    Who? Brudov?
    a couple of low ranked warm up fighters? Who he didnt look great against.

    Did wobble Masternak late but he misses so often it needs work.

    Can't stand Bellew, he built up Bellew Vs Cleverly II to such extremes that i heard Sky employees were going to be forced to watch the full fight if they ever asked for a pay rise in the next 10 years.

    To be fair to bellew the only time he came up short was against Stevenson. I believe he won against clev 1st time around. I think he looked better at LH but he's not going to win a world title at that weight.

    I feel you are right, but he also came up short compared to expectation and potential against lesser opponents in plenty of fights before the Clev 1 fight. Previous posters have put it accurately, he's fringe world. Intriguing fight though and I hope he performs and it's a great fight - a treat to have a card on a Sunday! :bbb

    If it goes the distance, I can see him getting the nod but I think he'll get chinned

    Yes mate great to have boxing on a Sunday you say he didn't preform before the 1st clev fight compared to expectations, but I believe he was a different boxer before that fight, he shocked us all when he came out against clev with his new found boxing skills, before that fight he could only bang. Since that fight we found out he can box behind a jab. If he sets the pace, boxes smart for the first 6 rounds he can take him out late on or get a points win
