    Why can Hearn's fighters get out 2/3 times a year in big fights.....Yet Charlos/Spence, at their primes, are getting one or two uninteresting fights?


    Brook v GGG
    Joshua v Klitschko
    Whyte v Parker
    Bellew v Haye/Usyk
    Andrade v BJS

    For a man who is accused on here of 'ducking' and 'protecting his cash cows', he puts on a hell of a lot of fights where his fighter is the underdog.

    This.

    As for this fight I really wouldn't be shocked if Bellew won. I've given up on doubting Bellew now.

    Yeah same. I don't know how as he should have no chance but somehow it manages to fall into place for him.

    Is Bellew Usyks toughest opponent? I've never seen Usyk fight but he seems to have been taken 12 rounds a few times lately and apparently isn't a puncher. Bellew certainly looks worth a tenner at 6/1

    Breidis was, and behind hat probably either Glowacki or Gassiev.
    Bellew brings a name and a payday.

    I'm still in shock.

    I've just checked now, apparently he's still in hospital.

    Hopefully this will have a good outcome. But there's still a lot of people that aren't aware of this. Jamie Cox has just sent out his condolences on Twitter.

    A wondrous sight,
    Soon come the time,
    That all the posts,
    Are written in rhyme,
    When that's the case,
    You'll find I chose,
    To revert back,
    To simple prose,

    It will be a great event for the boxing world. We need more big fights like this one. Cruiserweights is the division to follow nowadays. No shortscuts, only the best possible match-ups. I hope Usyk will taste heavyweights afterwards. It could be against someone faded like Chisora or something like that.

    Yeah it doesn't sound promising and I haven't been able to find any updates as to what his condition is now.

    Lots of fighters and members of the boxing fraternity paid tributes after hearing about it, like you said, news of it spread everywhere and there was only that post on Facebook his niece wrote denying he'd passed out there to dispute it.
