i always thought the silver was like wbc's interim title only you don't get to inherit the
world title if the champ doesn't come back and you have to fight someone for the world title.
wasn't this one announced as an eliminator, though?
either way i had it a draw and bellew talking about winning 9 rounds and disrespecting
the guy the whole fight and after makes me not like him and i hope he loses.
chilemba is very hard to hit, made bellew miss the whole fight, has a better jab than
bellew, and when it came down to boxing at the end chilemba was the better boxer.
it wasn't that he was "awkward" as watt was calling him. he isn't "awkward" at all.
he was better at boxing. "awkward" is unconventional. chilemba is a conventional boxer.

It's british sky broadcasting you dick the commentators have to promote the fighters!

Chilemba got into it too late & allowed bellew to boss the action early even though not much got through nothing was coming back.bellew late on really sagged & looked clueless running out of ideas.

The show was poor tonight! It turnt out a stinker I didn't enjoy any of the fights the crolla fight they went on about being great I thought was a stinker with crolla running.
Stalker was poor.

That's utter bollocks. They are commentators not promoters. They should call it as it is.

Kaiserbill, I agree with you, it was a complete farce.

Quite agree Tomasino.

Hurlock, as alluded to, they're commentators, not promotors.

The broadcast is also not just restricted to Britain.

Think about that for a moment, and the standard of commentary last night. :oops:

The commentary was pish of that there's no doubt.

But Chilemba didn't do enough to earn a draw never mind a win. Got into it 3 or 4 rounds too late. Bellew was pretty poor too. He'll be pissed off if he's made to fight Chilemba again.

What a strange analysis.

Chilemba was landing clean counters everytime Bellew came in. Remove the crowd noise and the commentator cheerleading, and watch it again. Chilemba was slipping Bellews punches quite easily, and countering.

Like almost everybody on the planet, I had Chilemba winning that.

I suspect the crowd disappointment and quietness as they filed out shows they thought their man was lucky too.
