Tony Bellew-Ilunga Makabu - Sunday/Sky 6pm.

[Fenster]

From when it was made I strongly fancied Makabu to chin Bellew.

However, I can see Bellew doing well. If he can make it "boring," keeps Makabu on the end of his jab and takes it deep he has a chance. Problem is Bellew is slow and the last time he fought a big punching quick handed southpaw he was splattered. If Makabu gets inside it's goodnight vienna.

Makabu KO - 6/5

The undercard features every fighter in Liverpool

David Price
Stephen Smith

I fancy Bellew here. Keep him at distance and its an easy nights work for him.

I'm probably going to be getting drunk during this card, with no work on Monday, so looking forward to an interesting night.

Personally, I reckon Bellew has the adaptability to change his style, and will do so here to nullify Makabu for the most of the fight. That should be enough for Bellew to grab the win.

Makabu will knock out Bellew

Surprised this is not box office.

[Tam Seddon]

Got my ticket with 10 of my lads, fingers crossed Bellew gets chined!!

Why is this on Sunday? Bank holiday Monday coming up?

I know you can't stand him , nor do I , but I wouldn't put 10 fucking pence in his pocket by going to watch him, even if I wanted him to lose! I suppose there's a few other guys from your neck of the woods on the bill that you like though. Have a good night and fingers crossed for the right result! 😉

Out of tonight's fights I think I am most interested in David Price's, he needs to make a massive statement to come away with any credibility at all.

He must know that this is the last chance saloon for his career.

I don't know who he is fighting but I'm guessing it's an absolute bum

David Price weighed in at 273 pounds for this fight apparently, seems like a desperate move to try and change something. I'm sure his opponent is complete rubbish, but how is that extra weight going to help him?

The guy who beat him last time has failed a drugs test though, might give him a little more credibility.

The card does have the look of a parade of local favourites until you get up towards the last two or three fights. Still, nothing better to do with the day off tomorrow!

If you watch his last fight, it's hard to come to that conclusion imo. Teper didn't even look like he was in shape and barely had to expend any energy. A cheats a cheat, but Price looked like he would have been sparked out by anyone decent that night.

[superheavyrhun]

I'm not trying to defend Price's performance there, he looked terrible, but just pointing out the drugs cheat issue. Unless he sorts out that glass jaw, he won't be going anywhere in terms of international level boxing, but might still trouble British title scene.

[Batman]

Drugs aside in his last fight Prices jab was the worst most laziest looking jab I've seen in the last few years he just looked shot.

At one point I thought he could go all the way but that first defeat just completely derailed him, I'm outside on the piss at the minute so I'm just hoping I can drag myself away to watch the while card, I've got a feeling I'll be watching it back tomorrow

It was the left hook that finished him off.
