Are we talking Hollywood Bellew? Or the guy who came up the hard way before the money and the game got to his head? Cause I think the young, hungry Bellew would absolutely have his way with Canelo at the higher weights. The movie star version I'm not so sure...
The Bivol fight put paid to the conversation of Canelo beating ANY world level cruiserweight. Not only was Bivol very good in the fight, Canelo's flaws were exposed and clearly he hasn't got the power or speed to trouble live dogs at LHW or CW
Tony Bellew just wants to be left alone to enjoy life with his family and his mates. He doesn't want all of this talk about whether he would beat Canelo. Leave Tony alone.
I think Bellew tools Canelo fairly easily at Cruiser. He KO'd potential future opponent Makabu in 3 rounds. Canelo would be like a sloth at Cruiser.
