Re: Boxing 2011
I've been hearing rumblings from Bellew's training camp that he is in top form. Boxing forums are buzzing that Bellew might actually pull of the shock and stop Cleverly.
I think Bellew has a great chance. I've always thought Cleverly has had an easy ride to the top. Yes he's held the British, Commonwealth, European and WBO light heavyweight titles but he has never beat the reigning champion to get the belt. He's always faced a top 10 contender for each belt after the champion vacated. He's also only stopped 11 of his 22 opponents.
Cleverly has never been down, Bellew has been down 4 times and comeback and won. Bellew has the experience of going down and coming back to fight on. I think Cleverly might have a tough night ahead of him if his chin isn't made of granite.
My head says Cleverly on points, my heart says Bellew by K.O. Eitherway it'll be a good fight, one I won't be placing a bet on.
