    Bellew surprised everyone with his defeats over Haye, who was seen as a god by many members here for the past few years. Furthermore, he beat other decent opponents in the past he was supposed to lose against.

    Fact is, Bellew is a current elite fighter and maybe Usyk's toughest opponent so far.

    Usyk probably wins every round.

    Bellew knows he is underdog but he is in the fight so anything can go.
    I used to hate bellew when he was on east side boxing calling out everyone and putting down other boxers but every time i put my money on someone else he gets a win

    Bellew is a live dog in the 1st 4 rounds, he isn't stopping Usyk in them rounds but he'll pose problems and hold his own, from then on its all Usyk for a stoppage in 10.

    No. But he'll take his whooping like a man & might land a couple of bombs.

    This. Usyk will put on another masterclass against Bellew.

    Bellew won't be in there against a shot fighter with compromised mobility like he was in his last two fights. :sisi1

    Its very likely to be a competitive shut out. Bellew is going to work Uysk all night but the Ukranians quality will show through in every round. To be fair Uysk isnt exactly feather fisted, if he times a big one well he carries enough to stop Bellew too, i wouldnt rule that out. I give Bellew very small chance, a punchers chance, to pull of the upset.

    Bellew beat a washed up Haye twice and that makes him elite? GTFOH. Usyk is going to coast to an easy 12 round unanimous decision.

    Yes. This is Usyk's first test against a good opponent. Glowacki, Briedis, and Gassiev were forgone conclusions before the matches even started, since all three were tailor-made for Usyk. Bellew isn't one dimensional like Glowacki or Gassiev, and Bellew has handspeed and good combinations unlike Briedis.

    Bellew gets spanked for twelve rounds, or gets stopped late.

    But because Tony has a way to defy the odds, I think he shocks the world and edges 3 rounds. (117-110 Usyk)
