Kelly is a wonderful skilled boxer , however he doesn't have the power to hold off better fighters.
I think he is done, i cant see him getting much better at 26.

Kelly had 6 fights since this thread was started 4 years ago. Huge respect for taking on a proven world level European champion in his 11th fight but he was clearly lacking the "padding" for this test.
There are great matchups for him to rebuild - Cheeseman, Fowler, Eggington, Kongo, Marku, Benn, etc.
People saying a 26 year old novice is "done, exposed, emabarrassed" after a loss at world level probably don't follow much boxing... or understand it at least.

His wife's dad is worth a lot of money and Kelly has gone into business with him to some extent. Food trucks apparently. He has two fights left on his contract. This is stuff I've been told. I wouldn't swear to any of it being a hundred percent accurate though.
Stuff I'm guessing about. Eddie will give him an easy comeback win and then a decent test to see if his heart is still in it and if he's worth giving another contract to. Personally from the little bits I've seen I don't think he's too bothered anymore. He's discovered he's not Roy Jones and that the world is full of fighters with no name or pedigree who are tough fucking sledding and that's before he gets to world level. Even if he's still a hundred percent committed to the sport I think he's found his level already.

Give you 100/1 odds you can’t find me saying that. Hell, I’ll make it worth your while and give 500/1 odds. This place has history right? Searchyou act like you have never been wrongStill willing to dig deeper on this? Still want to tell others how you know better?
Such a strange comment considering I’ve quite literally directly apologised to you for getting something wrong.
