    There is no way Bellew tries to box his way to a decision here. He
    has spoke at great length about Cleverley not liking being pushed back,
    fighting off the back foot. He will be aggressive,no doubt

    He'll box him to start with and how well he does will decide if he keeps doing it.

    He needs more than one plan.

    Unfortunately Cleverlys work is still so sloppy offensively with little defence to speak of that Bellew may outbox him if he was to sit back, concentrate on defence and pot shot. Cleverly has already had trouble with that style.

    He could try to bomb him out as he does appear bigger and more powerful. Its a risky manouevere.

    Thirdly, a boxer puncher approach may be best. Use that height, reach and jab. Keep it long as Cleverly likes to get in close and unleash. Keep it long and when the times are right, step in to unleash your own and step off. Either you win the rounds or one of those moments closes the show.

    With a workrate like Nathans, I'd go downstairs to slow him down because if this fight enters the later rounds you need to have broken hmi down.

    Tony needs to take Clev out. He won't box his way to a decision.

    He cant outbox Cleverley....he thought he boxed well against McKenzie if that was him boxing well, I'd like to see him boxing poorly!

    He will have to take the fight to Clev but put simply Bellew isnt good enough. Simples
