But Stevenson scared doe

He scared, doe. He forced into this by handlers, doe. But not sure they make the fight, doe.

[MDPopescu]

Yea, I used google translate for it.

I only know two foreign languages: French and English. I understand Italian, but I barely speak it...

[bojangles1987]

Why is Duva trying to beat it? I don't think she'd make it back, it's just money in the bank for them.

Yeah, don't bother getting in a bidding war with Al Haymon. She won't beat him.

[bojangles1987]

I only see one team making the moves here.

You keep saying this when it's ridiculous. Kovalev's side is the one who spent the last year eliminating the only other possible big fights for Stevenson, and convinced the WBC to let Kovalev become Stevenson's mandatory if he beat Pascal. The only reason Stevenson's side is willing to fight now is because of everything Kovalev has done. They have no choice if Stevenson wants to keep his belt and whatever little shred of respect he has left. It's either fight Kovalev or become another Peter Quillin.

They have always wanted the fight with Kovalev. They just wanted it at their number not HBO's. That's why Stevensons team went to the WBC to order the mandatory. Kovalevs trying to fight some stiff in Russia while Stevenson is trying to fight Kovalev next.



You have no problem at all with PAC turning down 40 mil garanteed while you cry when Stevenson says no to 1 million. Can you guys at least pretend to be objective and consistent?

[low blows]

Does Al Haymon wash drug money or is he kingpin? Where is he coming up with this money for a light heavyweight fight where Kovalev is still only popular with hardcore fans and Stevenson is only popular with Montreal natives?

That literally has nothing to do with anything. It's not even close to the same situation. Way to switch topics to something random so you can get all the people who see the name "Pac," see you trying to accuse me of being a P@ctard, and start agreeing with you.

Stevenson's promoter nearly had an agreement for the Kovalev fight. Stevenson ran to Haymon, who came in and blew it up. That's a duck, no matter how you try to justify it. And now that Kovalev put in all the work to become mandatory and left Stevenson with no choice, he wants the fight because he either takes the fight or becomes irrelevant. You're completely ignoring the past year of excuses that have kept Stevenson out of the ring with anyone worth a damn while Kovalev has taken away all his money fights and made himself the mandatory.

Kovalev is fighting a mandatory a month or two after Stevenson fights so he can keep his belt. You should get a job in a movie theater the way you're trying to project Stevenson's ducking onto Kovalev.

Stevenson is looking to cash out. There's no harm in that. They were close to a deal last year but HBO low balled them. There's no denying that. Canelo and Ward make more to fight hand picked bums yet Stevenson can't get more for what would be the fight of the year last year? It has nothing to do with being scared and everything to do with being paid.

Bojangles I get your point but if this happens it worked out better for both Stevenson and Kovalev. SO Kovalev had to take the harder road. That's what happens when you don't have the fanbase the other guy does.

Once they fight, winning and nothing else matters. That they didn't fight in early 2014 means nothing. It seems people are holding on to this as if it will somehow take away from Stevenson if he wins.

Fact is Stevenson has beaten the #1 LHW, Kovalev beat #2, and #3 and if they fight and Stevenson wins its because he is better than Kovalev and always was.
