    I said Gvozdyk would win this fight before it was made because Stevenson was 41 and he looked awful in his last fight. Honestly I thought it would end before 10. I'm surprised Stevenson did so well and took so many rounds.

    The Nail would have knocked out Dawson and Stevenson on the same night. The Nail has a durable chin

    Yeah, I doubted his chin but he passed the test tonight against one of the biggest punchers in boxing.

    Stevenson old, tired and missing the power and sharpness he once had. Gvozdyk beat a faded champ, period.

    I predicted Gvozdyk to hammer Stevenson...So wasn't super impressed. Ok but not top dog

    I felt like Jack would have battered Stevenson in the rematch and still do

    Jack would beat this kid IMO, especially if he fights like this

    Jack might not have the pop to worry Gvozdyk though I suppose. Styles make fights and all.

    Absolutely. Like Monzon (and plenty others), there's a clear disconnect between the respect they earn between the ropes and what they earn outside of it.

    Agree. I do think he edged Kovalev over the last era unless Kov gets his **** back together.

    Proved what? That a SMW would give him major issues? LMAO. Everyone expected Stevenson to kill him yet he got a generous draw. Young 41 LMAO. FOH. Everyone knew Stevenson was shot and old. Dude got almost killed by Jack from rounds 6-12. Those rounds weren't even competitive. Only thing Stevenson proved in that fight is he can fight for 6 rounds.

    Apparently in bars in Quebec people celebrated when the Pimp got KOed.

    All these years of rooting against Stevenson, hoping and wishing and praying for an opponent to violently KO him.



    In retrospect I'm so happy that none of them did.


    Because, after all these years..... it was MY GUY that finally got the job done and ****ing ended him!!!!!!!!!!!!

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I disagree, Stevenson was the same as always. An explosive fighter who fights in bursts, gets tired easily because of his power. He looked sharp when Gvozdyk let him off the hook for a breather, and when he caught Gvozdyk he was clearly the more energetic fighter. At no point did Stevenson look sluggish and not dangerous. Stevenson isn’t shot at all, don’t be deceived by his age.
