    Honest opinions here.

    Stevenson was stripped of the prestigious ring magazine belt because he has not faced a top 5 challenger in 2 years.

    He can redeem this horrendous period of cherry-picking and inactivity by calling out and fighting the winner of the Kovalev vs Ward fight.

    Do you think he will ever fight the winner (or even the loser?)

    Thoughts?

    Yes, but I think he will get well and truly beaten. By the time he faces one of them he'll be too far past prime to put up a good fight.

    He should or else Haymon is wasting money on this old guy. He is 38 years old, its time to fight or retire and be put out to pasture by a younger Haymon fighter that will scrap other guys with titles. PBC brand is suffering from this form of ****ery.

    Somebody tell Al this ain't the rap game. Lip service works over there, in boxing your guys gotta talk with them hands.

    Well apparently hes set to fight Alvarez in February/March, so the earliest he would be available would be the Summer even if he did want the fight

    Yeah, I've got my doubts if it happens ever really. I'm glad Fonfara just lost actually because I'm sure Stevenson Fonfara 2 was on the cards lol.

    Stevenson knows that kovelev will put him in a home after all the messing around he has done to him.

    He would fight Ward as he knows he will be damaged goods.

    Yes, he needs to fight the winner for total supremacy, or be looked at as a joke of a champion. If he doesn't take the winner he might as well give up the strap and try his luck at beating Bellew again for the CW title.. why not..

    He definitely should. He is old, he needs to cash out soon.

    Or he could give up the title and move up to cruiserweight and fight Bellew again to try to become the first Haitian to win a title at CW.

    He wouldn't want to fight Ward or Kovalev, he'd get beat by both.
