Definitely. Bellew has said it will be his last. There will be no shame in him losing this bout.jamamb wrote: ↑28 Aug 2018, 08:34 bellew winning would justify it, hed be undisputed lineal world champ vs a guy whose excelled and won pretty much everything in pro, amateur, and wsb boxing.
usyk olympic, world, euro amateur champ
world series of boxing undefeated king (and at super heavy)
undisputed pro wirld champ
its a big deal if bellew wins
No way this takes place at the ExCel Arena.ashedward wrote: ↑28 Aug 2018, 10:06 I think this could end up at the Excell with Hearn saying the o2 isn't really avalible.It has the tennis starting the next day so if it's not the o2 then the Excell is the only venue big enough that could work indoors even through it has been set up badly for pro boxing in the past by all accounts through it was set up well for the Olympics.
you're joking, even without the 'beef' Bellew could reel off about a day's worth of pre-fight cliche-hype in his sleep, 'warrior ready to die in the ring, dese fists/dese kids, believe you me, if I land clean on his chin, this is boxing/anything could happen, just a fat lad from Liverpool, believe you me, Z-Cars, dese fists...'
Absolutely! He speak about how he's hte underdog and how he just wants to get home to his wife Rachel, is her name?Counter-puncher wrote: ↑28 Aug 2018, 10:54you're joking, even without the 'beef' Bellew could reel off about a day's worth of pre-fight cliche-hype in his sleep, 'warrior ready to die in the ring, dese fists/dese kids, believe you me, if I land clean on his chin, this is boxing/anything could happen, just a fat lad from Liverpool, believe you me, Z-Cars, dese fists...'
Bellew won't be thinking 'what if?' When he is lying in his silk sheeted deathbed.
He has definately 'done well'.. SIgning with Hearn, having that mouth, using it, getting Haye to fight him. That was Haye making good money too, so worked both ways.

I remember before the Stevenson fight he said he'd come on here win or lose and TBF to him he posted the next day or so and was pretty humble in defeat, cant remember him ever posting sincekeithmoonhangover wrote: ↑28 Aug 2018, 14:47 Bomber used to post on here. Any chance of a come back?
No chance i don't know a person who would rather watch bellew over fury - wilder.Ruthless-RKO wrote: ↑28 Aug 2018, 07:31 Date has officially been confirmed and location is London. Can only mean O2 Arena.
Hearn doing one over FW here by hopefully taking some PPV buys away from Wilder-Fury, if that's to take place in November.
Even then, Wilder-Fury will be after midnight. Can't see it doing BIG numbers on BT Box Office.
