Over @ the Scene a Article done by our Very Own Shaun Brown (theuppercut) Very interesting article once again from the Cobra! Enjoy A very good piece btw Shaun. Had to chop a few bits out cos i'm not sure if you can post the full articles from the scene?. :good
Froch backing bellew? To avoid awkwardness in the gym because he spars with him or genuine belief or dislike of ******?
Yeah wondered that myself, He's right about Clev not scratching surface and Carl's never been one to not say what he thinks. I'd like to think it's pure honesty. I remember when he sparred Groves he said he give DeGale trouble. Can't remember if he made a prediction. Great Sparring for Bellew though he's really putting the hard graft in.
i think he means what he says, personally i still think it is 50-50 fight, but if i had to pick i would go for bellew
Sometimes fighters just wanna start camp off with regular sparring. Do other fighters favor's and also spar guys with different attributes. He might of used Bellew for his strength/power and then as camp rolls on he may have got someone else in resembling Ward although that will be tough we don't have many fighters here who fight like Ward but i'm sure he's got the right type of sparring.
I bet Bellew has been absolutely dominated in sparring, interesting he picks Bellew. That is due to the fact that Clev is ultimately un-tested but is way above Bellend.
