    I just really cant see how this fight will ever go past round 2..i dont see how bellew actually thinks he has a chance, when he has been droped to the canvas twice by the biggest puncher he has faced to date, which is oville mckenzie..who is no where near the same level of strenths as adonis...
    Bellew was also beaten by cleverly in what was a close match up, but he still lost a MD....was not able to rock cleverly at all. I see Bellew at a similar skill level as cleverly but just under him...

    so in my opinion, stevenson-bellew should be on a similar skill lever as cleverly-kovalev.. complete different styles, but same basic skilled opponents...

    i see this fight a round 2 ko...maybe round 3 if were lucky enough to see that much of the fight...i think stevenson will make short work of bellew, who has never fought outside of GB, and who has never faced world level opposition, and who his best names on him resume are mckenzie, miranda, and chilemba.....and cleverly but he lost a MD..

    this is litterally a keep busy fight for adonis, its also a way to get rid of him mandatory nice and early, and use one of the hbo fights under contract, leaving only 1 hbo fight left under contract....which i know for a fact will not be kovalev...not for another year

    Bhop - stevenson will be made early 2014...mark my words...i dont care if hbo and sho got a war...this fight will be made i garantee it..$ talks

    Bellew will win.
    When have you known Bellew to lose to a fighter at Boones level?

    When have you known Bellew to win at Dawson/Cloud level?, I hope Bellew does well and good luck to him but Stevenson is the favorite, Power, speed, counters are going to be too much. TKO win for Superman.

    I favor Stevenson in this one but it wouldnt shock me if Bellew wins.

    This will be Superman's 10th stoppage in a row.

    Either the quick highlight-reel kind or the slow excruciating kind, if Bellew can weather the storm.

    BTW, I'm not sure this is part of HBO's deal. They have a veto right. If not, you might as well be fighting scrubs for good $.

    I think Stevenson will take his time and KO Bellew in the 3rd, gearing up for Kolavev in the Spring, which will be one of the most anticipated fights for real fans in many many years.

    Bellew fights very negatively against punchers, that slow jabs gonna get the **** countered out of it. Tony gets pimped around the 6th

    Whats the Dawson/Cloud level? One of those fighters best win is over a 47 year old and the other lost to that same fighter. Im not knocking any of them, but that is the case. Bellew beat Chilemba and I wouldnt be shocked if Chilemba is of a similar level to Cloud (That is just me guessing)

    Bellew can box, a bit. He has the the length and range to jab Stevenson, but for me lacks the power to keep him honest.

    I think it lasts longer than some seem to think, but in the end Adonis' power and speed put him away. He simply gets overpowered.

    I'd say he crumples to a TKO about 6-7.

    I'm a Stevenson hater, but I think Stevenson
    walks right through Bellew without much problem. Bellew
    should go for someone like Shumenov if he wants to usurp a
    belt. He wont get it from Adonis, Bernard or Kovalev
