    He changed his itinerary, changed his hotel, changed his arrival date and all... he's afraid Stevenson's team will do anything to impact his preparation negatively, afraid they might poison him. He didn't even show up at today's public training session. WTF, what a douche.

    I didn't know that.

    He does speak a great fight Bellew, I hope he can back it up.

    WTF indded.

    I think Bellew will fight very negatively against Steveneson (rabbit punches, constant holding, etc.). It's his only chance.

    Maybe he will prove me wrong but I just don't think Bellew is a world level fighter. Although Stevenson isn't unbeatable I don't think Bellew will be the one to capitalise.

    I agree, I think he will end up fighting a dirty and spoiling fight. I honestly think he should just throw everything at Stevenson from round 1 to try to test his chin.

    thats what bellew was saying at the presser today....saying that he was going to give all he had, and if by round 9 he hasnt won yet he plans to swing for everything and throw all he has to go for the KO....

    ill tell ya one thing....bellew does not have the best defence...more fighters need to learn to protect their chin especially after throwing...bellew loves his left hook, but every single time he throws it he drops his right ....

    bellew throwing all he has is going to leave him even more open...

    bellew dont have the heart like george...bellew dont have the chin...but to his credit he does get up...but what difference does that make, you still loose 2 pnts in the round and look like a fool....also he has never fought outside of england...some fighters like bute and ward also never fight outside their home town..because they know what happens when they do....

    i see bellew acting like rios vs pac....just trying to survive...till he either gets ko or tko...but i honestly dont see a tko....i see a KO or maybe corner/doc stoppage like cloud....but i really see a solid KO comming:deal

    Bute? That Romanian born fighter that now fights in Canada? And ward who won a gold medal on foreign sole? That who you talking about?

    yes you are correct...but to be fair it was at the begining of his career in fights against nobodys who didnt really mean much...so there is not much pressure, especially when compared to a fight at top level or for a title...but yes you are correct i had over looked the early career outings he had...but romania is is not really fighting away from home...it is his home and MTL is his second home

    its funny about 5 months ago or so i was talking with bellew on here, and we got into a deeper conversation about the top guys in the division and how he was gonna have his hands full with stevenson....

    i had told him that stevenson was a backfoot fighter and was a counter puncher, that he uses his right to set up his left and most his actual punches were from the left...i think he listened to me but took it a little bit too much to heart and based his whole game plan off it tonight, which is what would explain the press conference, he wanted to get stevenson pissed so that stevenson would be comming at him and he could throw the left hook on counter....

    as you can see as the fight started bellew was on his back foot hoping stevenson would charge and come forward, but stevenson kept a huge distance and was trying to get bellew to come forward....it wasnt until sugar hill told adonis to get agressive and put bellew where he wanted him.....thats when stevenson started to charge and bellew threw the left hook and got countered...which is exactly how i said he would get dropped, because he loves to throw it, was practicing it pre fight in the dressing room, and every time he throws that left hook he drops his right

    bellew bellongs in a home class, along with cleverly....or if he wants he could make a career like edison miranda...traveling the world as a stepping stone...
