Stevenson targets Ward-Kovalev winner

Andrew Karlov May 31, 2017, 3:04 a.m.

WBC light heavyweight champion Adonis Stevenson is already making plans for his next move after Saturday’s scheduled title defense against Andrzej Fonfara in a Showtime-televised bout from Montreal. “My goal is to unify the titles with the winner of (Sergey) Kovalev and (Andre) Ward,” proclaimed Stevenson. “I want the unification, but if not I’ll make my mandatory. If Ward wins I want to fight him, if Kovalev wins I want to fight him. I’m ready.”

His mandatory challenger is stablemate Eleider Alvarez, who took step-aside money to allow Stevenson-Forfara to go forward. Alvarez fights former 175-pound champ Jean Pascal on Saturday’s undercard.
