    I don't think Kirkland would like that. He's an aggressive beast, but soooo easy to hit and he'd be fighting a damn former light heavyweight puncher....BAD NEWS.

    Yeah, I think I'd put money on Kirkland going out in the first round, even at dead even odds. He might have lost to that unknown import Stevens just clobbered at 160, I really don't think he's much good at all.

    To me, Stevens is still an interesting opponent for anyone outside of Golovkin of course. He looks to be in pretty good form, he's still a young guy and should probably have always been fighting at 160. I don't remember how seriously he tagged GGG in that fight if at all? Worth a rewatch to see his expression getting up alone

    Don't think much of Stevens at all Brinkley and Primera showed us who he is how can a Kirkland fight not be fun

    Reachin pretty far back for those losses imo especially Marcos primera.

    Margarito already showed us who Sergio Martinez is by that reasoning.

    That's fair enough, it's just that Stevens does hit hard if nothing else, a good deal harder than Angulo I suspect. Kirkland can't do anything to avoid getting hit against anybody, and that doesn't seem it's going to change. The Brinkley fight was really bad for Stevens, but that was at 168, well above where Kirkland will ever fight. I'll bet Anne Wolfe could take James in that division

    I'm not saying Kirkland wins just seems like a very fun fight

    He is lacking for quality wins.

    He has a lot of heart and brutal power = exciting.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Big left hook. Is he a middleweight version of Rico Ramos? Depends on landing that left hook and if it doesnt come he is very vulnerable?
