    He is a bit of a loudmouth, but I like Bellew, brings the excitement and can be quite insightful and coherent when not at a press conference.

    Fought a great fight against Cleverly in a very close fight. I expect him to take this one with a 6th round KO

    He is only riling himself when he goes off. I really like him.

    Maybe a bit over the top but that was a great showing. Not just the finish, not just the dominating performance but the way he picked the shots and doubled up on everything. Really good.

    That was far and away his best performance.

    I thought Mackintosh was going to give him a close fight early on but he looked clueless and just stumbled forward with little head movement.

    He wants a re-match with Cleverly but I don't think he'll get it anytime soon - I don't honestly think he can beat Clev but he really needs to fight other world class opponents before fighting the Welshman again.

    I like Bellew, I thought he was all mouth for a while but he has proved me wrong. Id fancy him to beat Clevery if they had a rematch.

    I think Clev fought the wrong kind of fight last time out - he got involved in a macho-brawl when he should have used his skills.

    Bellew is massively improved but he wouldn't beat Clev in a proper boxing match. <ok>
