    He stepped up against Stevenson, he didn’t duck him, and that was at a disadvantage to him weight wise, he wasn’t a light heavy in a million years. He stepped up against Clev and lost, but then avenged that loss. He won the world title at cruiser, defended it then took David Haye on. I admire him, I really do. Not a world beater but has made the best of what he’s been given.

    Beating a fat out of shape Clev means literally **** all. Didn't even stop him.

    He's fought NO-ONE decent at CW.

    He gets a pat on the back for fighting Haye, but then has it withdraw for his constant shite he talks about that fight.

    He had the chance when Haye got iNjured in round 6 to end it their.But then on it just showed what a poor fighter he is.His Power is overrated Haye took them flush and they didnt have any effect.He looked tired,his body and face was all red he is terrible.If he had Taken out Haye at the end of 6 or 7 he would've got the credit.But the fact it took him nearly 5 rounds to take out a man with one leg is embrassing.Look at him in round 4 when he took flush shots from Haye he looked like a idiot he was stumbling.A Boring Average Fighter who's big mouth gets him on PPV is why i want rid of him.Him and Haye gone=Better for Boxing.

    Once Haye gets a stair lift installed he will be unstoppable

    He’s an idiot because he stumbled from taking flush shots from Haye?

    Pulled out v Wlad, pulled out v Fury, pulled out John Elton and pulled out v Tony Blew.

    Yet people still surprised

    This.

    I like him, but his resume is shocking. You could name 10 CW's that would take him out.

    I like Tony also, I enjoy his insight and commentary on smaller fights before (not AJs).

    This next part may be sound harsh but it's true.

    As far as I'm aware, every major title fight he's won has been for a VACANT title. So hasn't ever beaten a champion for their title.

    He's fought one CW who could be classed as decent (Makabu).

    The second Haye fight would / will be his 3rd PPV event headlining.

    That' just absolutely ridiculous, it' the reason I don't pay for these kind of PPV events anymore. It takes away from more meaningful fights and stops fights that should get made, from being made.

    people are very harsh on Bellew, sure he got beat by Stevenson and Clev, but his last two fights he was supposed to get KO'd brutally and he won both of those, sure, he might not be everyones cup of tea, but the same people slating him now, are the same people who picked Makabu and Haye to demolish him

    I can see haye is desperately trying to get in the mix with AJ and wilder and who would blame him, both are fairly beatable.

    I'd like to see bellew drop back down a fight with Dorticos would be very entertaining
