Tony Bellew .. I know Clev is a rival but ..

cleverly was a lil wild with his shots at times

 

Ive never had chance tom see Bellew yet but Ive been told he's a big puncher. Does anyone know when he fights next and who promotes him?

 

Warren is his promotor. Believe he's fighting on the liverpool bill in march. 12th I think can't remember

 

Fighting at the Echo Arena (I think) on 13th March and he's promoted by Warren.

 

12th march vancant coomnwealth or wba intercontinental belt

 

Throw pelters guys but i firmly believe cleverly will beat bellew convincingly. Way to classy imo and has fought the better fighters stage for stage...

 

Bellew was at ringside wasnt he. hope he did nothing stupid.

i think he would be impressed like the rest of us but quietly spotted a few flaws he and Farnell can start working on. The fight between them will be one of the biggest most important fights of there careers once it happens.

 

Clev got hit far too much on Saturday for my liking. I cant work out whether it's because there were gaps in his defence or he was confident that the Italian couldnt punch so he was willing to take one to give one.

Leave gaps like that against Bellew and his heads getting knocked off. That being said, with all respect, Bellew still has to climb a few rungs of the ladder before he's in with Clev. In 8-12 months I expect Bellew to be in a good position domestically and ready to box (and beat) Clev, but at this moment, he needs a step up in opposition before fighting for British, Commonwealth and Euro honours.

 

Joey vegas would be a good fight for bellew, remember clev was fighting oakey in his 13th fight.

 

I think Bellew has much better punching form, and therefore looks 'classier'.

I'm convinced he's the better 'prospect' and not just because he posts on here.

Cleverly just isn't nuanced enough. People saying how amazing his performance was the other night seem to forget his opponent was coming off a 1 rnd stoppage loss (admittedly to Braehmer, who can bang) and that Clev still managed to get hit a fair bit.

I think Bellew, with Arnie training him, can land the big shots to put Clev into his shell.

 

I think he was confident that he could take the leather, but that really is silly. He isn't good enough yet to be messing around, he should be using best practice every fight, and that means treating light punchers like they've got the right cross of :ennox Lewis and the jab of Wladimir Klitschko. With a points-friendly style like that, he needs to have the mentality that you never get hit.

 

you guys are taling as if Bellew is a perfect fighter. he hasnt been in withanyone near British title level yet.

 

Blimey, Clev wins Euro at 22 and has beaten - Quigley, Vegas, Oakey, Mc Intosh, Fry and still more Bellew smashes his face in threads.

I like Bellew but fook me, he needs to step up big time and get in FW ear for a decent opponent.

 

Bellew is a good fighter, its very early, but by the way people talk on here he is the second coming.

Belts talk and they didnt just fall into Cleverleys lap.
