    ...says Dan Rafael.

    Anyone interested? I'm not sure if Bellew's defense (!) is better than Cloud's TBH... sounds like they might be ramping up tp Stevenson vs BHop in Montreal, should Adonis get past Cloud.

    And yes I've been out for over a year, googled-images Carl Froch to honor my due to Pimp C's but apparently there's no avatars left on... ESB... is this ESB? The ****, it's BN24 sumthin.

    :hi:

    It'll be interesting.

    I think Cloud will take his bombs so the drama will come half way through the fight, as long as Cloud is still on his feet and looks slightly more focused than he usually does, as he normally looks like a Flinstones fan watching the Jetsons..

    If Cloud starts as fast as he did back when he fought Campillo, and the same for Stevenson, it could be the most exciting rounds 1 through 3-4 we'll have seen in a long time... nice analogy BTW, I giggled. :D

    Good question. Still trying to figure it out myself, and I've only been back for a couple of hours now. BN24 always was an affiliate to ESB though, and I remember the name 'Scott Gilfoid' for some reason......

    Cloud fights once every 18 months and won't be the same after the Hopkins fight. Would rather see Kovalev vs. Stevenson.

    Bellew would beat HBO'S new bf Stevenson!

    Same here, but Kovalev is now IBF mandatory (called out Hopkins) and Bellew is the WBC's #1 guy... says Bellew, "he won’t have to look for me and I won’t have to look for him. I’ll show him respect, as you have to with a puncher like that. I’ll go to his backyard as I’ve said – no problem". So we're more likely to see Stevenson-Bellew than Stevenson-Kovalev, if the Cloud fight doesn't come off.

    if he fights Cloud next (who's really coming off 2 losses) then he should be stripped of the title. Bellew is the number 1 for the WBC, so it should be him fighting for it. he's earned it.
