He was trying to jab his way in, but Stevenson showed he has some slickness, he is certainly not the kill or be killed fighter I expected. For 36 he looked very fresh, has quick feet and can measure distance quite well. I think he and Kovalev would be a tremendous fight and I doubt old man Hopkins wants anything to do with either one, it's the premier fight at 175 for sure imo.
    In my opinion, Cloud was thoroughly outboxed by Campillo and Hopkins, before he got in the ring with Adonis. And although Adonis beat up George, I thought George actually got to him a couple of times. Dawson had been knocked out by Ward prior to his fight with Adonis. All I'm saying is that he hasn't beat a Hopkins or a Kovalev yet, or even a Pascal.

    Big win for him though and he appears to be on a great trajectory.

    Didn't see this before I started typing, but I mostly agree. I thought Campillo actually beat Cloud a good deal more clearly than Hopkins did, aside from being in trouble early. The LHW division has really been shaken up over the last year. Pascal fought like an idiot the other night imo, and that was the only time he'd been in the ring for almost 2 years I believe. I think Stevenson knocks him out easily if Bute doesn't first, which wouldn't surprise me.

    I have doubts that Bellew will beat Stevenson now.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
