I know it's part of the game but f**king hell how obvious is it...
Former promoter and friend Coldwell backs Bellew
Stable mates always think stable mates can pull off the upset..
British boxers back british boxers...
Does it bore anyone else....Or is it only me?

And also whenever their boxer loses they always come out with the old "they will come back better and stronger" line.

Well considering Dave is going to meet up with Tony he's hardly going to back Stevenson. It might sour the mood in the camp a bit. Overall, you always try to look for positives for your own man even if you know you're up against it.

if they learn from a loss they will come back better and stronger and doesn't bore me lets support a british boxer fighting for a genuine world title

It would be funny though if Coldwell just went against the grain and "I think he's gonna get sparked to be honest" .... "Oh alright Tony!"

If they lose and if they learn from it - if my aunty had bollocks she would be my uncle.
Why is the undefeated "0" so revered? - why not learn more by losing?

very few top level fighters end there careers with a 0 theres multiple factors to learn from a loss where as if you just kept beating people your either 1 very special ie mayweather or 2 not fighting at the level you should be an happy bowling people over just 1 example david price beaten twice an realised he needed a change and to freshen things up hopefully can come back with a better mindset and i believe he will become a better boxer under booth think he got to where he was on his own ability and smith could take him no further hopefully hes learnt he cant just look for the big shots an has to box a bit more theres a number of aspects to learn from losing

It's more the fact that people these days think you're damaged goods because you've lost the "0" that I find ridiculous.

You are hardly going to say any different if you are his mate in public, secretly his own trainer knows Tony will be punished for 4 rounds and then be completely on his back in the fourth. I may stay up and watch it knowing it won't last the full 36 mins so I can get to bed at a reasonable time

Why's he expected in the ring so fornicating late?! This fight is in Quebec not bloody vegas where you expect those kind of ring entrances!

I would much rather hear a prediction from someone in the business than someone from a reality tv show or soap that knows jack sh!t

thanks mate
I must say I'm not so well up on Stevenson but I saw his last fight (was it the Colombian?? whatshisface?). Not sure what Bellew's best bet is really. Try to box him? Meet fire with fire and try and shock him. The former I guess..
