Did Johnny Nelson honestly say this?

    I might have heard him wrong, I wasn't paying full attention to the T.V, but I could have sworn I heard Nelson say he thought Bellew has what it takes to beat Chad Dawson.

    If Nelson said this then I completely disagree, based off Bellew's performance against Miranda (which was decent IMO), I can't see Bellew coming close to Dawson.

    If Nelson didn't say this then I just misunderstood and my apoligies.

    Can someone clear this up for me??

    Johnny Nelson also said James DeGale could be Britain's greatest ever fighter. He's known for his bluster and doesn't have much credibility as an analyst. His favourite reason to pick a close fight? "It comes down to who wants it more."

    I like rooting for the Brit, and I know Bellew comes on these forums, but I just can't see him coming close to beating Dawson.

    No he didn't. He mentioned something about Cloud and said that Tony would beat Shemenwhateverhisnameis.

    Did the fat **** on Boxnation not say he'd throw Cleverly in with Dawson last year? Nelson and the fat bald **** are both full of bluster.

    thought nelson etc. where harsh on Cleverly seem to think Bellew has now jumped ahead of him because he beat Macintosh and Miranda and pissed on Cleverly win over in Bellews which was Liverpool. Thought it was bad from Nelson and Oliver almost toeing the party line

    All about who's contracted and shown on Sky in this case. Always the way, whether it be boxnation, sky, 5, they'll hype those on their own channel over others.

    If he did he's got more confidence in him than his promotor.

    Even though Dawson got demolished, I stilll thihnk he'd have an easy time with Bellew.

    he's always been a bit mental even before tonight

    Slightly just before I'm sure he did. Anyhow against Bad Chad, Bellew is in with a chance
