    Not quite sure why Tony looks angry all the time . Anger usually tells me its fear , which I personally think it is.

    Looking at Tony's career so far has he done anything ???

    Gets dropped hard twice by a fighter who has lost 50% of his fights???

    Very lucky to get past Ajisafe not exactly world class.

    Look for Cleverly to deliver hard , fast and most importantly CORRECT straight punches right through the middle , Bellew will throw his heavy , wide and slow punches which will look so pedestrian.

    Over within 6 rounds and Tony will blame it on the weight.

    You could have put this in the other half dozen threads on the fight.

    Not sure about within 6 but I agree on everything else. In saying that, cleverley isn't world class either

    I doubt very much it is fear. It's just the way he is. Bellew has generated interest in this fight. It will be better than watching Clev fight some unknown European. Clev by stoppage in round 10.

    Not fear, it s desperately trying to convince himself that he has a chance

    Cleverly isnt world class yet but he will be, no doubt about it. Bellew will never be.

    I think Bellew may have his moments in the first 3 rounds, but although he does carry power Clev has a sturdy chin and in my opinion, will take a few of his early bombs (as clev isn't exactly hard to find) but will break Bellew down and take him out between rounds 7-9.

    Doubt it, to be honest.

    Don't think he can beat guys like B-hop, Pascal, Dawson and Cloud.

    He got the fight because he is a Frank Waren fighter. His mouth got him nothing. It's not like there was such a public demand for Cleverly to fight Bellew that the fight simply had to be made. It makes sense for Waren, he will still have a world champ regardless of the outcome.

    Bellew probably will lose though.

    When Bellew starts mouthing off he is just trying to disguise his fear because deep down he knows Cleverly's got his number :happy

    clev learnt how to box from a young age in a boxing gym, clew learnt how to punch working as a doorman, no disrespect to him but they are the facts. for that reason, i think clev will win.


    i do know both blokes have good heart and bellews chin might be suspect but you know he will get back up and keep going.

    it makes for a interesting fight and i really cant wait.
