The Fonfara fight showed that Stevenson doesn't know what to do if he can't KO his opponent. He also has poor stamina.
Kovalev should fight Pascal and steal Stevenson's other big payday, putting even more pressure on him to fight Kovalev.
that would be great if stevenson fought beterbiev.but lets be realistic stevenson is in no rush to take on the destroyer.beterbiev destroyed cloud way more easily then stevenson did.I think beterbiev is a bigger threat to stevenson than kovalev is.come to think of it everyone is a legit threat to stevenson.
I agree, Kovalev should take it easy with Pascal and let Stevenson dig himself even furtuer in inactivity and age. That will have given some time for beterbiev to show more
I would laugh so hard if Kovalev were to point out the irony in Stevenson being a former pimp, only to become Haymon's ho.
Stevenson always has the option of fighting Brahmer. And Im sure Lucian Bute would be game for the payday, and Showtime still owes Bute 1 fight @ 2 million on his contract. I think Bute would be an easish win for Stevenson unless Bute gets a confidence type dominant win beforehand, and Stevenson could throw the payday at him as a now or never type deal and catch Bute unprepared mentally as we've seen in the Grachev and Pascal fights. :think
The pimp is running scared... He's gonna to fight euro levels guys for as long as he can because he knows the Soviet killers have his number... Brahmer is a risky fight as well, But Stevenson is more likely to face him than Kovalev, or Beterbiev...
Haymon will never let the hard fights get anywhere near Stevenson until he is ready to cash him out, and he's not ready yet.
boxrec somehow has them listed as 1 stevenson 2 kovalev even though Kpv has 3 of the 4 belts and just beat boxrecs #1 Hopkins go figure
