Well how the **** Stiverne is ranked as the number 1 when he fought only once in a decade?!?!?! **** WBC!!!!!
We Be Crooks are a joke... Stiverne failed a drug test and hasn't done anything since losing to Wilder other than get knocked on his ass by featherfisted Rossy and win a razor thin decision. Anyone else find it strange that fight hasn't surfaced yet?
No, that was a untelevised fight and Stiverne was knocked down in the 1 round in that fight as well. This content is protected Cold knockdown by Rossy.
There still should be fan footage of the full fight... In this day in age there's always someone recording with a Go-pro or their phone. Not suggesting anything, but it's just weird that it hasn't surfaced yet.
That's about where he belongs at this point. Though I would put him at 6 in the top 10 with Fury out and PEDvetkin about to be suspended. He's done more recently than a lot of similar boxers in the bottom half of the top 10 (probably 10 boxers could fit in that space depending on point of view).
And here I am still wishing for the Wilder-Harold Sconiers fight to materialize somewhere... ...yes, I know it'll never happen.
It was on YouTube few years back. I don't understand how in today's day and age a fight can't be found like that.
