Mainly people on twitter but some here too think bellew would beat uysk. Gassiev would have bellew peeing out parts of his kidneys and eating his front teeth in about 3-4 rounds. Uysk will beat the life out of tony for 9-10 until his own family wont even recognize his face. Bellew has done well for himself lately but to give him a chance against either of these two is insane. Id favour all 4 wbss semi finalists to smash bellew into next week
Agreed Bellew is nothing but a vulture who likes to pick the bones of shot or inactive fighters. He gets destroyed by any legit top 10 heavy or cruiser.
I remember almost everyone on this forum believing Haye would easily beat Bellew, but Bellew iced him twice like I expected him to. The Bellew-Usyk fight for now is a 50/50 fight. Bellew isn't a low skilled statue like Gassiev and is a more proven puncher.
I think Usyk is and should be the clear favorite, but Bellew has turned into more of a boxer now. His post fight interviews have been amazing so far. I think Bellew can exploit the same flaws Briedis did.
I expected bellew to beat haye the first and second time because haye was old shot and injured. Okay if this is a 50-50 fighy do you want to do a perma ban bet on this?
ESPECIALLY with Master Steven Seagal training him! 18:51 behind Gassiev ringside... This content is protected “I showed Usyk how to throw the Jab, straight left, right hook combo. I first developed it in Japan.”
Bellew ducked Breidis cause he knew he had no chance. There'll be some excuse for Bellew not facing Usyk wait and see. He hasn't got a prayer in that fight he's too slow for Usyk who'd be peppering his face non stop and would get the stoppage between 6-9, it'd be a very damaging fight for Bellew, potentially life threatening and he's got a wife and two kids at home!
Penfold would do a Dom Ingle and throw the towel in relatively early before Tony is brutalised. Tony would then deliver some of that Scouse rage and insist he wanted to die on his shield but respects Penfold’s decision.
Bellew won't fight Uysk. His career in the past few years has been based round maximum gain, minimum risk. Watch the Matchroom PR juggernaut expertly brush this fight under the carpet. If I'm wrong, Bellew gets humiliated in a way his arrogance requires. It would be good for his soul...
We've seen bigger upsets. But I agree. However, if it gets Usyk ranking points to get close to Wilder, i'm all for it.
He deserves a tremendous beatdown. He is giving interviews calling himself the best cruisweight in the world and thats why uysk wants to fight him. Delusions of granduer, he needs a hiding
I think I know what he's doing here. So by emphasising the CW boast, he can swerve Usyk if he moves up to HW as we all think he will. The fight only has value to find out the best CW in the world, would be the argument. Bellew can say Uysk is nothing at HW and needs to prove himself in that weight class before a fight can be made. He's gambling on Uysk not wanting to stay at CW after the WBSS.
