    All the way along I've been sceptical about this fight but over the last week or so i've been getting the feeling Bellew is gonna upset a lot of people tonight.

    For me that final presser and then ensuing weigh in has firmly played into Bellew's hands.

    Lets make a public poll and see.........

    Bellew may not be any great shakes but to be honest neither is Stevenson, he really doesn't impress me apart from his power

    surprised so many people are saying Stevenson is just gonna blow him out, I have a sneaky feeling Bellew will drop him

    It is down entirely on if Bellew can avoid that left hand.

    Ive just been watching him get dropped twice by Mckenzie, if he starts slow it will be a short night.

    Stevenson is going to confuse the **** out of him with all the feinting and posturing. Bellew's reflexes are slow enough that quickish guys like Chilemba and McKenzie could freeze him and then pop him.

    I can't see a Stevenson domination. Sure he iced Dawson, but Dawson was moving up after moving down and sometimes doesn't seem to realize he's in a boxing match until a few rounds in. Sure he destroyed Cloud, but Cloud is really not that good. I watched him get outboxed by Campillo for most of the fight, grind it out against Glen Johnson, and look clueless against Mack for a few rounds. You don't have to look far back to see Stevenson get iced by Boone and struggle with Don George and Aaron Pryor Jr.

    I won't be surprised if Bellew gets dropped, even repeatedly. Same goes for Stevenson though, and Bellew has insane recuperative powers...the second McKenzie KD was brutal and he seemed totally fine.

    I think Bellew gets outboxed early but manages to rough Stevenson up and hit the body the whole time. Might hurt Stevenson with some straight rights. Eventually he should look to time the left hook to counter Stevenson's straight left, or set it up with the right hand downstairs. I think Stevenson is a frontrunner and once the fight goes deep Bellew will grind him down for a stoppage.

    At least I hope so because it's like 11-1 odds =D

    I think Bellew will feel the power and run all night and lose on points.

    I'd be surprised if Bellew doesn't try to run around the ring for the first half of the fight. He's clever enough to know that he gets taken out if he trades. After 6 or 7 rounds Stevenson might feel the pace and his punches lose a bit of pop.

    I'd like to see Bellew put in a credible performance. I don't seem him winning but it will be a let down if he gets blasted out.
