Adonis Stevenson-Sean Monaghan Fight Being Pushed Back
By Keith Idec
Multiple sources have informed BoxingScene.com that the Adonis Stevenson-Sean Monaghan light heavyweight title fight will be pushed back at least a few weeks from its original date of April 29.
Quebec’s Stevenson (28-1, 23 KOs) still is expected to defend his WBC light heavyweight championship against Long Island’s Monaghan (28-0, 17 KOs) in his next bout, but organizers of the card were running out of time to sufficiently promote it. The new date for Stevenson-Monaghan hasn’t been finalized, though May 27 is a possibility.
Regardless, the Stevenson-Monaghan match still is expected to take place at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. Executives from Showtime and HBO haven’t shown much interest in televising Stevenson-Monaghan, thus a television partner must be secured before the card can be announced.
Yvon Michel, Stevenson’s promoter, initially was in talks with Joe DeGuardia, who promotes Long Island’s Joe Smith Jr., to put together a Stevenson-Smith fight for April 29 at Nassau Coliseum. Smith (23-1, 19 KOs) would’ve been perceived as a greater threat to Stevenson than Monaghan because Smith has scored back-to-back knockout wins against light heavyweight contender Andrzej Fonfara (29-4, 17 KOs) and former light heavyweight and middleweight champion Bernard Hopkins (55-8-2, 32 KOs, 2 NC).
Once the Stevenson-Smith negotiations came to a standstill last month, however, Michel turned his attention toward making a deal with Lou DiBella, Monaghan’s promoter. Colombia’s Eleider Alvarez (22-0, 11 KOs), Stevenson’s mandatory challenger and another Quebec-based boxer Michel promotes, agreed to step aside and again delayed his title shot so that Stevenson could make this optional defense against Monaghan.
Monaghan, the WBC’s No. 10 contender at 175 pounds, will be a huge underdog against the hard-hitting Stevenson.
Monaghan has a sizeable fan base, though, and it makes business sense for the first big boxing event at the newly renovated Nassau Coliseum to feature a popular fighter from Long Island in the main event. The 35-year-old Monaghan is from nearby Long Beach, New York.

I ranked him in HW and by my rules one guy can be rated only in one division at a time
he would be definitely there otherwise
I rate everyone in the division they last fought in except if they make it clear they gonna return to the old one and just went up for one fight
