I agree with the decision. If anything, I wouldn't have been surprised if Chilemba had pinched it to be honest.
Bellew was more aggressive, but he was missing and being countered right from the start. It's certainly not the robbery Sky are making it out to be.
Yes, easy, he did all the work in the second half of the fight and had 1 or 2 in the first half.Quote:

There you go, John Conteh and Johnny Nelson bith think it was a draw as well. Bellew is too lazy. Hes not world class. Hes already had his chance against Cleverly.
I didn't see it that way, Bellew by 3 rounds at least!
Bellew hit alot of air in the last 5 rounds. I thought Tony managed to sneak a win 115-113 but I'm not gunna argue with a draw. Both fighters fought like shit, but if Chilemba had put an effort in the first 5 rounds he'd have won that easy.
I thought that! He said it a few times too, as if that should have given him some free points.Quote:

I think he won by a bit to be honest, he looked like he gassed a little though in the third quarter of the fight, but even then, there weren't that many other rounds for Chillembu
I wish Sky would just put Jim Watt out to pasture. He just can't read a fight at all. Even in the Crolla-Mathews fight, in the 9th round I think it was, he said he preferred Mathews work when Crolla outlanded and clearly won the round.
Cleverly would not have let his workrate drop enough to lose him a fight. Bellew drops off in rounds and not just tonight. Ross is right,he thinks he is a massive puncher and he just isn't. Having said that chillemba was so shocking in the first half of the fight he never deserved a win. Neither are world class, draw a tad unfair but no robbery.
Chilemba is clearly the better and more gifted fighter. If he had started faster he could have won that easily.Quote:

Well I slightly disagree with this. I thought Cleverly would murder Bellew and Tony proved in that fight he can box as well as brawl. In his last few fights though, he has seemed to slip into the habit of swinging for a hil mary with every punch. He can box, he just seems to have given up on it.Quote:

I thought Bellew won pretty clear, but it was a sh*t fight
See you guys in 3 hours I guess for Rios/ Alvarado II

They are unreal. I think Adam Smith is even worse, so biased towards British fighters and just hasn't got a clueQuote:
