I see he's fighting Fry on the Smith v Dodson card.Good step up for him.Cant see him being put in with cleverly anytime soon.Warren will wait till they are both at world level before pairing them.He has great power but I still feel cleverly would be too fast
I agree that it will be a while before these fighters get it on... It won't be until there is a decent strap on the line and it makes cash common sense for both fighters...:yep I think that when they meet Tony Bellew will KO Cleverley. Bellew has to much power and when he hits people stay hit... Cleverley has not mixed it with a banger like Bellew as they ain't to many about...:bbb Many are underestimating Bellew's boxing skills too...Tony has excellent boxing skills, a great engine and can bang, he is in a great camp with a great team spirit and has a great trainer in Arnie...:deal I have said on this site for a longtime that Tony Bellew will clean up his division and he will...:yep
It's a step up he needs to take though, being older than most of the less experienced guys. He was a good amateur, so there's no need to fight clowns, and having already put away a couple of half decent guys this is a logical step. I wouldn't bother with the likes of Dilks, Ajisafe etc, go for the jugular.
Beeston, I must congratulate you on your avatar... Santa spoiled you this year... I must say that it totally states the obvious... I am sure that my pal Dan will love it... I agree with your post on going for the jugular, I think that the promoter will manage the fights carefully until the time is right... I would like to see a fight with Oakey but it would involve 2 promoters who may not do business together...:think
Yeah I'm sure he will..... expecting a text any minute :yep I assume you will be cheering us on next Sunday....... tried to get a ticket but had absolutely no chance of getting them :-( Oakey would be a good fight, he won't just go over when Tony goes within a yard of him..... but hell will probably freeze over before those two work together :think
I have managed to get a ticket for the CC SF 2nd Leg, hopefully we can get a result at home and try to keep them out at their place...I will be cheering you on next week for sure. We have got Boro away, I am going there too... We have booked our flights for Froch v Kessler, do you fancy it...? I think you might be right with the Oakey v Bellew fight... If it happens I see Tony winning by KO at whatever time he wants too...:bbb
Good man, looking forward to it already. Have you put the details of where your staying etc on the 'ho's going to Copenhagen' thread?
We ain't booked our digs yet... Probably do it in Jan...:good Probably going to do Khan v Malinaggi in March in NYC, just need some info on that before we book anything...:yep
£130 from Mcr... Friday to Sunday, really good flight times as well with no mega early start...11am going out and leave Copehagen on the Sunday at 530pm... There are two downsides for me on this trip... We play Manure United at home whilst I am at this fight and it is the weekend before the London Marathon so it will be an alcohol free trip... Not to arsed about the ale to be honest... I can take it or leave it...:yep
Looking forward to seeing Tony make a statement. My favourite Scouse boxer since Shea Neary (I wonder why ).
