Bellew in position to face Adonis Stevenson... he cant wait to get his hands on em

[Tam Seddon]

Will be a decent fight, bellew will have to be careful of his power and the same for Stevenson too. If Boone was capable of a knockout then a focused Bellew could as well. I know Stevenson avenged the loss but it does show that he can still be beat. Going off last nights performance Stevenson will be favourtite. Bellew can box though and he's a solid 12 round fighter. I'm on the fence at the moment, but you can make a case for both men winning the fight.

You've got to be joking. Bellew couldn't put a dent in Mirandas chin! An old middleweight who didn't have the greatest chin at middle. Chilemba looked shaky at supermiddle too.

Bellew has good power at British level but nothing on world level.

If Boone is capable of knocking out Stevenson when he has about a million losses on his record, bellew can be capable of doing the same.

Maybe, but Bellews power is hugely over exaggerated, Stevenson looks massive compared to Bellew and I don't think the unjustly named "bomber" can cause him any problem in the power department.

I don't think he will either but I'm saying its not out of the picture, I bet Stevenson didn't expect to get KTFO In the first Boone fight, but it did happen. Similar to Stevenson knocking out Dawson in the first, I don't think he expected to do that. But it's boxing and anything can happen.

Bellew isn't Julian Jackson nor Paulie Malignaggi. He punches hard enough to get respect and can certianly crack a suspect chin.

Bellew-Stevenson is a great match-up, even if it don't last long.

Don't forget that Donovan George went many rounds with Stevenson. Donovan George is a good boxer, but he is not at the elite level. I would probably rate Bellew higher than George. So, I wouldn't count out Bellew because of Stevenson's one punch knockout of Chad Dawson. I like the match up actually.

I thought Donavon George was the guy who pummelled old Chris Byrd, but apparently not heh. Was Stevenson actually hit cleanly in that fight much etc? It is hard to look past getting KO'ed by Darnell Boone for me, I expect Adonis to be a kill or be killed type guy.
If he does hold up for a while he could probably look forward to a big Montreal showdown with Pascal or even Bute if he shows some good form again, those would make a lot of sense. Tavoris Cloud vs Stevenson would likely be a good scrap as well, if Cloud has a shot at beating a world champion it's probably him.

I think Bellow can win this fight, he is hungry and will want it more. It will be a good action packed fight but think Bellow can become world champion.

Don't forget that Darnell Boone also put Andre Ward on the canvas in his only time on the canvas in his professional career. Boone has some craftiness for a journeyman.

From what I gather, Stevenson was rocked multiple times by George, although he put George onto the mat a ridiculous number of times himself, like 5 or something.

I don't think it will b a tear up butt bellew will boxsmart from the out side and stay out of range not go for slugfest, not entertaining but wins a belt for it

I think Bellew has a much better chance against Stevenson than he did Dawson. Bellew can take the role of boxer against Stevenson and basically has to prevent getting bombed out early.

I agree with FENSTER, Bellew has more chance against Stevenson , however that chance is 50/50.

I hate to bring up Cleverly in every Bellew thread, but, if Bellew faces Stevenson, once again Bellew is facing the tougher competition.

That is true and should Bellow win it would set up a cracking rematch.

It's a good point and Warren should hang his head. If Cleverly doesn't leave him you have to wonder about his own desire for any kind of meaningful challenge.

Bollocks. It doesn't get tougher than Tommy Karpency! FACT!
