    Ibeabucci got out of control, went crazy....................Adonis Chickenson needs to fight someone, why Fonfara? He was knocked out by Smith....................whatever, I think it is the degree of crazy, plus, life is not fair, some get into trouble while others can get away with almost anything............

    We let murderers box: Ron Lyle. Bernard Hopkins learned to box while he was serving time for 9 felonies. The sport is what it is. Football is no better.

    Different cases entirely.
    Adonis Stevenson was a criminal.
    Ike Ibeaubuchi was not only criminal but considered severely dangerous bipolar, if I remember rightly.
    And probably the fact he's been out of the sport for almost 20 years and is in his 40s would prevent him from being licensed.

    yet what Adonis did involved children, the lowest of the low. He is no better than Gary Glitter

    Adonis is scum, and you've got him dead to rights for ****, pimping, and assault; but I don't know that he's technically a pedophile. According to the articles I read, when he was 21 the women he managed were 17 and 25. Canada's age of consent was a ludicrous 14 when he went to jail and has since been changed to 16.

    get over it for god sake...at the time adonis was pretty much the property of a street gang they took him when he was a teenager with nowhere to live

    the man is now a 40 years old father who served his time,made many conference with children to talk about street gang etc

    i dont understand so much hate his story is the perfect example of boxing helping a man to get out of the street and change his life

    Learn about the justice system, Son. Stevenson was convicted, tried, sentenced and served his time. You may not agree with the sentence, but he did his time, and they cannot stop a man from making a living, if you really don't like it, and if it's like that, go to law school and be a judge or a politician. Until then you sound like you fell off the stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down.
