I hope you get a good opponent. Chilemba was a good one to test yourself against.

This was a Good Opponent for Tony .. He can get another Opponent that has a better record and equal quality etc but know one know's who he is, Tony blows him away within 4 Rounds people will say "ah that opponent was shit". I hope they find someone decent that people either has seen or know's about to show and let people know how good he really is..

Liverpool light-heavyweight hope Tony Bellew now defends his Commonwealth crown against Darlington's Bob Ajisafe at Preston next month (July 3).
Unbeaten Bellew was originally lined up to face South Africa's world-ranked Isaac Chilamba on the night but Chilemba decided to look elsewhere and in comes the respectable but less threatening Ajisafe, a southpaw who was narrowly outscored by another good Liverpool man, Carl Dilks, last year in Prizefighter but bounced back to edge out former Commonwealth champ Ovill McKenzie over eight rounds at Leigh for his best win to date. Ajisafe is hard to read and carries a bit of a dig but he has an inexperienced feel about him at 8-1 (2) and you wonder if this one has come too early.
In contrast, Bellew is proving hard to hold back at 13-0 (9), a former triple ABA champion to boot. He lifted the Commonwealth belt in his last outing in March with a first-round dismissal of Ghana's Atoli Moore and has now stopped five of his last six. Bellew hits hard - too hard, one suspects, for the gutsy Ajisafe.

What a stupid post. Virtually everyone on here welcomes the views of a pro who's had the balls to share the ring with some of these guys. And I won't even dignify the pathetic comparison to Bernie Madoff with an answer.

The lowest of the low, a thieving c*nt whose evil ways have ruined thousands of lives and caused a few people to top themselves. Not a great comparison.

But take it from someone who has seen quite a bit of Bob, Tony - Carl Dilks is right about his heart; he can box a bit too.

This might very well have come too early for him - he still has a lot of improving to do. Still, I know you won't be daft enough to listen to people telling you it's going to be an easy knockover job.

You need to go a little further to import those, normally 8)
