Stevenson vs Jack Rumour ..Eleider Alvarez takes step aside money... Again

Alvarez was paid an undisclosed amount to Step Aside. Also a part of the deal with a 5 fight deal with a minimum of 100,000k for each fight.

The talk is that Stevenson vs Badou jack could be next. this would be the best opponent Stevenson has had since Tony Bellew.

 

Alvarez will make 100k minimum for his next 5 fights, it was pretty much said if he lost to stevenson he wouldnt be re-signed or at least was threatened. Yvon Michel the promoter of both is very close friends with the WBC supervisor. That's probably why Stevenson will never be foreced to fight his number 1. stevenson hasnt fought his number 1 in 4 years and it was Bellew.

 

I have no idea. if stevenson fights someone better than alvarezz than this time the step aside is okay to me, if he doesn't then same BS as before. stevenson can make good money fighting nobodies though. Maybe Jack could beat Stevenson but if a shot bute can win 3 or 4 rounds vs Jack. I wouldnt be surprised if stevenson can win.

 

the stevenson of 3 years ago probably would cause real problems for the current Gvozdyk too many angles and a very trick south paw.

but talking in the now if it goes past 3 rounds Stevenson might not have the stamina anymore he is old and hasnt been past the 4th in a billion years.

 

He was a massive underdog beat dawson, then people called it a fluke and said cloud would beat him, then he went on to fight Bellew who I think is honestly pretty good. then after that nothing. He's honestly good enough to KO the 6th-10th best guy at the weight. but he never faced top 1-5 and 175 is VERY top heavy. Stevenson is able to fight on the inside at least but he has way less power there. Him vs Kovalev would have been great in 2015 because it would be great outside fighter vs great outside fighter. both are amazing at keeping distance a lot of people would disagree with me but I think Kovalev is actually better at keeping distance. Stevenson movement is really good. no point of even speculating because the fight wont happen.

 

I think that Jack could be a dark horse. vs some of the strong outside fighters. He is really talented at getting on the inside and lands so many body shots a fight. of course he could get knocked out in the crossfire. for the top 5 at 175 jack would probably be the best active opponent.
