Comments Thread For: Bellew: I Will Get To Usyk, Break His Heart & Take His Soul!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Tony Bellew's belief is what the former cruiserweight champion is certain separates him from anyone Oleksandr Usyk previously has fought. That self-assurance helped Bellew ignore intense skepticism and stop David Haye twice in their heavyweight fights. Upsetting Usyk in their 12-round cruiserweight title fight likely will be more difficult than beating Haye because, unlike Haye, Usyk is in his prime, has been active and is a better overall fighter than Haye even when Haye was young.

I feel, I very feel Usyk!

Can Bellew retire after this if there’s rematch clause?

[P4Pdunny]

good mentality as usual but it won't be enough

You couldn't even beat Adonis Creed. Fk up.

Usyk is obviously much more skilled but he's also a bit feather fisted and that's at cruiserweight. Usyk will win well clear on points for me but I hope Bellew does it.

Haye when he was a cruiserweight could punch hard and carried that up, Usyk is going to have even less fire power at heavyweight relatively which doesn't bode well against a Joshua.

Calling it now, bellew in the 10th.

Bellew talks a fight up better than anyone save maybe Tyson Fury. Since he moved up from 175 his performances have been matching the pre-fight banter as well, increasingly so fight by fight.
I can't help but think that Usyk is a bridge too far for him though and Bellew will do well to win more than 2-3 rounds let alone the fight. Usyk has already proved he can beat big punchers at CW simply through movement and shot-selection.
I get the feeling this'll follow a similar pattern to the WBSS final vs Gassiev, but hope Bellew proves me wrong for the 4th time and wins this to retire on a high.
The only other match up I'd like to see Bellew in is if Ward came out of retirement. However for that to happen Bellew would have to still be holding the belts so would have to beat Usyk twice - which is about as likely as Eddie Hearn and Tyson Fury singing Endless love in a live duet in place of the Anthems before a Joshua-Wilder unification.

I like Bellew but i honestly think he's bitten off more than his can chew here. Usyk is simply levels above him, and i only see a punchers chance for the bomber.

Bellew is getting carried away by his 2 wins over Hate who was a shadow of himself. Usyk is one of those fighters that are what Legends are made of will be one of the all time greats. Adonis Stevenson exposed Bellew and Usyk is a class above him. Usyk stops Bellew between rounds 8- 10.
