    Be interesting to see how he looks on the scales at Cruiserweight it will be more interesting to see how his friend Mr Clev looks also.

    I watched Clev versus Kovalev today and imo there is no sign of being weight drained and i think his move up a weight is a silly one and one he will go on to regret.

    Feed him Wadi, will have enough build behind it down to both fighters love of talking and I can imagine Wadi making Bellews blood boil in the build up too haha

    A durable journeyman or someone with a decent defence who will give Bellew rounds without posing too much of a threat.

    Maybe face someone in the WBC rankings, that's probably the best title to target at the mo

    Bellew should re group British Europe then world. Do the weight properly. He only 31 so do it good no rush

    Bellew Vs Daniel Bruwer would be a good step up to CW.

    Think him vs Jon Lewis Dickinson is an interesting one. Jon can defo take a shot or two (When Turba broke his jaw, that would of put a horse down!) but if he soaked up Bellews best would he go on and win a points decision? Another performance like his win over Matty Askin then perhaps he could.

    This is going back a long way but they fought in the amateurs and Jon-Lewis was boxing his head off then Tony Bellew got a KO. Jon-Lewis was only 18 at the time. I think if they fought now Jon-Lewis would do the same except he could take Bellew's power that is unless a move up to 200lbs really increases his power which I'm unsure about.

    Bellew and Cleverly don't have a hope against any of these titlists or contenders. They can't take Kovalev or Stevenson's power but think they will have more success in a division filled with punchers who are 25lbs heavier?

    Bellew knocked Dickinson clean out in the amateurs, it's on YouTube.

    Good scrap as well. Bellew was 22, JLD was 18.
