Chilemba beat Bellew in the first fight but was robbed.

I thought he deserved a win over Alvarez too.

I've heard that yes, but the fact they were tight fights suggests there is a big gulf between him and Kovalev. Still, not like there are any other hot tickets at 175 willing to fight Kovalev next, so this is probably as good as it was going to get.
