    Apologies because I cba timestamping everything but the key takeaways are:

    - Penfold agrees with Django Johnny Nelson that Bellew is “technically finer” than Usyk
    - Penfold says that if you take Usyk’s energy and speed away, there is nothing technically great about him. Ridiculous comment from a boxing coach because his movement and jab alone are far superior than Bellew’s
    - Penfold describes Briedis as a “small geezer” which is not only comical coming from a 5’2” rodent dwarf but is also a worthless claim since Briedis was about half an inch shorter than Usyk and Bellew was about half an inch taller than Usyk in their respective face offs. Moreover, Briedis has greater reach than Bellew. To put the icing on the cake, predictably Penfold claims Bellew is better than Briedis.

    I agree , Bellew is better than Briedis.

    Smarter , better fundamentals/footwork and has better wins. You're only as good as your last win and Bredis has been living off the Marco Hock win for the last year 1/2.. How much mileage can you get from beating the shell of Marco Huck?

    Haye x2 > Marco Huck.

    Both were not special wins but Haye was a million times more broken than Huck. Do you really think Briedis would have failed to put Haye out for the count in the first fight when he was one legged? Briedis, Usyk, Gassiev, Dorticos would have all sparked Haye out. Tony could barely land a clean glove in that first fight.

    The Bellew hype is absolutely unreal. The guy DID absolutely NOTHING for years now, he is a part time boxer who came back for two big paydays vs an old shot slow and broke David Haye and everyone is talking about him as he is some kind of a dark horse or a guy who is a contender or something. Bellew is a solid CW between 10-20 in the ranks but would get put to sleep by every decent HW and will be absolutely humiliated by Usyk next weekend.

    Don't buy the HYPE.

    Briedis would beat Bellew easily.

    It's almost as if to get to the top table of the matchroom inner circle you have to go through an initiation process of proving you are a 100% completely slippery casual.

    Tony caught Haye with a beautiful pull-counter in round 1 of fight #1. The control of range he had from the get-go took a lot of confidence away from Haye.
    Credit has to be given to Bellew for not getting blown away in the early rounds cos a lot of low to mid level guys would have , including Maro Huck.

    Briedis likely would have stopped Haye but he didn't so i can't give him credit for the win. He has Huck , Tony has Haye. . Haye >> Huck.

    Bellew is a better at acting like a boxer than he is at actual boxing. Pretty Ricky Conlan would KTFO Tony Bellew 10 times out of 10. Real life Bellew will get embarrassed in this fight and Penfold knows it. Don't ever forget this clown gets a percentage so selling the fight is his only agenda here.

    Yeah in my OP I was going to add “can’t wait until Usyk rids is of these two clowns” but then remembered that Penfold still has Fowler, Gill and the McDonnells so we’ll still have to hear from this rodent for years to come.

    Never forget how he shamelessly threw Price under the bus after Hammer, refusing to accept not even a fraction of the responsibility for the loss.

    That Haye was a serious concern for Bellews health , in both fights.

    Breidis beating Huck was a foregone conclusion. He did what he was supposed to do , Bellew didn't therefore Haye is a better win.

    Bredis couldn't smash shot to bits Huck , a Mike Prez or a bum called Deslauier. . The left hooks he was catching off Deslauier suggest he's more at risk at getting smashed by Bellew.

    Know one knew how crippled with injuries Haye was until both fight nights. Me personally, I thought even after the first fight, Haye could win the rematch just with the jab and not going for it and getting an injury, but in the return he was worse again, really bad..Huck is a far better win imo

    He's talking about the P4P #1 or #2 who would most likely beat every HW out there also..."nothing special"

    I have a feeling the Haye fights have made Bellew and Coldwell believe Tony is better than what he actually is.

    This fight is going to be a one-sided beat down.

    My prediction is that’s Penfold will throw in the towel because he is at least compassionate and has said already that he wanted Bellew to retire after the first Haye fight.

    He has to convince his fighter and his fans that there is a fight here, but if this was as an independent analysis then what a joke. Breidis is Usyk's best win, and will remain that way.

    "Rodent dwarf" hahahah

    He's just trying to talk up the fight, you can't make a logical case for bellew.
    All he can really do is try to make it a war and hope for the best. Usyk could get cut or clipped with something he doesn't see, you never know in boxing.
