Adonis Stevenson

Combat Sports

Adonis Stevenson is a Haitian-Canadian former professional boxer who competed from 2006 to 2018. In 2013 he won the World Boxing Council, Ring magazine and lineal light heavyweight titles by knocking out Chad Dawson in the first round, a result that earned him The Ring awards for Fighter of the Year and Knockout of the Year. He was known for fast hands and exceptional punching power, and was considered one of the hardest punchers in boxing during his prime. For more than five years he made ten successful defences of the WBC and lineal titles, until a life-threatening brain injury in his 2018 fight against Oleksandr Gvozdyk.
