    I'm all for hype and some trash talking before a big fight but Bellew has taken things way too far IMO, he's so disrespectful towards Cleverly it's disgusting.

    He's jealous that Cleverly held a world title, and bitter that his so called massive power has been proven to be false when Kovalev ground Cleverly into dust and Tony couldn't even wobble him.

    Now he's hanging onto the hope that it was just because he was weight drained...hence the I CARRY POWAH outburst after his CW debut

    If he is unable to stop Cleverly on sat he may have a breakdown that the whole "Bomber" deal from when he was KOing amateurs has been a lie

    personally i see cleverly getting visciously KO'd. other people on here have touched on it, but cleverly seems to be being portrayed as some really elusive and awkward to hit boxer. not true. and cleverly's ring IQ isn't great, and bellew if he plays hes cards right can easily hit cleverly a devastating shot. but imo both of them are being portrayed as madly skillfull boxers which there not. the whole thing is just being overreacted.

    Kovalev had to leather Nathan over and over again to finish him. No matter what fantasist Tony thinks, he will never punch with anything approaching the power of Kovalev.

    I can't see how Cleverley loses this unless the Kovalev loss destroyed his chin. Bellew doesn't hit with the power of Kovalev and throws wide inaccurate hooks that miss most of the time. I don't buy that his power is suddenly going to be huge at cruiser weight and his chin looks far more fragile than Cleverleys.
    No one on Sky mentions Bellews chin or the Stevenson loss because they want everyone to think this fight is going to be different than the first so you buy the PPV. Cleverley UD or mid-late stoppage and hopefully we don't have to hear Bellew ever again. Whoever wins ain't going to win a title at cruiser anyway but I'd prefer Cleverley to get a chance.

    I can't listen to Bellew any more, he talks the biggest load of b*llocks each and every time he opens his mouth. His verbal attacks show time and time again he is a w*nker of the highest order. Like the majority of posters i hope Cleverly gives us all a night to remember and beats Bellew for a second time, and shuts this clown up if only for a short time.

    Sky are so far up bellew it's laughable, as a poster said no one has mentioned how many times he's been dropped or wobbled at lhw, they go on and on about cleverly possibly losing his heart against kovalev but ignore bellew running for 6 rds against a poorer Stevenson, I think only Glenn has gone for cleverly, now not to say that's the way to go but others are using rubbish ****ysis in their predictions. Spencer and smith just think because of the weigh in bellew has his number just like they were saying groves had froch rattled in the 2nd fight which meant he would win, just focus on what they both bring as boxers and imo clev is a much more polished fighter which is why I think he will win, everyone at Sky knows that that's why no one is predicting bellew by points but hoping he catches cleverly cold

    If Bellew does his usual, predictable, 'jab jab straight right', Cleverly will box his tits off with his movement and maybe grab a late stoppage if Bellew gasses.

    Sky are going for Bellew I think because he is a pundit on there sometimes. I hope Cleverly wins and think he will but it could go any way

    I would love Clev to smash Bellew to bits! I've tried to like him in the past, but his true colours always end up coming out one way or another, and as others have said, comes across as a bit of a ****.

    Also, can you imagine if he wins? The **** he'll come out with doesn't bear thinking about.

    COME ON CLEV!!!
