Claudette Adonis, mother of Adonis Stevenson, died Monday evening. She had been in palliative care for ten days. She suffered from brain cancer.
Yesterday, Adonis left a heartbreaking message on Facebook. A cry of distress and love. If he survived his terrible accident once morest Oleksandr Gvozdyk, his life as an adult man practically came to an end this 1is December 2018.
It’s a Greek tragedy. Aeschylus might not have written a sadder drama.
Saturday 1is December, in their Bonne Entente suite, around 3:30 a.m., Adonis, world champion and all handsome, leaned over Adonia, the couple’s six-week-old baby, and whispered to him: “Sleep my baby, daddy is going go to work and he will come back to find you”.
Simone God, mother and great love of Adonis, took a video of the kiss.
Then, Adonis got into a limo for the Videotron Center.
THE DRAMA
That night, it seemed like nothing was going as planned. Christian Gauthier, the house announcer, began to suffer from a severe loss of voice. Finally, it was LP Guy of 91.9 Sports who replaced him at short notice for Showtime. Fortunately, he was wearing his eternal black suit.
The fight lasted 11 rounds. And seconds from the end of the 11eGvozdyk floored Stevenson in his own corner.
He remained lying on the first cable. I was very close to the ring and I saw his mother Claudette rush to the corner staircase. She climbed hard into the arena, helped by the corner men. Then, Stevenson got up to sit down on a stool.
No one believed he would be close to death in an hour and a half. He got out of the ring on his own and headed for the locker room.
Far from ADONIA
The rest of the story, you know it. The operation, the miraculous survival and the return of Adonis with Sisi God. In the year that followed, the court wars began.
The result is that Claudette Adonis became her son’s tutor. With a firm of lawyers and tax experts, she watched over the life and property of Adonis.
Adonis’ childhood had not been very good. That’s an understatement. And in a family situation that was difficult to say the least, Adonis had to learn to survive on the streets. Over the past few years, Mrs. Adonis has had the opportunity to rebuild her relationship with her son. And he is a grieving man who poured out his pain and pain on Facebook.
IN MAY
Adonis finds himself alone. Simone God is with her daughter Adonia in Dubai where she is rebuilding her life as an influencer.
Adonis has made progress and if he passes the psychological aptitude tests, he might regain his autonomy and manage his own affairs from May. If it goes well.
He was able to buy a Mercedes and drive it. And the trust created to manage its finances has done its job well. Adonis should be good for several years.
But it remains a life crushed by a terrible tragedy. A man bends over his baby and 12 hours later, he lies in an artificial coma in a hospital in Quebec.
He will never be the man he was. Vipers will tear the blood from their guts to vomit on the former champion, to say that it was deserved.
Nothing can justify this venom. Especially not a dead mother, a former love in Dubai with her daughter who wanders between Toronto and Dubai and a man trying to find who he is in the glory of a WBC world championship belt.
My condolences, Adonis. And the rest of the family.
