Is Bellew Vs Cleverly really as big a mismatch as everyone is going on?

    cleverly is so open defensively and fights to bellews strengths so i dont think the fight is a mismatch because bellew may land at some point

    I don't rate Bellew too highly but it's not a miss match. I'd expect Cleverly by margins of around 118-110, 117-111, 116-112. Cleverly has looked poor in his last few fights but he will improve.

    I agree with you Liv. Tony can't load up he just has to box to a plan and try lay hands on Clev early without taking loads of damage like Clev's last opponent did because Clev is there to be hit but you just got to stop him having success early.

    My gut feeling is that maybe Bellew stops him but probably 60/40 on a points win.

    So the hindsight will be it was sort of close with Mike Tyson losing.

    Bellew and Cleverly are identical in height and reach.

    Bellew’s boxing philosophy is the jab & hook.

    Cleverly is the weaker hand uppercut.

    It’s all about frequency (how many times you actually do it).

    Manny Pacquiao can turn orthodox in a fight for 2 minutes.
