    Winning an ABA title is a great achievement, any keyboard warrior shitting on boxers is just clueless, Bellew had a ****ing brilliant career and 99% won't achieve what he did. BUT, we live in an era where British champions are bums and world level fighters are cowards. So, carry on ***gots.

    Usyk won a boatload of amateur title more prestigious than an ABA.

    Bellew’s career was mediocre.

    How many defences of his title did he make against the best opposition?

    Which works class/elite scalps did he get?

    How many divisions did he dominate?

    Have a day off, mate.

    It’s brilliant that a Brit who for only the 6th time in history is fighting for all 4 belts gets KO’d?

    What the **** am I reading here.

    He’s an honest, hard working man. He’s levels apart from usyk. We all knew that. At least it weren’t a devastating one and hopefully he can retire in full health.

    What are you actually talking about? I never said people can’t have an opinion I said the guy achieved a hell of a lot both titles and big money. To go around slating the bloke when he just put up a good account of himself. You say who made him rich, he’s rich because obviously he is entertaining and built a fan base. Personally i was entertained last night. Just don’t understand people being so negative and rude for no real reason and what they gain out of life in doing so? But fair enough do what makes you happy.

    No ones saying he’s had a better career than Usyk. Usyk has had a career that is what everyone dreams of. But in terms of Bellew 100% of upcoming British fighters would take his career in a heartbeat. Let’s be honest here, ask any fighter if that’s a mediocre career. He’s not an all time great but he achieved a hell of a lot.

    Don’t like Bellew at all, but he put it all on the line and tested himself against the very best. Watching him rise to his feet, clearly out of it shows he has a massive heart. Can’t but respect him for that and wish him well in retirement.

    Great fight and I have nothing but respect for Bellew. He is a family man who just want the best for his kids so I don't like the hate he gets off fans.
    I was in the Arena last night and it was.a privilege to watch his last fight.
    Well done Bellew. Enjoy your retirement.
    Also Usyk - 1 word 'Monster'

    Round 8 was a thing of beauty....A work of art if you will.

    The timing of that 1-2 for the KO was something to behold

    It was a very satisfying end to his career.

    My feelings towards him are mainly based on the way he carried himself before fights, Cleverly and Haye spring to mind.

    If I was a gobby chav too I would probably have loved him, but as I'm not I didn't.

    He should be pleased, he made some good money and can retire comfortably. However it is satisfying to know that I watched him get KO'd from the comfort of my sofa having not contributed a penny towards his retirement fund, thank you internet!

    Wasn’t devastating?

    Hi literally got his jaw spun, had his promoter push him back in the ring, didn’t know where he was or when he got stopped, and cried nonstop after the KO. All in front of say 20’000 people.

    How is that NOT devastating?
