Stevenson tonight

[beenKOed]

I picked Kovalev to beat Stevenson as early as anybody else. I'm a massive Kovalev fan. But I don't think Stevenson is scared to fight him even if Stevenson thinks he'll probably lose. What Stevenson is scared of is not maximising the amount of money he can make before his 36 year old bubble bursts. He's wanting to make the most money he can before he retires so that he doesn't have to go back to his former profession or something similar. You can't blame the guy for that.

If you paid him enough money to fight Kovalev he'd get in the ring with him tomorrow morning. If he can make more money going to Haymon then you can't blame him for doing that. This is prizefighting. It's all about the benjamins.

From the way Stevenson talks, the decision is out of his hands anyway. Haymon picks the opponents, and that's based on the money, PLUS keeping that/those belts under their control. Al Haymon = Don King with 10 times the smarts minus the dark side.
Forgot to say, you are right and I agree with you totally. Lol
