    I love you Twenty, you're one of my favourite posters on here. But it's this line in bold which is bothering me. Bellew has lost twice and drew once. All of them against fighters worse than Usyk. He was only a significant underdog against Haye, which has its own caveats. He was against Stevenson too but he got blasted out of there. So he was rightly written off in that fight. It's just a narrative required for PPV and the fact that Hearn's poll hs something like 50 percent picking a Bellew KO is testament to that.

    Usyk has had one close fight, which he still won. against a guy I would happily back against Bellew. That's it.

    In the nicest way possible, I hope you are miserable on Saturday night and I hope that my celebrations end up with a cardiac arrest and a STI x

    No - but if you’re carrying significant fat when making weight then you’re not fulfilling your physical potential imo, there is more to give...

    Thanks mate. Likewise.

    You’re right about Bellew, ordinarily I would be trying to convince someone as daft as i’m being right now that they’re talking out their backside. I’ll be back to my senses at around 11pm Saturday night. Until then, War Bellew!! Haha.

    Truth of the matter is if whyte beats Del Boy he fights ppv vs Joshua and if he beats Joshua he would be a ppv star and you will be having kittens haha

    How could you deal with that scenario

    true the Molina, Martin ,Breazeale, Whyte fights shouldn't have been. Only the Klitschko, Povetkin, Parker ( cause it was a unification were valid)

    and yeah it should really only be fights like Froch vs Kessler, Joshua vs Klitschko type fights.

    This is Dullian Whyte's 3rd slice of PPV Pie - he is already Dullian Whyte PPV following in the footsteps of some of the great PPV stars of the past including Paul McCloskey, Kell Batty Brook, Audrey Harrision, Scott Quigg, Lee Selby Conman McGregor and not forgetting the Queen of PPV cash - Daveed 'One Leg/Sore Toe' Haye.

    The PPV mugths keep lining up for a rogering.

    If you predict right then you predict right what difference does it make? On paper Bellew doesn’t stand a chance but I too ‘have a feeling’ that Bellew is somehow going to pull this off and I couldn’t really give you a reason why in this particular fight. Sometimes you just get a gut instinct on s fight.

    I'm going with the bomber.

    It's just a feeling, everything says he should be outclassed and perhaps he probably will be I just have this strange feeling he's going to stop usyk late after usyk is ahead on points.

    I use to really dislike bellew now I like him, he's British and I'm behind him.

    Come on Tony la

    The more PPVs the better mate - makes no difference to me financially as never bought one and never will.

    The more people like Pudding Whyte is on PPV, the quicker the PPV Mugths wake up mate
