Gotdamn, what a shot

168 would be a mistake IMO. unless he is willing to take short money to go over and face Froch. he needs to be Winky Wright 2.0 he needs to go overseas and fight himself back up. Winky was never an exciting fighter but made a damn good living making others look bad. Actually, being KOed may give him more quick title opportunities as you said. I could see the winner of Pascal-Bute giving him a defense...especially if its Bute. They are looking at the fact that he is a name guy with credentials in a desperate situation but likely damaged goods.

I think the days of people thinking he's elite are over but you're correct about the overseas thing.
He won't beat any top 175 besides Bute but at 168 there are some nice money fights against big name euro comp he could beat (Abraham,Groves,Kessler)
I remember before Ward people thought he was a top 10 p4p. Dude is talented but so mentally fragile and was beating on old men who couldn't hurt him.
basically, use your reach and defense. especially early. dude dont have but one punch. nothing against Muhammad but Chad needed Steward. also Floyd Sr. would be great for him...but I remember when he fired Big Floyd sayin "Floyd dont know how to talk to people". Thats Floyd though...he talks shyt to you when you are lazy especially. Seen him talkin shyt to Eubank Jr. :mike:talent wise he was P4P but there is so much more to boxing than talent. mentally, he just doesnt seem concentrated, especially his preparation for fights. Stevenson is such an easy guy to scout for.basically, use your reach and defense. especially early. dude dont have but one punch. nothing against Muhammad but Chad needed Steward. also Floyd Sr. would be great for him...but I remember when he fired Big Floyd sayin "Floyd dont know how to talk to people".

on another note. lets give Stevenson credit for what he did. it was an easy game plan. they told him...."as soon as he stick that lazy jab out there...unload with full power"

This nikka acting too extra :crazy:
