    His mouth let's him down. He's actually a decent hard working fighter, not the most talented or pleasing on the eye but he's had to work hard to get to where he is .... Like I say he spoils all that with his gob.

    Bellew has achieved a lot in the sport and deserves props for that, but he is nonetheless a overachiever.

    You rate Bellew above Conteh?

    A few months ago I’d tell Bellew to avoid the top cruisers but right now I’d love him against Usyk. A genuine 50-50.

    Heart wise hes on the best. Bellew is a pure fighter even he isnt the best puncher, with the most speed. he has ring iq and heart, and thats one of the best things a fighter can have.

    Lewis, Hamed, Calzaghe, Joshua, Hatton, Froch, Haye, Benn, Eubank, Berg, Buchanan, McGuigan, Wilde, Conteh, Fitzsimmons. That enough for you?

    Well that list off the top of my head shows he'd certainly not be in the top 15.

    It’s a good fight, but 50/50?

    You can’t be basing that on tonight’s win. Yes, it was emotional. Yes, it was dramatic. But Haye was finished long before he stepped in there tonight.

    I like Bellew, and I don’t like Haye, but I’m just trying to be real here.

    Bellew’s a hero to the underdog, and us Brits love that.

    If he was to overcome Usyk or Gassiev I would put him in the top 15 all time Brit. Haye was damaged goods.
