    Good, this is obviously better than Stevenson dropping the belt.

    Michel said he wants the bid to go thru before the Mohammedi-Kovalev fight. He didn't say he wants Kovalev to not fight Mohammedi. So Kovalev, could fight his mandatory before a clash with Stevenson.

    Plus, at the question: "who's dictating what". I am sure Kovalev liked the money of the 13,000 or so people who were in the stands in Montreal, and the PPV frow the Quebec crowd who watch the fight on TV. I was at a bar saturday and it was jam packed. Kovalev seems like a smart guy and will agree to bend on few things letting the Stevenson clan to decide in order to get that kind of money again. Belts are for recongnition and recongnition brings you money. You may have three out of four belts and the better boxer, if the other guy brings the money, he is the A side, plain and simple.

    He didn't say he wants him to fight Mohammedi either. Reading between the lines, it's got step aside money all over it.

    man....this fight still needs to come off and ill believe it when its signed...

    but if it does...some of you losers need to eat a huge pile of steaming bulldog feces.....

    all you guys do is hate on haymon "oh the rating are in for pbc..and they arent good"....."pbc sucked...i hope it fails and haymon fails hes terrible for boxing...i want this fight and that fight and they havent been made yet so im gonna whine"......and when al makes those fights there will be another one hes is apparently impeding ....bunch of whiners that think al doesnt want good/big fights....al knows how to get his fighters money and let a fight simmer until its ready to boil over

    I've seen quite a few interviews that mention that pascal beat the hell out of Stevenson when they sparred each other

    Now I don't put much stock in gym stories, and styles make fights, but there's a reason why Stevenson ducked Pascal and I think it's because he knows pascal can beat him

    Imo Stevenson is an easier fight for Kovalev overall, but it's also more dangerous. I think Kovalev is better at every facet of the game, but Stevenson can knock anyone out with that big left hand

    Mohamadi got paid to step aside for Pascal, you can't take step-aside money twice. I remember back in the 90's some #1 contender got dropped down in the ratings for that.

    Stevenson is fighting Bika in 2 weeks anyway.

    Kovalev is clearly more skilled.

    Good stuff, I hope this fight is on NBC or CBS. Stevenson's next fight is on CBS, so I would guess CBS between the two

    Why are you dickriding Haymon? we should have already seen this fight a year ago along with about 20 others and this cunt blocked them.

    But rather than call him out on it, you'd rather be a good little stan and eat whatever shit he feeds you.
