    IBF ordered Adonis Stevenson to face Edwin Rodriguez in 168 title eliminator. Rodriguez has 2 days to accept or IBF moves to next contender.


    Stevenson has agreed to fight in title eliminator against Rodriguez or whomever is after him in the rankings, according to @yvonmichelGYM

    this is a great fight. super middleweight, top to bottom is a stacked division, especially with pavlik as a new addition.

    I thought Adonis was the WBC silver champ and in line to fight for the vacant WBC title? Why would he choose an eliminator over an actual belt?

    I don't know if he will but it would be great if Rodriguez took this fight, excellent match up. It would be on the Cloud-Pascal card making it a very good double header for Showtime.

    I can't see anything but an exciting fight between these two. Add it to the main event, and we have a nice card.

    This is actually a great fight at 168. Super MW is a hot division right now.

    he is the highest rated SMW in IBF i would imagine now other than BUTE.

    It would be a good move for him.

    Im guessing The IBF knows something about Bute we dont, so they are setting up a #1 Contender fight just in case...

    Chance of a Life Time for Mr. Kelly Pavlik if This plays out how Dan Rafael Says...

    Dibella does not want Edwin or Thomas Oosthuizen fighting Adonis.

    James Degale Probably wont come over seas.

    guess who is sitting at #8... The Ghost!

    Stevenson vs Rodriguez is a ****ing great fight!!! I'd rather see Pavlik but E-Rod will make for a barn burner too!!
