    Well after the abysmal fight last night I can't imagine the casuals being too interested in watching Bellew again, so Hearn might be happy to throw him under the bus and let him get sparked out by the Hernandez/Ofolabi winner. Plus I'm sure either man would be happy to takes Hearns money for an easy defence.

    Like he told us he would shut us all up against Stevenson right? Has every interviewer forgot about that performance after MONTHS of bellew telling everyone we didn't know anything and he was going to smash smw adonis...

    Slight gulf in class between Stevenson and Afolabi don't you think? What did you want Bellew to say? Yeah I'm going to lose but I'll give it a shot? You all said Clev beats him easily and that Bellew is domestic level and all that garbage, but he quite clearly isn't as he has beat 3 cruiserweights that would be good enough to win European titles quite easily :good

    No bellew just shouldn't of acted like such a ***** to people who predicted Stevenson would win, and what do you mean 'you all picked cleverly'? I picked bellew to win by KO, go on the prediction threads and look. There's a jump in class between Stevenson and afolabi you're right, but it is completely negated by the fact afolabi outweighs him by 30lbs. Afolabi would take bellew apart.

    That fight last night wouldn't have looked out of place as the final to the Maxi Nutrition tournament on C5. Domestic level stuff.

    And yeah, Ola easily beats Bellew.

    Well he fights on Channel Five in a couple of weeks- might help raise his profile here a bit.

    I said Bellew would beat Cleverly thought he got at least a draw the first time but he isn't a world class cruiser weight.

    You have to remember Afolobi is much bigger, Stevenson is basically a super middle.
