Do you think Badou Jack will DUCK Dmitry Bivol?

I've was never fan of jack originally, but he's won me over his last few fights. After he consistently proved me wrong and displayed how well he's improved as a fighter he gets my respect, especially when he's consistently chased the best fights out there for him. Plus I love body punchers and it's his big A+ talent. I don't really see him ducking anyone based on his track record.

 

Badou Jack has taken on Degale, Ant Dirrell, Bute & Groves at 168 & Cleverley at 175. I don't think he's ducking anyone to be fair. He has a shock KO loss on his record & has shown maturity & mental strength to overcome that & achieve what he has so far.

 

Jack is arguably the most underrated boxer on this forum. He has a good resume takes on all comers and is a quality operator the amount of disrespect he gets is sickening. If he can get a fight with Stevenson why in the hell would he fight Bivol over the lineal champ?

 

Nah. Jack fights anyone. The backlash he gets kind of reminds me of when Wlad somehow got pegged as a ducker despite routinely fighting big punchers and dangerous stylistic foils to him. You can stay stuck on the KO loss, or you can look at what he's actually grown in to, which is a pretty damn good fighter.

If you consistently hold fighters across the same standard regarding PED use, then the only significant red flag on him is that he works with Memo Heredia. If that doesn't matter to you, there's no real reason to dislike him unless you despise Mayweather enough to root against the entire stable.

 

Not the mocker, the guy who's being mocked.

Bivol looks very promising, but Stevenson is a world champ. Makes no sense for Jack to take a high risk/low reward guy like Bivol over a title shot.
