    I am surprised Bellew took this I can’t wait to see Usyk humiliate the clown.

    Respect to both for taking this if it happens
    Usyk could have easily gone for an easy defence
    Bellew could have easily retired

    I’d go Usyk UD but I always write Bellew off and am always wrong.. you just never know with Bellew

    It's that time again for Bellew Bingo....

    1. it is what is is
    2. Deep waters
    3. As simple as that
    4. Just a fat kid from Liverpool


    Seriously though, hope the rumours are true....

    Don't worry, Usyk will win easily.

    I don't actually mind Bellew myself, but I don't see how he can beat Usyk. Bellew has kept improving but he's still just a relatively competent mid-range boxer with a decent speed, good but not great power, and a decent chin.

    That doesn't beat Usyk - he can't beat him from range, he doesn't actually punch hard enough to score a one punch KO, and he doesn't have a dirty rough-house style which could trouble Usyk.

    If Usyk beats Bellew, then for me he will be the Fighter of the year. :chuck:

    I'm not a fan of Bellew in the slightest, but should this happen I will give him his credit. He really didn't have to take this fight.

    I wonder whether it will take place at cruiserweight or heavyweight

    It's one thing discussing Bellew's power, KiwkiMan. But you ought to consider the POWAHHH.

    And hasn't made weight for two years, either. I know he's been fighting at heavyweight close to the CW limit but even so, I think it's a factor.
