Quit using Bellew being weight drained as an excuse because it's BS. Bellew didn't say anything about being drained. He said he was at his best and did his best and lost to a better fighter with no excuses. There is no weight limit for heavyweights and Bellew weighed 210 pounds for Haye full of food and water and probably weighed the same 210 pounds for Haye on fight night. I am sure Bellew was about 210 pounds on fight night for Usyk also but the difference was he was fighting a much better fighter in his late prime.The idea that once a boxer fights at a certain weight they can never again fight well below that weight is a ****** and false belief. What about Hatton who time after time gained 40 or more pounds between fights and time after time returned to fight at 140 and fight well. Bellew used to fight at 175 FFS. Now all of a sudden he is drained at cruiserweight? GTFOH!

Originally posted by Eff Pandas View PostLOL at easy win. It wasn't easy for him to win the rounds he did win. He was courting danger the whole way as Usyk was timing him & adapting before he turned it on.
And he was on the ropes cuz he gassed out doing what he did to keep a 1st gear Usyk at bay for 3 rounds.
LMFAO easy win. You gotta be a UK guy. Some of you UK guys need to get used to having so many world class fighters these days so you aren't so committed to the guys who are outclassed in fights. If Bellew was some random guy from some random non-UK country most of you guys saying Bellew was so good in this fight woulda just been like "eh he gave Usyk a lil trouble early, but couldn't hang/wasn't THAT good" or similar type thoughts.
You're right though, sometimes fans are biased towards "their" fighter and they need to take a step back to gain a little perspective. In a lot of ways the Bellew Usyk fight was like McGregor/Mayweather, those first 3 rds surprised a lot of people and more credit was given than was perhaps deserved. Check the posts for that fight, people were waxing lyrical about McGregor outboxing Mayweather early and McGregor is a total bum in boxing I don't mind, let fans enjoy the events

LOL all Bellew threw was 1 punch at a time. Like I legit got no clue what fight you watched Saturday at this point. I'm thinking maybe you don't know who Usyk or Bellew actually are based on your take.
I saw Bellew landing more punches with the right hand upstairs & down stairs & moving. Every time I seen him go to the ropes he was letting usyk have success. I think the few punches that landed on Bellew was affecting Bellew & usyk got the stoppage. That's it. Peace.

Originally posted by Rip Chudd View PostThat and the dact I see nobody giving Usyk credit for the constant pressure which contributed to Bellew tiring earlier than he wanted. Do dudes here box at all? They act as if movement and trying to keep someone off of you will do nothing at all to stamina
Ortiz would have won if he didn’t gas
Bellew would have won if he didn’t gas
Damn, I knew going into both fights that Wilder/Usyk was going to gas their opponents. It’s a strategy.
