    Bellew in a close decision. I think the judges will be selected carefully.

    I think he'll be trying to just work and work, but Chilemba will still land better and dodge a lot of Bellew. I don't think Chilemba can do a whole lot more either, he didn't exactly show it in the first bout.

    Chilemba was the one who could have done better by doing more of what he did. Bellew would have to change it all up and I don't know if he can/will. If he comes at Chilemba like a ****ing bulldozer until he's gone, I'd give him a good shot of at least a decision win. But Chilemba will most likely start faster this time and outclass him.

    I predict I will have a headache and will have to lay down and close my eyes up for 36 minutes.

    You may as well miss the fight and tune in for Dave Parris and IJL's scorecards, after all they will be wrote out prior to the fight.

    Dave Parris is judging????

    ****. I was going to put in some money on Chilemba. Dave Parris is going to **** it all up. I swear the British flag is the only thing that can give that man an erection.

    I'm not convinced Chilemba has no power, thats an overstatement. If he had no power I'm not sure he would have been able to maintain such a slow pace that was to his liking. He punches fairly well form-wise, not a big KO history but I don't think I've seen anything to put him in the Malignaggi category.

    I think Bellew needs to fight a little smarter this time. He came out promising last time, but thats a few times he's misplaced his energy for little reward in big fights and a struggle down the stretch. He gets the rounds, but for a lot of effort and not much impact, and because its so forced...thats what takes it out of you. He needs to relax a lot more, try to jab as he comes forward but he needs to time that jab at the correct distance so he's not victim to overhand counters, and keep a little more form and poise. I think you gotta touch Chilemba a lot to the body with a long jab, his head is a tough target. It's not gonna be pretty, but Bellew certainly has enough in him to smarten and improve his quality of work and without being under so much pressure that will help him, but Chilemba could argue if he'd left a bit more in the ring he would have won convincingly too, so its set up.

    yup , Bellew needs to use the double jab and let things flow naturally and put calculated pressure on Chilemba
