1. Eddie suggested on Twitter there is a chance he would put Tony out on the card. 2. Tony and the big Chilly both said to each other on Twitter they could go again ASAP. 3. No way can Eddie make that a main event fight again. Thoughts? :hey
i reckon thats a good addition to the froch card and a chance for bellew to redeem himself. one he deserves on balance.
No way Bellew should take this fight again that soon! We all saw that Chilemba has much more skill than Bellew! Also Chilemba will be 100% healthy (I hope so) when they fight again so it would be even more harder for Bellew! Also Bellew wont be able to figure out Chilembas movement and will miss badly again with most of his shots. But I hope Chilemba gets his second chance and then gets the win he deserved!
Although it wasn't a great spectacle, it was a close fight and it is a very meaningful undercard fight given it's for mandatory WBC spot. Also, the event is getting closer and the terms should be easy to arrange as both men want it soon. Bellew is another name Hearn and Sky can drop when listing reasons to buy the PPV. Makes sense.
Bellew said to Chilemba he wants it over Twitter and as soon as possible. In this instance (not so much the dying in the ring stuff), I believe him. I think he's genuinely embarrassed.
I really cant see that they put Bellew again that soon with Chilemba! He just dont match Chilemba in skills. Nobody can tell me that Bellew has more boxing skills than Chilemba! Maybe he has more power but the rest?
I didn't have it that close tbh. Bellew got 2 free rounds the first two rounds where Chilemba literally did nothing at all. After that he was pretty much controlling the fight
Tony needs a plodder who'll stand in front of him and give him a tear up. He looks average against anything else, it seems. Eddie knows he's at his ceiling, looking at those post-fight interviews.
