Adonis Stevenson vs. Tommy Karpency on September 11th

[Dark Lord Al]

It would be interesting comparing Kovalev and Stevenson , if Stevenson fought Cleverly.
That at least will be interesting.

People used to criticise Haymon for getting HBO and Showtime to pay out for appearance fights/easy defences for his guys on their networks. When he started the PBC people assumed that now he'd paid so much for airtime and his new business was on the line then he'd need to make competitive fights to get big ratings and grow his business.

This isn't exactly a competitive fight. Haymon must be supremely confident that he can keep getting increased ratings even while putting fights like this one on. I'm not so sure.
