Bellew couldn't do anything to a bloke fighting with one hand. Overall I thought the PPV was terrible. Would have been a decent Sky Sports card but not box office :shame:.

Sky sports just tweeted that Cleverly didn't have a hand injury. So why the fvck wasn't he throwing the right hand?? Tactical decision?!? Bah, I'm going to bed, this isn't even worth my fvcking disappointment.

Apparently Sky's reporter went into the Cleverly's changing room backstage and they reported no problem with hand..... Nobody seemed to believe it though.

That just shows what a shit tactical decision it was - the fact that everyone thought something had happened to his hand says it all.

His strength is his combinations, his engine throwing multiple COMBINATIONS!

I bet it would, Sky will just build it up even more and mugs will turn up and buy the PPV again. According to the commentators, it "really caught fire", in the last four rounds. I thought it was shocking. Bellew throwing slow punches against someone who can barely stand up.

Looks like the Kovalev loss ended Cleverly as an ambitious fighter. He's all about the money now.

Yeah, good luck with that mate. I believe Sky's unofficial corporate mantra is "Caveat emptor".

Not a close fight IMO,but im not arsed,i just dont want to see that again
I just can't see how you could score it by 9 rounds to Bellew. Cleverly didn't land much other than jabs, but apart from the last 4 rounds, Bellew hardly landed anything, even in 9 and 12 he didn't land much. Cleverly's defence alone won him rounds for me.
Just the lack of anything but a poor pawing jab swayed me,i was impressed with Cleverly's defence as i said but as the first 8 rounds were so similar i suppose thats why my card is wide then with Bellews strong finish with Nathans workrate dropped to zero cemented it

I tipped Cleverly but his hand clearly must be hurt,i seen none of they slappy combinations
Preferred Cleverly's jab to Bellew landing nothing. Even in the last 4 rounds when Bellew supposedly came on strong I had Cleverly winning 2 of them, covered up well on the ropes and landed some good counters, Bellew wasn't landing anything clean, but Halling and Watt were giving him the rounds purely because he showed some attacking intent IMO, rather than him actually punching Cleverly.

No one really comes out of that fight with any credit to be honest. Cleverly was as it turns out a blown up LHW. Bellew and his self proclaimed power at CW, couldn't stop a one armed man even with 12 minutes of punches at a static target.

Don't think Bellew can beat any of the belt holders at CW. Would be interesting to see him in with Ola Afolabi though.
