    They won't do Usyk like that, if he wins wide it will be wide on the cards.

    Usyk by UD.

    I don't see a fit up. Bellew is almost done. Usyk will be earning for years to come. Bellew to give a good account of himself but Usyk to show his class and introduce himself to a new audience ready for some big HW fights next year.

    Bellew by knock out. Usyk will put on a good showing, but Usyk tends to get predictable after a couple of rounds, so I see Bellew eventually figuring Usyk out, timing him, and stopping him. Bellew is a much better puncher and combination puncher than either Gassiev or Briedis.

    You think Bellew punches harder than Gassiev ?

    Bellew is suddenly a great boxer because he put away 1 faded bum?

    Usyk on points in a close one. Early rounds Usyk dominates, but as the fight goes on, I think Bellew will start to land a few. Once he starts landing late on, he'll win a few rounds and have Usyk hanging on for dear life. Usyk has a good enough chin to hold on though I feel. 8-4 Usyk. But no doubt, don't write Tony Bellew off.

    I said Bellew was a better puncher than Gassiev, which he is. But, Bellew does have better one punch power than Gassiev, since Bellew's technique is better and Bellew is better at setting up his punches. Dorticos would've been lucky to go 6-7 rounds with Bellew, since Dorticos unlike Makabu can't punch and is easier to hit. Bellew would've found a place for his left hook and ended Dorticos. Gassiev because his technique is sloppy and his timing isn't that great took 12 rounds to beat Dorticos, who already had been exposed against Miranda, who Bellew destroyed.

    The question I have is what will Bellew bring into the ring at that weight? he'll re hydrate to probably 215 but still, I think he has the power to KO Usyk but catching him could be tough. If he uses a good jab and keeps Usyk on the end of it he'll win. Otherwise its a UD loss for Tony

    Triangle theories don't work in boxing, i don't think Bellew would destroy Dorticos within 6 rounds.

    Bellew is maybe better at setting up his punches and he is a better counterpuncher but Gassiev is the harder puncher and he has very good punching technique, nothing sloppy about it.
