The fight between Adonis Stevenson and Badou Jack on Showtime on Saturday averaged... 535,000 viewers with a peak audience of 611,000... http://www.espn.com/espn/now?nowId=21-40021253-4 Not the best ratings for a supposedly "legendary" lineal LH champion, I would say. ... Maybe it gives a little bit (just a little bit) of hope that the rematch will never happen? Stevenson might well say "fek it!" and go fight Bellew...
Stevenson isn't a big name here in the states. He's inactive, not American, and a true piece of **** as a human being. Really, the first fight probably would have been the better one to promote.
I'd like to see Stevenson retire. Prime 175 AS was an absolute athletic freak of nature and would KO every light Heavyweight even Ward/Krusher.
Mayweather has his claws in this for some reason. There's all these quotes from Mayweather floating around about the Rematch and where it's going to take place. Mayweather was even speaking for Jack it was hilarious interview on YT.
