    :think Week away one of biggest domestic fights for years. Has everyone fell asleep or is it simply the fact no one knows it's on TV.........

    He seriously should have put this on SKY.

    P.S Anyone know if weigh-in be on the channel live?

    It's because it's such a mismatch, nobody cares. ;-)

    ...and I don't think it's even the biggest domestic fight this year.

    Im leaning towards a Bellew stoppage. I can see Cleverly being reckless and walking on to something big. I think he get's stopped on his feet around the 8th or 9th round.

    If you rewatch McIntosh-Clev and imagine that Danny is actually Tony then you will see how this fight will go.

    Clev will outwork Tony from the outset, and try and step it up in the mid rounds and force the stoppage. I think Clev will be slightly more tentative than we're used to seeing from him, but he rarely takes a backwards step so it will be interesting.

    I'd like to see Tony try and push Clev back and see how Clev deals with being forced onto the back foot, but realistically think that it's going to be phone box type tear up.

    im siding with that mate, just think bomber can catch clev with a belter at some stage....

    we knw clev likes to trade, but with tony it could be his downfall.

    Clev trades and he gets stopped. He's been shaken by non punchers occasionally.

    Clev by UD all day long....

    Unless clev is stupid enough to get involved in a war, in which case i favour bomber. However, i think clev will box clever picking up the rounds as he goes.

    I dont get why bellew is seen as sucha big puncher. Too many people are taking into account his reputation as an amature as a heavy puncher. As a pro he has a decent ko% but against weak opposition.
    My prediction is eaither cleverly UD or late tko

    When an ATG trainer tells me he's one of the biggest hitters he's seen in the gym I tend to not argue :good
