DAZN: Oleksandr Oleksandrovych Usyk vs. Anthony Lewis Bellew & Anthony Crolla vs. Daud Yordan RBR.

No he's not, the first 3 were very close, and like @Mr Icaman said, most were so shocked that Bellew was hangig inthere with a guy everyone thought would dominant him from the opening bell, they tended to give him moe credit than he actually deserved. Dwyer said there was an argument to be made for both men essentially, which means he wasn't being biased, I think the people who say there isn't an argument are the ones with the closed minds and the biased ones. I scored the first three for Bellew, so this undermines my card a little, but the reality is... they were razor close rounds, hence why I said they were, and close rounds, can go either way sometimes, and this match is one of those cases.

 

People have very short memories, go back and watch the first four rounds of Stevenson-Bellew. Tony took the first, the second was close to even, it could go either way, the 3rd Stevenson took, but the first half of it was competitive, the Bellew clearly dropped Adonis in the 4th, that should have been a 10-8 round. Watch how defensively gifted Tony is early against Stevenson, granted Tony isn't being as brave against Adonis, because he looked like a scarecrow he was so drained, and Stevenson of course had the reputation for being a murderous puncher, because he is. Regardless, KO's cause amnesia, well go and get back your memories and watch the first four again. A drained Bellew performed about as well here drained half to death against a P4P KO artist as he did when he was fully healthy against Usyk. Also to those who question his chin, look how many bombs he took in the 3rd and 4th.
