Because Huck would ruin him. Be interesting to see who Eddie lines up for Tony before he faces the elite there.
No reason why Bellew couldn't beat him IMO. Tough fight but I'd have it as a 50-50 especially in Liverpool. A lot harder fights at Cruiserweight for Bellew to steer clear of.
He knows that Usyk would light him up. Personally I think Drozd, Glowacki, Lebedev all take him out in style too.
Huck fought Glowacki in the states and has pretty much faced the who's who of the CW division. And guess what? Bellew himself has had a grand total of ONE fight outside of the UK. Quit posting bile you Brittard.
A real thick set world class cruiser gives Bellew all kinds of trouble. A top 5 five destroys him. Get the Haye pay day for the family.
I only posed the question because bellew isn't shy about proclaiming "I am the best cruiserweight in the world " never any mention of Huck let alone 3 or 4 others that in my opinion destroy him. It's as if Tony is being sold to the uneducated bandwagon fan
The same Matchroom Marketing junk for over 3 years with Joshua as well - another World Champion about to have another disgraceful defence against Molina or Price.
