The official Cleverly v Bellew in play discussion thread

[Rexob]

Yawn

[Monte Fisto]

3-2 Bellew after 5. Surely has to catch alight at some point, could then be decisive, otherwise will be a split

[Boxerbeetle]

Actually this is a pile of sh!t.

[tobyh5]

Commentators seemed surprised by the lack of sharpness and variety and that they are both tired. I wouldn't be, they are not elite fighters and are in a manufactured domestic fight.

[expe]

48-47 Cleverly

Not great and neither fighters landing anything big, but while it's a battle of the jabs, Cleverly's going to take it.

[Tangerine]

clevs just 3-2 clev.agree theres a long way to go yet pacing it.

[wesley05]

X2 con men ?????

[Rexob]

Has Cleverly even thrown a right hand yet?

[Sklar]

Tricky to score these rounds but for me Cleverly is fighting scared and not doing enough. Dull.

9-10 Bellew

46-49 Bellew

[Cyclops]

Perhaps these two gentlemen could actually have a fight seeing as they are in a boxing ring?

This is what Ricky Hatton used to refer to as "a tickling contest"

[BigGar]

Very tough to score. Not high on quality though. I'm watching this and am disgusted with myself in that I gave Cleverly a shot against Kovalev!!

[adamwillan]

His right hand must be out of action[*]

[Monte Fisto]

One guys been eating mash and the other has been eating sneaky maltesers.

[lefty]

Thank god i didnt pay for this lol

[mrbishi]

I missed the 3rd round but this absolute garbage. Cleverly up by a few.

[Coco]

Don't blink or you might miss it! This is gonna be one of the most explosive fights in history

[handsofstone]

Cleverly clearly the better boxer why is he giving these rounds away

[Glass Joe]

this is basically one of them exhibition sparring matches you get on a none tv show

[flynn25]

4-2 clev

[stujones]

Clev has got to have a problem with the right hand, and Bellew is just poor.

[expe]

Cleverly isn't throwing the right hand, but when Bellew throws it, he isn't landing, so it makes little difference when it comes to the scoring.

[JC]

Both look very flat, like sparring after a long session.

[Sklar]

All hype. Cleverly is much the better boxer but doesn't believe it.

Cleverly 10-9

56 - 58 Bellew

[Tangerine]

4-2 clev.tony bellew is fighting like a tw@t and is allowing himself to be beaten with a touching jab.HE LOOKS FOOKED ASWELL.

[reggaereggae]

It's an interesting fight.... But feel gutted for anyone whompaid £16.95.... Shameful. Although obviously Barry Hearn would 'not miss this bill for the world'.

Of course you wouldn't Barry
