That's the point. Against a 37 year old Brudov, that's not a good sign, really.

That's the one I would avoid most of all if I were advising Tony.

Neil Dawson would hit too hard with both hands for Bellew; Dawson has area level experience and European level power.

Krzysztof Wlodarczyk is the WBC champ and the WBC have already installed Tony at #6 in their rankings.
Incredibly, Silvio Branco is one slot ahead of him. Branco must be almost fifty by now ?! An eliminator against Branco would be an easy night's work for Tony.
Wlod would be too strong and too tough for Tony.

No doubt he will sell it as a world class masterclass just like McKenzie II
It's been fairly entertaining by Bellew's standards.

I wouldn't argue with that.
To answer my own question, Branco turns 48 later this year. 19 years since Richie Woodhall stopped him in 9 rounds.

The reffing is normally premature but in that case the dozey pudendum was still counting when the guy was clearly finished!

Just wait for him to spout crap about being a world beater at this weight. He is in the kell brook school of boring.

Hernandez is the chinniest champion, so that's who Bellew should go after.

He only has to be handled and steered into the right opportunities. Worse fighters have managed it. He's not lost his power. I am not saying he is nailed on to succeed, but it will be interesting to see him have a go.

I thought Bellew looked great tonight,fair enough he had a terrible 7th and i had him losing the last up until the KO but that was more to do with him coasting
Great way to mark your welcome to the division and a deserved ending IMO

Can't argue with your logic but what would happen to him as he came in looking to hit the chin?
