Adonis...

[J_Undisputed]

Jack looked like he was just happy to be there for most of the fight. He's a calm and patient fighter but his tentativeness looked clearly like he was intimidated by getting caught by a big puncher. I tried to convince myself he was just dragging Stevenson into deep water to drown him in take him out in the late rounds. (I had Stevenson catching jack and Ko'ing him before the fight) . Jack did absolutely nothing early to draw the life from Stevenson and bleed him slow because he only fought when he felt himself cornered. So Stevenson didn't have to expend himself as much as he should have, which explains the reserve he had in the tank down the stretch.

Jack is the victim of the constant draw, not because no one likes his promoter.... not because he isn't the hometown favorite (I was expecting controversy because the fight was in Canada)... He seems like a nice guy and all but Jack constantly gets the short end of the stick because he fights down to the level of competition. I'm probably going against the grain, but I don't know if the future looks too bright for him in this division, considering the murderous punchers at the top and his style/ring IQ. Toughing it out with those guys could be asking for trouble.

I think Adonis has a better chance against Kovalev than Jack does..

If Adonis manages to win the rematch he should just cash out and finally get the fight with Kovalev..it’s pathetic how these two never fought.

I agree that Stevenson has a better chance because of his punch. Jack stands no chance. Stevenson could get lucky but I would highly doubt he would win.

I don't see Stevenson winning a rematch. Jack knocks him out next time (if's there's a next time). But I see Jack struggling with the likes of Kov, Beterbiev, Bivol or Gvozdyk.

I agree. I was talking about both Jack and Stevenson fighting Kovalev not each other. I think Jack beats Stevenson in a rematch, but that Stevenson has a better chance to beat Kovalev than Jack does.

Jack can beat Kov by punching him in the balls. It worked with Ward it can work with Badou Jack.

I used to give Stevenson a small chance against kovalev. After the Jack fight, i'm thinking Kovalev absolutely mauls him. Its possible that Kov gets caught with a counter but I dont see even see Stevenson being able to keep pace with Kovalev, considering the way he tried to feint and cruise through the early rounds against jack. I think stevenson will just wear himself off trying to stave off kovalev with big swings while kovalev stalks him and picks at him. Somewhere about 3 Stevenson gets a notch slower and Kov will sting him with straight punches. I think from there its a shorter version of pascal.

I agree with that assessment, @Alpha . First time around, Jack had probably heard a million times how Stevenson could end the fight with one left hand, and that's got to have a little effect on your approach to the fight. That's why when I see the torrent of opinion that Jack should've "started sooner", I counter with "easier said than done", when you're the one facing down that lethal weapon. Now Jack's been there, done that. If there was a rematch, number one Stevenson would be that much older..... and Father Time looks like it's gonna do a number on Adonis. Number two, Jack has now faced Stevenson and the element of surprise is no longer there. Yeah, he knocks him out.

On the flip side Jack could be getting knocked out. It still only takes one punch from Stevenson.
