    Yay...a twitter fight.

    It does. Twitter fights > real fights in 2015. Their twitter fight was definitely far better than fury/wlad.

    stray cats usually have good brawls to be fair.

    "It's not hard to predict someone like you, you're very obvious :lol:. You try so hard to annoy me by stalking me constantly and writing a comment to try and **** me off. You're so obvious :lol:, you do realize that whenever you do this, I just laugh at you and find it funny at how much I've gotten to you, and how hard you try to get at me."

    You gotta give me props on how on point this was, and how badly it got to ya, hence the long explanation after :lol:. You went from 2-3 line trolling, to explaining yourself :rofl.

    These two really need to get it on and stop fighting online. I appreciate that the politics of the sport can get in the way, but to argue on twitter when the fight hasn't been signed, a fight that should have happened ages ago, is just pathetic.

    As for the exchange in the video, Stevenson did appear the more anxious of the two, but, you can't fully read into this without knowing how he reacts normally in a situation like this. Some people give of specific cues in certain situations. However, without knowing how they normally react in a similar situation and knowing their patterns, then it is hard to trully judge if they have been thrown by the experience.

    Also, some fighters just don't handle these unplanned situations well, or even planned meet ups like press conferences/weigh ins, but when it comes to fight night they still perform well. Obviously, some fighters lose the fight before they even step into the ring, but a guy looking edgey and the more nervous before a fight doesn't necessarily mean that they will perform the worse of the two.

    We have to remember that the ring is where fighters feel most at home, and not in front of the cameras in their street clothes.

    It just looked like Adonis was drinking, and having a good time to be honest. And yes the fight needs to be made, Kovalev KNEW that he'd have trouble making a fight with Stevenson if he re-signed with Duva for less money. It's ridiculous for Kovalev to expect Stevenson to fight fror less money, when there's an option for more, why nto go for the highest bidder? I'm sure Kovalev can make a deal with HBO maybe give them an extended contract etc, if he has the potential to become undisputed champ, or he can pay them out of his check.

    You mean when one try hard constantly posts on someone's threads/posts trying to annoy them, and the other guy just laughs at how hard that guy tries because of how badly he got to him. Don't see how I'm the ******* in this situation :lol:, he's not one either just a try hard.
