How do you see this matchup folding out? I think this is a FOTY potential, because both men has shown vulnerability - specially Stevenson, how will he react if one of Bellews bombs starts to land? I think i have to go with Bellew stoppage, but i wouldn't be surprised if Adonis stopped him.
Obviously everyone is going to say STEVENSON KO 1 but I genuinely think Bellew has a decent chance here.
Bellew is more of a heavy handed cumulative puncher, Stevenson has legitimate one punch KO power, in a shoot out i'd pick Stevenson, in a boxing contest it's 50/50 as both lack tremendous skill, if Bellew ****s up he's going to get his head taking off and this is coming from a Bellew fan.
this has to happen, seeing as how Bellew is a mandatory because of his WBC Silver belt it will be fun to watch, Bellew is the better boxer, but Stevenson has the power
If there is one thing Bellew has far more of than Stevenson it is skill. On the other hand he sometimes lacks the discipline necessary to let that show. I would take Stevenson to detonate as soon as Bellew has a lapse in judgement and decides to trade.
Eddie Hearn, Eddie; what are you doing ? Bellew and Chilemba, is not Bellew and Stevenson. Bellew doesn't have the tools to compete against Stevenson. I know "business is business", but mediatize Bellew to avoid a clash between Stevenson & Froch is so transparent. The IBF is now waiting to see if Adonis Stevenson will get back at 168Lbs to stripe the title from Froch waist. Adonis Stevenson is the most dangerous boxer in the 168Lbs & 175Lbs division, and Froch will not be able to hide him for long. And if you have the strange idea of thinking of Bute, just try, and you'll see how Bute will came up with another injury... They's no fulfill my legacy for Froch, what Legacy. Adonis Stevenson is Faster ►►►
Bellew clearly needs to fight a lot more before he takes his shot. He's struggled with pretty much everybody so far and has a very weak chin. I can't see this going the distance, one guy would catch the other and there's a 95% chance it'd be Stevenson caching Bellew. He's just too raw and basic right now. i'd rather see how he matches up to Shumenov.
