    I was wondering if the mention of Stevenson at the top of the thread subliminally threw you off. :lol:

    Scratch that post, it'll be even easier for Kovalev, Storm doesn't see the 4th, but its a definite step up from Browne, who IS A SOUTHPAW, another one I had in my mind.:lol: Browne would have lasted 2 rounds tops.

    From the other thread, I think it's worth repeating:

    The Alvarez-Stevenson debacle was all a setup by their shared promoter Yvon Michel to prevent dangerous guys becoming mandatory to Stevenson. By making endless step-aside deals, Stevenson could fight whomever he wanted.

    Eventually (several months ago), the WBS got sick of it, adjudged Alvarez to have lost his position due to too many step-asides, and ordered Gvozdyk vs Alvarez for the mandatory position.

    Rather than get KO'ed by the younger and comparatively unknown Gvozdyk, Alvarez is preferring to take on the older Kovalev hoping he's past it. He's not.

    Not sure Alvarez should have gotten the nod over Chilemba, and beating a shopworn Pascal is meaningless.

    I think Alvarez lasts longer, he's fairly tough and spoils quite effectively. I don't see Alvarez winning much in the way of rounds though.

    Bro, Yvon Michel is a puppet.
    Just like DiBella
    Tom Brown
    Warriors
    Marguiles
    Etc


    Who's the puppet master ?

    Hint no 1 : its not a secret

    Hint no 2 : Jermell Charlo just called him " the General"
