    I didn’t want him to win and thought he was landing the better, cleaner stuff and had control of the ring. I wasn’t being led by commentary.

    I don’t think it’s a myth. Later on in the fight he did indeed do that but up until about half way. The judges score cards suggest a very close fight.

    Never listened to the full commentary of the fight as I was there live and only watched highlights back but from memory Bellew did a lot of ‘come on’ type gesturing and was moving around a lot but apart from that it was pretty much as expected.

    He’s now urging people to take their kids golfing :lol: one of the most expensive sports to play.

    I'm not saying Usyk dominated every round but he was winning the fight imo. Let's be honest judges in UK events, especially a few years ago, are not to be held in high regard.

    Well, that's not surprising; it's probably another reason why he keeps someone like Parsons around.

    I know Jodie gets a bad rep, especially from the press, but you can 100 % guarantee that what she said is true, and what Fast-Car did to her is just the tip of the iceberg compared to what Gary Delaney used to do to her.

    Second-order effects in action.

    He is clearly running with the retired ex-pro footballer's crowd now; give it six months, and he will be popping up on Jimmy Bullard's channel, mimicking and mirroring Rory McIlroy.

    Behind the bravado you can tell Benn is quite insecure.

    I thought he was going try and kiss him like he was Usyk for a second there

    Utterly nauseating. Mr anti drugs crusader himself Anthony Bellew paying homage to a proven doper who is quite obviously still at it.

    You can actually see Benn’s head movements as he recoils from splashes of spit coming from Anthony’s mouth.

    He's weird, and a massive hypocrite too.

    What's to be proud of? He lost a fight with the cards heavily stacked in his favour, and is a shameless drug cheat getting paid millions.

    Bellew apparently had it 115-113 to Eubank JNR

    Nice of Bellew to offer some words of comfort to Benn. Say what you want, both fighters left everything in the ring
    and a fighters first loss always hurts the most.

    I must have missed the part when Conor was proved to be innocent
