Ive been saying for years that he can be an ATG and he is realizing his potential!! BROWNSVILLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Knocking out a bum after previously losing by UD to Jesse Brinkley... yeah this guy's going far atsch
Roman is'nt top level but definitely is'nt a bum either. Good win for Stevens knew he would KO him but not in 1.
OK, a bit harsh, but I feel that Steven's is going to amount to a gatekeeper type. Whenever he steps up, he's going to lose.
Middleweight is so shallow that even the gatekeeper types have titles. If Stevens is a gatekeeper then he is right at home at 160
Golovkin has picked Stevens for his next fight, but Stevens' promoters do not want that fight. Golovkin does want that fight ASAP. There is an opening for TV in NOV., so if Stevens promoters take the fight it will happen. Stevens said on live TV that he did not pick Golovkin, Golovkin picked him. Golovkin by knockout!!!
The fight will happen because its the right fight at the right time. The only other fight for Stevens at this time is Quillin. Which would probably pay less. Stevens has been beaten several times. He's a B level fighter. GGG is a former world amateur champion, olympic silver medalist and a world champion. There is a serious difference in levels in this fight. It would be nice to see Stevens score the in-your-face shocking up set KO....but it just won't go down like that. He'd get blow out of the water. Simple as that.
I have no doubts Stevens would take that fight. His handlers, on the other hand, will probably want to keep this gravy train going since he's been putting up highlight-reel KO1's. We'll see how eager they are to see him get derailed by GGG.
I think Main Event fighters are more likely to box on HBO since they already broadcast Cleverly - Kovalev, they must have options on Duva's fighters. And beating Stevens after he comes off a 1st rnd ko just as Macklin did would look good.
He looks special. GGG one of those G will stand for good night.Genady Good night Golovkin when Stevens lands and he will put overrated GGG to sleep.
