Last time all of us in The Ring were so confident and overwhelmingly picked someone to win, Adrien Broner vs Marcos Maidana/Danny Garcia vs Mauricio Herrera/Lucas Matthysse vs John Molina Jr/Floyd Mayweather vs Marcos Maidana happened brehs
I was thinking the same. Sh!t got me
a little. Just a little. Just read an article stating how big this fight is for him, but the article also mentioned how him losing won't hurt him too bad in Showime's eyes. That part seemed kinda fishy like a heads up to those in the know. See the bolded from the link below.Why Adonis Stevenson Faces a Must-Win Against Andrzej Fonfara | Bleacher Report
Stephen Espinoza, the executive vice president of Showtime Sports who has been the driving force behind the network’s revitalization as a big-time boxing player, also didn’t seem worried about what a Stevenson loss would mean to his network’s future plans.
“Here at the network, our goal is to televise a title unification fight eventually. We don’t have any particular preferences on who the titlists are. We would just like to be able to televise and bring to the fans a fight that would result in a unified light heavyweight title,” Espinoza said on the media conference call.
Showtime might not have any particular preferences, at least not publicly, but you’d be crazy to think that Stevenson vs. Hopkinsisn’t the fight they really want. That was one of the main reasons to reach out and bring him to the network.
But it’s not the only reason according to Espinoza.
“I will say that a good amount of the fascination with Adonis and his popularity is that he is such a big puncher and he has these highlight-reel knockouts. That’s something that’s not going to go away with a loss here or a loss there. It does throw a wrench in his plans for a unification fight, but there’s still plenty of value and interest in Adonis as a fighter," Espinoza said.
