Adonis Stevenson pulls a Floyd Mayweather trick



Adonis Stevenson pulls a Floyd Mayweather trick


Apparently the Floyd Mayweather virus is spreading.  It has now hit Adonis Stevenson.  What is the Floyd Mayweather virus?  It is when a champion refuses to defend against top competition and opts for an easy opponent.  


Adonis Stevenson has chosen unheralded challenger Tommy Karpency.  Karpency (25-4-1, 14 KO's) is ranked #9 by the WBC and is being compared to Rod Salka.

 
 




The bout will be broadcast by Spike TV and feature as a Premier Boxing Champions event - I would suggest this should be broadcast on the comedy channel.

How does Dan Rafael feel about Adonis' choice of opponent:

“If Stevenson actually is facing Karpency next, as he just tweeted, that’s Salka-like. What a wretched, disgusting, worthless fight. #boxing”

I think that's pretty much how all of us feel about this situation.
