    Camera angle might be making him appear a bit larger relative to Stiverne, but yeah he's thickly muscled for a boxer.

    Crazy to think he was at 168 just over a year ago, he looks very sharp at 175.

    I Can't find anything on what he weighs on the night, he looks huge, must be at least 190.

    they are both from a tight knit Haitian community in Canada . . . even if they were in the same weightclass (like Pascal) it is very unlikely it would ever happen

    175 is as high as Adonis can move up, he needs the size advantage to work things his way in the ring...Lets see how No Remorse Kovalev will deal with this French beast :)

    He is as tall as other LHW, but he has long limbs which gives him extra pounds on the upper body, the polar opposite in Eskimos who have shorter limbs, increasing the ratio of their torso to limbs ratio

    Oh. Did he sign...somewhere special?


    (I don't think it specifies anywhere in the ESB rules that you can't post taint selfies...they are technically not obscenity, at least not my definition...)

    he's like 5'10-5'11 though, short for a lhw.
