Bellew can win by countering on the back foot and hoping Usyk commits enough for Bellew to land not easy
Think its a bit harsh to say he almost lost the Breidis fight. I know it was close and tight on the cards, but it was pretty obvious he won it and that was a poor Usyk performances. He showed what hes really about in the final.
I have no idea how Bellew wins.... But if he does i am going to jump off the Humber Bridge!!!! Imagine him being probably best P4P then retiring only to be all over telly forever telling everyone about it....
He goes down as a british legend for taking the fight. Then a legen if he wins....... Anyone who says any different imo will be ignored by me as far their boxing oponion goes. The dude lost to adonis, who is a legendary and long reingin champion, and avenged his loss to Cleverly, and since then, he has been on the up and up!
He doesn’t win, don’t matter how big his heart is or how he’s going to “take Usyk into deep waters”. Fair play to him for taking the fight and chasing his dream but he’s only ever won vacant titles in his entire career and this isn’t going to change unfortunately.
I just do not see it -- usyk has shown a solid chin and you would think ko would be bellew's only real chance but it is boxing!
All Bellew cares about is the final bag of PPV loot extracted from the PPV Mugs - he don't care about winning this fight. Watch as he turns his back at the first sign of trouble.
Please place me on ignore in that case. You don't become a legend for taking a fight in the division you're best in. A division you've claimed to be the king of. Stevenson is not a legendary champion.
He better no quit,with all the **** he talks about others having to pull out of fights injured or they’ve had enough.
Beat me to it. Stevenson as dangerous as he once was, was never gonna be a legend with his title reign, or challengers
I think belle sees it as a good pay day. Ppv. Any hw out there that would deliver Ppv for bellew will be too big, too strong and too good so that route is a no go. I also think it's one of the fights out there that if he gets beaten even badly then he won't get much stick for it all given the technical level of usyk. However the other thing is that no one brings up is usyk is hittable, he has been hit plenty in some of his fights. And at cw bellew hits hard.
I think people have to give bellew some credit for firstly taking this fight, can say “oh it’s just for money” but he doesn’t need the money he’s made more than enough from the Haye fights and also now as a pundit has a job. This pay check won’t be anywhere near the amount he got from last 2 fights. He wants the challenge of facing the best and seeing how good he can be, as British fight fans we should respect that attitude as all too Many fighters are ducking people left, right and centre. Under no illusions he’s got a massive task ahead but all it takes in boxing is one punch. Bellew has underestimated boxing ability although he is nowhere near the level of Usyk who is a special talent. I think if bellew can sustain a good pace and really put it on Usyk from the first bell he might wear him down for a late stoppage but Usyk might just be that level too far and box to an easy decision. I don’t see bellew being knocked out and defiantly won’t quit no chance but all the more fans should support him going into his final fight and respect he is at least taking on a challenge that most fighters wouldn’t go near let alone for their final fight.
Is Ward seriously available for a fight with Bellew? I know there was talk of it but nothing come of it obviously
