    To my mind, Curtis is full of steroids. I saw a lot of fighters who injected steroids, and there all the signs

    You know who's buying the hype? Stevens' promoter AND trainer. They're not as gung ho about it, Mannix said it last night on the broadcast. That's cause they know he's gonna be trashed as garbage by guys like your next alt after the fight.

    I want to see the fight, as its two punchers colliding. Guaranteed knock-out.

    Ah.. So it ain't GGG it's the excessive hype and those who do it?

    Why do you bother?

    I think all this Stevens calling out GGG is media manipulation. Stevens has made a splash at middleweight (sort of) and would lose all momentum by getting beaten up by GGG next. Makes far more sense for him to continue on his current path, playing the avoided bard guy act and stopping smaller guys with non-elite boxing skill sets.

    Would not suprise me if Stevens actually turns down a fight with GGG, stating some unequitable contractual B.S. as the reason.

    In short: Stevens claiming he wants GGG is all an act orchestrated to convince dumb people.

    Floyd is the cashcow of boxing right now, he can pick and fight whoever and wherever he wants, despite what the morons say, he has nothing to prove, btw, both him and Pac are to blame for their fight never happening, and because of this I am a fan of neither but I have respect for their achievements

    GG doesn't have huge TV backing or huge followings, despite having a portion of the MW title, he is a low reward, extremely high risk fight, and it's not his fault Quillin, Geale, Sturm or Pirog refused to fight him for scraps

    Do not even bother. He is just some Afrocentric, Afrofag with an inbred disdain for anything of a nonafro nature.

    Pretty sure he used to post on here with the screenname Cellz.

    There's something to that I think, I would actually love to see a Gena vs Stevens fight, 'cos I think it'd give GGG a chance to put on a display against someone who is perceived as a real threat (despite repeated exposures against guys who can box a bit). But Stevens' sudden hesitation about making the fight in the post fight interview was a surprise, as was his admission that GGGs team wanted him.

    I can see Stevens' team as seeing the WBC belt and Maravilla mando a coupla fights down the line as a more attractive alternative than a probable loss to GGG in a coupla months.

    The simple fact that rising MW fighters like Stevens and (possible) contenders like Jr are calling out GGG simply underlines the perception that Maravillas time is seen to have passed.

    Because he's a come forward power puncher who will come to knock G out, and is also the strongest most powerful guy he's fought to date. Most importantly he's the only person who's calling G out.

    With nobody else willing to fight him the better question is, why not?

    I thinks generally, fans like to see to bangers fight more than any other style match ups.
    Also, Stevens have been challenging Golovkin who has never excluded anyone when ask about who his next opponent will be.

    Why is this crotch-watching hillbilly talking shi.t online like it means something?

    Calm down Cletus.....you insecure Eurocentric Eurofag..

    As much as you hate on Black fighters you have no room to talk shi.t about anybody.

    Now go back to hating Black fighters..
