Nathan Cleverly vs. Tony Bellew & James DeGale vs. Piotr Wilczewski RBR

Round 10

Bellew jabs. Cleverly circles, shooting his jab up from the hip. Nice right hand lead by Cleverly from outside. Cleverly is rolling his fists around at his waist, and staring Bellew down. Bellew comes in with a lead right of his own and touches him. They trade jabs, with Cleverly leaning back and hopping up on the bridge of his feet with his heels bouncing off the canvas. Bellew comes forward, cautiously. Cleverly just watches, ducked low on the outside while slowly circling. Little happening now. Bellew rushes in and hooks at the body. BIG RIGHT HAND BY BELLEW, FLUSH ON THE JAW!! CLEVERLY IS HURT!! ANOTHER RIGHT!!!! CLEVERLY SLIPS SHOTS AGAINST THE ROPES AND HOLD!!! Cleverly bounces outside and gets his jab going, showing his head is clear. Bellew jabs at him, doubled. Jab to the guard by Cleverly. Bellew now hops around with a spring in his own step, circling on the outside and watching Cleverly. Straight and hard-thrusting jab by Bellew.

10-9 Bellew

97-93 Bellew

 

Close round? :blood

Bellew won even without that moment where he twice tagged Cleverly against the ropes with rights.

Those two shots would have stolen a close round for him anyway.

Close round? :huh
