Bellew looked just as weak as Cleverly and he looked uncoordinated.

By round 8 they both looked one good punch away from sleeping.

Imagine David Haye in with either?
Imagine Holyfield in with either?

Come on play the game, these 2 guys are below par, well marketed European fighters.
The division is weak and he just made some noise by beating Clev whether hindsight says the Welshman was overrated or not. Not sure why Cleverly did not throw the right hand but you have to be pretty good at the pro level to stay in a fight with one hand. We all marveled at Loma when he did it Saturday against the Manny doppleganger. At least I did.

Bellew is like a Wepner or Tex Cobb in a heavyweight division with no A-listers. I can see the guy winning a title in this division and he's got that London draw.

Its funny because Cruiser is one of the expansion divisions that actually made sense and yet they went and changed it to 200 pounds in 2003. I remember at the time thinking they did it for James Toney The did it apparently to compensate for the growing heavyweight division but I'm not sure its panned out. Its created two mediocre divisions instead of one.

The whole division causes narcolepsy not just last Saturday.

I kind of like it when regular mugs like him make some good coin with all the coddling division wide going on and this tiny group of primadonnas controlling things.
