    What do you reckon to Funtime fighting David Barnes? Is that fight maybe one or two fights to early? i think that would be a great fight for Funtime and gain some good experience against a decent fighter.

    Between 10 & 11'00 depending on floor and seeting arrangements , this fight has no business being held in Manchester , it has to be Liverpool or Wales ......

    With the right undercard and the right amount of top spin from the media it will be on wherever it sells the biggest, it's as simple as that...:yep it won't because it's someone from Liverpool or Wales who's fighting... I think Frank Warren can bang out the M.E.N Arena for this easy...:good

    i think so because cleverley is very open when he throws or goes to the body. bellew is just too technically good for him i think.

    Based on what? that bad stoppage tonight...it was a commonwealth title fight and the stoppage was bad, really bad. Bellew is nowhere near as good as he thinks he can be, i respect him but he is not potential world class. That is just my opinion.

    On another note i'm sure Sky put the Ghana blokes record as something like 11-0. on boxrec says he has fought 4 times prior to last night, he also looked alot bigger than 5'6. More like 5'10.

    Bellew looks impressive and obviously carries some real power, but i think it's far too early to be trying to predict a winner in a Cleverley v Bellew fight.

    Cleverley has done a great job in getting the British and European belts, especially when he hasnt even been a full time pro and his KO record has greatly improved in the past year or two. I don't remember being in much trouble in any of his fights either - he looks to have a decent chin.

    Bellew has not reached Cleverley's level yet - not his fault as it's common knowledge loads of fighters have refused to get in the ring with him.

    I'd like to see Clev turn full time pro, get a few European defences under his belt....hopefully, and for Bellew to step up his level of opposition.

    These two will fight, hopefully it will be at world level a year or two down the line, but i dont personally agree with the opinion that Bellew wipes the floor with Cleverley. Not at this moment in time anyway.

    bellew got caught by tht guy he was fighting last night, so if he can catch him a few times i see clev doing it easily and to me i think hes going to be a quality backfoot fighter, no evidence as yet but lets see.

    Too early to tell I feel.

    I'll get it out of the way early, I'd be supporting Clev big time, so I may be a bit biased.

    However, Bellew is doing so well at the moment it's difficult to gauge how good he is. Sounds a bit backward I know but you can't judge anybody on 90 seconds against somebody you've never heard of. There is no measuring stick.

    Hopefully he'll get a 'name' in the ring soon. I know it's not for the want of trying and Tony wants that more than any of us.

    I really liek bellew but i think there is some major brown nosing on esb towards him, folk should lay off clev and his **** beard. Clev will be too much for bellew. He is lightyears infront of him and as the beating of him trust me. Dan90210 can agree that i am god then also...
