    How is Stevenson the better boxer?????? He has ONE punch :lol:
    Most would agree that Kovalev is the better boxer of the two. It took Stevenson 5 rounds to set his left cross up against a guy who isn't that good...... If he can't get his left going against someone like that for 5 rounds, what makes you think he'll be able to land on Kovalev first? There won't be a feeling out rd v.s Kovalev, before Stevenson knows it he'll be down on the canvas looking up at the ref :lol:

    Even if Wilder did beat Stiverne, that wouldn't change the fact that he's a one armed fighter with poor skills, and a weak chin. I'm not too high on Stiverne, but I do think he's good enough to beat Wilder. We shall see....

    Cut it out with the vCash nonsense here, we're talking about Stevensons h2h ability at LHW, mostly against the 5 names mentioned in the OP.

    Sorry about the delay I was working on a DeGale thread:yep Lepikhin has a decent chance I was left a little underwhelmed by his performance against Jackson Junior, but how do we know Jackson Junior couldn't KO Adonis. Adonis is far less erratic that Jackson and that may play into Lepikhin's favor.

    Stevenson has better boxing ability? Fonfara showed how flawed Stevenson is.

    Stevenson only has one punch, the straight left. He drops his hands when he punches, and tends to lunge. He also has poor balance.

    You really think he beats Pascal? I agree otherwise though, but I think Pascal sparks him.

    I agree, I think anyone with a modicum of power who is skill enough to land flush stops him, and Pascal is definitely skilled enough. I think Bute might stilled have enough left to KO him as well.

    Bute was able to outbox Pascal for certain stretches of their fight, I had Pascal winning but by a much narrower margin than most people did. It wouldn't be the most shocking thing in the world if he beat Stevenson, though I think a decision win would be more likely.

    Stevenson is going to beat Kovalev? Wilder is going to beat Stiverne? Just like Smith was going to beat Lara? Or Hopkins was going to beat Kovalev?

    You have a real talent for making wrong predictions. Good thing you don't work in stocks.

    :good

    I find it silly when people assume you have to be a top h2h guy in your division merely for holding a belt. (or hell, even the lineal championship - since all you have to do is catch a besotted version of whoever already happened to be "the man" which in some cases means less than even beating a fringe contender for a vacant paper title...)

    Was K9 Bundrage, for instance, ever top 15? No, he wasn't, a day in his life.

    1. Do you get every prediction right? Show me your bet slips. I've gotten many predictions right, have you realized that the ones I get wrong are usually the ones that I predict for the heavy underdog.

    Rios vs Pac
    Smith vs Lara
    Matthysse/Ortiz
    Hopkins vs Kovalev
    Khan/Alexander
    etc

    Since you're such a good predictor of fights, you should be able to show me your betslips where you've won millions, right? :rofl

    If you can't, you should stfu about another man's predictions. :hi:

    Calling someone out about predictions is just about the lamest thing possible. If you haven't won millions, then you shouldn't really be talking. That's a cold hard fact and you're going to have to accept it. :hi:

    2. I actually do work in stocks (Investment department at the CPP), I'm a finance major and just finished my level 3 CFA exam. :lol:
