Stevenson aiming for knockout against Jack
“I just need to touch you once to end it. It’s not complicated.”
With his May 19 WBC title defense against Badou Jack set for Toronto, Adonis Stevenson says he’s coming for the knockout when he faces the former super middleweight titleholder in the light heavyweight title fight.
“I’m definitely excited and hungry to get into the ring and perform,” Stevenson said. “I’ve trained very hard for this fight against Badou Jack. I’m looking forward to winning this fight by knockout. I’m from the Kronk Gym and we always look for the knockout. Jack is a good, technical boxer. He was a world champion and he has done very well. He’s tough and I won’t underestimate him. I’ll be prepared for anything he brings in the ring.
“I’m fighting him at home in Canada, so I’m looking to give the fans a good show. I’ve got power and I’ve got the best left hook in boxing. I’ve got 12 rounds and I just need to touch you once to end it. It’s not complicated. I don’t need three or four shots. I just need one shot and you’re not going to recover. I’m going to finish you.”
