    Bellew's only loss is a MD to Cleverly.
    Who wins this?

    Bellew should stop Miranda at this stage. It'd be a good fight though.

    Miranda's chin won't be an issue. Bellew doesn't have any more power than Despaigne or Chilemba and they didn't hurt Miranda. Either Miranda stops Bellew or it goes the distance. In that case Miranda will have a tough time getting a decision.

    he'll have a tough time getting a decision moreso because of his lack of skills outside of bombing guys out with the right hand, rather than being incapable of bagging a distance win because the fight's being staged in the u.k. you know that right?

    Miranda really dropped off in a major way.

    Remember where he was years ago, calling out Jermain Taylor, even making Taylor respond to his bull****.

    Miranda has only struggled to the best fighters. Chilemba is the first non-champion fighter to beat Pantera. In that fight Miranda was up on all cards before the headbutt that caused that nasty cut over his left eye. It was all downhill from there. Miranda should have quit fighting after Round 5-6 and he would have won the fight.

    I don't know much about Bellew. Is he up there with these top tier fighters?

    Good luck to him. Who is training him now? Would I even know the name? I've said before, I'd be in favor of some form of modified head gear. Just enough to protect against butts. I'm tired of the most significant blow of a fight being a damned head butt.

    Bellew is a good fighter. He had really impressive power as an amateur and has shown glimpses of terrific power as a pro too. A great heart, he's smart, good boxing ability, plenty of stamina and a good chin. I rate him highly and I think he'll be a top class fighter soon.

    He's also a top lad. He posts on ESB regularly and has plenty of banter with his fans and critics. You can't fault him as a person - he's a funny ****er too.

    Easily one of my favourite fighters right now. I'd be over the moon to see him win a world title.

    Probably not. He finally dumped the jackass he was training with since Bute. He now trains with Eufracio Gonzalez. He trained Casamayor back in the days. The guy has a lot of experience.
