    No I was just looking for evidence that the rumours were true.

    If a failed gambler, then he needs to have a good look at himself and seek professional help.

    He was heard shouting about "holding the bells" but that could have meant a couple of things

    Don't care! I'm yet to find a person whose opinion I value who thinks he provides value! The guy is painful.

    I'm just glad he's gone. He's ruined british boxing for decades now. It's like heaven having him gone and not having to see or listen to the useless guy.

    Yep sky boxing commentary has improved massively, though it was a low bar…you heard him on the darts? just as bad then - literally ruined the matches he commentated on!

    I think as a presenter he's good, it's his commentary, it's terrible. Spends half the fight talking about their back story. I think he comes across very well in interviews. Above all I hope he can come through his troubles, whatever is next for him.

    I share the sentiments Moog.

    Far too sensible a post for a Friday evening though. Reporting you....

    The best thing to happen to Sky Commentary was for Bellew to leave for that streaming channel.

    Enhanced the production overnight.

    I hope so because I heard he was driving around in the car and he hit a pot hole. To top it all his kids were in the car ! It’s madness. He needs to stay home, stay safe, with his wife and kids.
