'Superman' gunning for KO

Hard-hitting Adonis 'Superman' Stevenson puts his World Boxing Council light heavyweight title on the line on Friday for the third time when he faces tough Russian challenger Dmitry Sukhotsky in Quebec City, Canada.
Stevenson has held the crown since snatching it from Chad Dawson in June 2013, and while it's not the unification bout with Russian Sergey Kovalev that most fight fans would prefer, the Canadian said he will have to be on his guard.
"He's not here as a tourist," said the 37-year-old champion, who was born in Haiti. "He's a tough guy who has trained for 12 rounds. He's in top condition and I'll definitely have to be careful."
