This fight was basically made because they had a barney on twitter. Slag someone off, they respond, have a little back and forth, promoter gauges interest. Bosh! Fight made. Modern matchmaking.
Tony Bellew to fight BJ Flores in Liverpool on October 15 | Boxing News | Sky Sports
It's not often you hear a guy brag about being ranked top 15 for a decade but it'll at least keep Flores off the microphone :-X. Two guys going in different direction and Bellew should do well.
I am beginning to like Bellew.
I have no impression of BJ Flores whatsoever, would have guessed he retired a while ago. Seems like he's been around forever and is too boring to take any notice of, weird choice of opponent.
It is a stay busy type of fight.Quote:

I haven't seen derry Matthews fight for a little while, is he the same fighter as 2/3 or 4 years ago?
Campbell should win but it would be great to see an upset here.
id like to see an upset in some ways, thing is tho if Matthews wins he has 1 maybe 2 more interesting fights left
if Campbell loses theres a long way back and the interest will be less wont it
so id rather see Campbell win in the hope he is in a big fight somewhere in the near future and the interest lasts
Bellew is popular then.
I dont want to say he fluked his way to the title because thats a bit unfair, but Bellew Makabu was a shoot out, a chin or be chinned moment and it was Bellew who had the best moment. Unless he's very selective I dont see Bellew holding onto the belt for long. Flores wont be the man to take it, expect a Bellew UD.
Campbell Matthews could be a cracker, or Campbell could completely outclass him, do what Tommy Coyle did without getting chinned. Matthews loves a right hander down the pipe and 'wrongun' Campbell might find himself getting off the deck to get the job done.
see what pisses me off about Bellew is how he talks like he's the hardest cunt that ever got in the ring and boxes like the powerpuff girls! He says in his lovely Scouse accent "I'm going to put on a VICIOUS,VICIOUS display!" when the fuck has he ever put on a vicious display. the guy is a complete fucking fraud! :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Bit harsh calling Bellew a fraud. He's got some solid wins on his record, went to Canada to get decapitated and wasn't given a hope in hells against Makabu. Understand he winds people up with his gob, especially with the "i'm Julian Jackson" stuff.
Bellew/Campbell PTS double is roughly 8/1.
