as a cruiser , how does bellew compare in ability to gas , briedis, glowacki, huck, etc
is he the best, or what?
he looks a pretty good puncher at cruiser, can box a bit too and is a decently sharp puncher. maybe a little shaky still, as makabu did have him down on like the first power shot he landed, and a pretty faded val brudov had him wobbling around

On a par possibly better than Glowacki and Huck. Not as good as Gassiev or Breidis. Didn't he have to pay Breidis step aside money to fight that cabbage Flores?

Briedis and Gassiev seem to be better. Glowacki - I can't say for sure, probably we need to see more big fights of him. Huck could have been a tough call some time ago, but not now.

Would love to see Breidis v Gassiev and/or Breidis v Dorticos. Fukk I'd even like to see Gassiev v Dorticos again.

Glowacki 100% better at the time.
His win over Huck at that time is levels above anything Bellew has done.

Yes that's why Breidis fought Vallily on the undercard

no one saying he's his best opponent
... if he brings the speed and power he brought to his last fight he must have a fair chance, no?

Bellew has barely spent any time at 200 in order to assess him properly.
He got his trinket, then hot footed it to HW to expose the comebacking David Haye for the fraud that he was.
