    His last 2 years:
    -Fights journeyman Rossy and gets dropped, then somehow gets gift decision after getting beat up for 10 rounds.
    -Went to russia to bully Povetkin. As he pulled out the fight in 24 hours before the fight night. Russians should have never allow Stiverne to leave the country when he did so girly thing to their country hero.
    -Comes at career heaviest very out of shape to fight Wilder and takes a dive in the 1st round.

    How do you rate Stiverne?

    Stiverne was one of the more overrated HW contenders in the last decade.

    Stirverne looked like he watched to much wonder woman movies in his last fight because all he did against Wilder was the wonder woman block.

    He's trash at this point, as Wilder showed us.

    A talented smaller heavyweight that wasted many years of his career with inactivity. His lack of discipline, years of poor conditioning, and age eventually caught up with him.

    At 225-230 in the amateurs he was quick and had power, but as a pro struggled to stay under 240 and became a plodder.

    This. When fighters show up that out of shape they should get fined or have their purses withheld.

    He’s sh!t. I rate him slightly above Dominick Guinn, who’s probably the least motivated HW today.
