A replay I’ll never tire of watching.
Nice to see Teddy Atlas as a trainer again.
That was a good fight. Late “f.o.t.y.” Candidate.
end of story for adonis ! a carpet of bombs!
I have said a lot of bad things about Adonis, however as I type he is in a coma. No one deserves this and I hope he is OK.
A good figt with a good performance from Stevenson but unfortunately his last one. Too bad way to end a good career.
I hope he get a full recovery after his induced coma as a result of the concussion received. Nice sport but too rough!!
