Badou Jack reported to be in a big fight with the Pimp soon!

I don't think he's ducking Bivol... Never showed himself to be a duck, quite the opposite actually. Maybe he's close to finalizing a fight with The Pimp?

 

Why the hell would Jack duck BIVOL? Ffs.

Look at his last 5 opponents, all of which are far more accomplished and he beat DeGale's ass, someone who was #1 at 168. smh

 

If that's true then he gets a pass from giving up his belt.

 

Eleider Alvarez getting screwed again.

 

jack v GGG at 168

 

I think the argument is that the risk Bivol brought doesn't match the reward, fighting a blue chip contender with little to gain? That said I believe he's chasing a fight with Stevenson and thus it can't be considered a duck.

 

Timberrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
"OMG is he dead"

"One of the most devastating KO's in modern history, Badou Quack will never be the same"

 

I don't think he wants to fight the Pimp

 

And i guess the step aside money is nice.

 

Great fight to make. Hopefully it happens so Jack can put an end to Stevenson for the sake of boxing.

 

Jack the Ripper murdered prostitutes. Stevenson was a pimp. So I guess it's just a natural progression.

I all seriousness, Stevenson should still be favored in this fight even though he is 40 and has not exactly fought a who's who of top opponents. His left is his great equalizer, though I'm sure Jack will defend against it much better than Fonfara did. Jack does everything well, but is not particularly special in any one area. He can be hit, hurt, and KO'd. So can Adonis, which is why this is a good fight. If I had to bet I'd go with Stevenson. I will root for Jack though.

 

If this is true, allowing Bivol to usurp the trinket in favor of taking on
the legit number 1 or 2 in the division is more than acceptable.

Stevenson by TKO,
He doesn't fight enough to have gotten old.

 

Peace out frying pan, sup fire.

"I don't want to get KTFO by Dmitry Bivol so I think Imma just get KTFO by Adonis Stevenson instead". Cool.
