing how kellerman claimed stevenson "liberated" the 175lb division when he beat dawson. as much as people like to hate on my boy you all have to admit bad chad dawson never ducked anybody. he would fight anyone, anywhere, any time, any weight for any money. dude is a fighter. he was one of the few people who wanted kovalev badly although that fight obviously isnt relevant after he got robbed against that mentally disabled nurse.

        stevenson should fight pascal or kovalev next, he has to. kovalev too for that matter, its kind of sad when beating a 49 year old man is the high point of your career. he is still largely unproven in my eyes, stevenson as far as im concerned is looking more and more like a one hit wonder every day. he doesnt seem to have the mind set of a true champion.

          Pascal is looking for the bigger money, from what he's been saying, he'll pick whoever gives him more

            The hype he got after that KO of shot Dawson is bemusing.

            Seeing that money grabbing whore and her promoter dance around the ring after a man was just KTFO was disgusting.

              Even if he wasn't Showtime, he's still with Haymon

                  He has Pascal, Bute, or some guys @ 168lb if they chose to move up.

                  Pascal is in the drivers seat since he could face Kovalev or Stevenson (I think he is the mandatory for both of them)

                    it would be hilarious if Pascal fought Kovalev! Stevenson without a dance partner yet again all because he ducked Krusher
