    This is very strange. Less than a month to the fight and they change the venue..?
    I won't be surprised if one of the boxers declares himself injured very soon.

    Im looking forward to this, if it happens ofcourse. I always look forward to Stevenson fights like i used to look forward to Floyd fights in the dim and slim hope that they get KTFO. Moving the venue so close to the fight always makes me worry a little. Have tickets been on sale yet? Has it moved far?

    In terms of ensuring fairness for Jack, this is a good move but the timing of it is a bit troubling

    Strange timing. But I'll be getting tickets if true. Not very often we get a higher profile card around here.

    I hope there's no ****** business. Dear lord it's tough to get Stevenson in the ring with a live body.

    Whole undercard ported over along with it? So we still going to see Christian M'Billi, Óscar Rivas and Mikael Zewski in action?

    Those boys can't hang with the Fab Four - Gvozydk, Bivol, Kovalev, Beterbiev.

    The venue wasnt moved.
    They just didnt announced it officially until now.

    No tickets have been sold because theres no venue.
    Even for the Toronto show they havent announced a venue.

    Everything is weird around this fight.
    This will be for the WBC belt but two years ago Sulaiman said he'll no longer sanction bouts in Ontario Canada because some journeyman Mexican almost got killed over there. He spent a few weeks in the hospital before returning home. They had same day weigh ins that day and I dont think the rules & regulations have changed since.

    Its not a walk in the park like his previous fights so I'm guessing Stevenson doesnt want get booed and hear the crowd chant for Jack so they're taking this one to Toronto.
    In Montreal the crowd would've cheered for Badou big time
