WBC light-heavyweight champion Adonis Stevenson retains title via majority draw
TORONTO — WBC light-heavyweight champion Adonis (Superman) Stevenson retained his title via majority draw with Badou Jack on Saturday night.
The Canadian may count himself lucky, given two judges scored it 114-114 and the third gave Jack a 115-113 edge.
It was a gruelling, riveting fight, with both men enjoying stretches of success. Jack was the one administering punishment when it ended, however.
“He almost went to the wrong corner after the 12th round,” Jack said derisively.
