    I know it's a big 'IF' however if the impossible happens and Bellew beats Usyk then how does Bellew rate as a fighter. I know a lot of people do not like him or rate him as a fighter but if he wins then can we say he is one of the best British fighters ever produced or one of the best in this era or one of the best lb for lb fighters in the world or just a fighter who got lucky.
    I personally think he has been a good fighter so far but if he beats Usyk then he can be classed best lb for lb fighter in England at the moment.

    Don't worry, there's no way he's winning.

    Usyk is a masterful boxer but he does get hit and Bellew can bang if he wins I think he’ll retire

    I think Bellew has a small chance of winning. He is bigger, has a harder punch and boxes intelligently. If he wins then I am sure everyone will have some excuse ready just because he is hated so much.
    And I won't need video footage as I will be there at the arena!

    Bellew is not bigger than Usyk. They are the same height but Usyk has the bigger frame and longer reach. Usyk is also lean at the weight with no puppy fat on him.

    Probs has a 10% chance of winning tops. I know this is what most people were saying before the first Haye fight but it's no shame being outclassed by Usyk, who would probably beat any HW also.

    I couldn't bear it if he won, its bad enough listening to him now.

    Anyway he won't, the serial killer will knock his butt out!!

    I would say very high, but it will be tainted in my opinion by the zero defences of his belts.
