Did Johnny Nelson honestly say this?

    After last night he may have a chance against 'Bad' Chad. I like Bellew but dont see him beating and legit champion.

    I don't see what the issue is with that statement anyway. Dawson is an excellent fighter, but lets not over-rate him or under-rate Bellew.

    Tony made very easy work of Miranda and went close with Cleverly. I see Bellew as world-class, he just needs his opportunity.

    Dawson is a couple of steps up at this point, but down the line who knows. I think Pascal and Cloud would be ideal for Bellew right now. Big hitters like Miranda, but Bellew could outbox them. I think he would grind Pascal down to a late stoppage.

    I think your overating Bellew.

    He's a very good boxer, but what about his performances so far makes you think he'd not only beat Pascal, but stop him?

    Bellew needs 2 more fights against x2 top 15 LHW. One a southpaw (Campillo) and one a decent boxer puncher. Pass that then go for a champ.

    the thing is Miranda best moments came a middleweight and i would be disgusted if Cleverly defended his title against him just dont really see how Bellew has stepped since he got beat by Cleverly but Bellew has defo fought more legit people than Cleverly since the fight
