Why is Stevenson up there? If that is a duck then shouldn't Kovalev ducking Stevenson be up there too? The first Pascal fight was an eliminator to fight Stevenson. Kovalevs contract with HBO ended with that fight. So Kovalev was no longer under contract with HBO, just won an eliminator to fight Stevenson, and then pulled out of the fight and resigned with HBO. The circumstances as to how Stevenson pulled out of the Kovalev fight and how Kovalev pulled out of the Stevenson fight are similar. I personally don't believe either ducked the other instead they went where the money was at. A boxers career is short lived they both made wise decisions to secure their financial future but if you are going to say Stevenson ducked Kovalev well than certainly Kovalev ducked Stevenson the second time. I am a fan of the Krusher but be objective and cut the biased BS. There are too many fanboys and not enough boxing fans on this site as it is.
The utter stupidity from thread starter. Why do people continue repeating lies hoping it becomes a truth. Kathy Duva and her boy toy pulled off from a scheduled bid with Pbc, so how is it Stevenson's fault that the fight ended up not happening.
Haye is currently ducking every Heavyweight out there with a pulse,,here's a guy that can box,move and has power and yet won't even fight anyone at C or B level,that is truly shameful but hey he continues to get record viewing figures against pure tomato cans.
