    I guess Main Events is taking it to court -

    Chris Mannix ✔ @ChrisMannixSI Follow

    Showtime and @yvonmichelGYM have received letters from @Main_Events stating that they have a valid agreement with @AdonisSuperman.
    6:20 PM - 27 Mar 2014


    Chris Mannix ✔ @ChrisMannixSI Follow

    The letters indicate Main Events expects Stevenson to fight Sergey Kovalev on @HBOboxing in the fall, per sources.
    6:21 PM - 27 Mar 2014


    Chris Mannix ✔ @ChrisMannixSI Follow

    Main Events has what it believes is valid documentation of @yvonmichelGYM agreeing to a deal. Believe it constitutes a enforceable agreement
    6:22 PM - 27 Mar 2014




    Also read Main Event's and Adonis' promoter twitter exchange. Too lazy to put it all in here.

    They will lose.
    Al is so far ahead of them, he probably has the contract red-lined on his desk out-box, waiting.

    This will go as well as Shaw and Thompson's lawsuit against Tim Bradley.

    @yvonmichelGYM @hanswolson @ChrisMannixSI @AdonisSuperman You agreed to a deal. You should live up to it. Nothing else is relevant.

    Yvon Michel ***8207;@yvonmichelGYM 4h
    @Main_Events @hanswolson @ChrisMannixSI @AdonisSuperman but you know we needed to get an HBO deal! You got satisfied with their

    together. You accepted HBO's offer before we did.

    Yvon Michel ***8207;@yvonmichelGYM 4h
    @Main_Events @hanswolson @ChrisMannixSI @AdonisSuperman Again you are misleading peoples, I needed to get my fighter's approval!!

    Yvon Michel ***8207;@yvonmichelGYM 4h
    @Main_Events @hanswolson @ChrisMannixSI @AdonisSuperman And yes my recommendation was to take it but he requested me to keep negotiating!

    Main Events ***8207;@Main_Events 4h
    @yvonmichelGYM @hanswolson @ChrisMannixSI @AdonisSuperman Weird because we have an email saying you had it. Were you lying then or now?

    Whole bunch of crap, then this

    Yvon Michel ***8207;@yvonmichelGYM 4h
    @Main_Events @hanswolson @ChrisMannixSI @AdonisSuperman Ok but this not yet a huge ticket buyers demand!! Not a PPV level yet!!

    Their reasoning...is it's not a PPV level fight.

    This fight is never going to be PPV level unless they fight each other. Their B.S build up fights won't do crap. This is PPV level in Canada... do it PPV there

    What exactly would she sue for? Even if she believes she has an enforceable agreement(which I'm very skeptical that she does), they didn't even start promoting or training for the fight yet. No money had yet to be put into the fight. Seems like she's looking for attention, and looking to put pressure on Stevenson and his team.

    No.This is PPV in Quebec.Stevenson could walk down the main street in Toronto or any other major Canadian City outside Quebec and there would not be a sole who would recognize the *******.:deal

    She'll lose. Suing over an email? Are you fukkin kidding me? :lol:

    Fatcity is right, high profile Stevenson/Pascal fights are PPV in QC and might get 70-80K buys there but that's it, nowhere else in Canada will it garner interest.

    It makes it look like an even worse duck than before, which I didn't think was possible. Adonis jus doesn't want to fight Kovalev, period.
