    I heard they will start charging viewers in a blog post a while back so hopefully will remain free for a while.

    Should be a great fight, hopefully Bellew will box and be elusive and pick his shot and not rush a KO and if he does this there is a good chance he will cause an upset.

    Both of them are not in Hopkins league though, and he is 46. Lets see Hopkins can still hold back the sands of time and beat Chad Dawson tonight.

    What a great fight, I did'nt think Bellew had that in him but I think he proved a lot last night to the doubter's, fair play to Cleverly he took the best Bellew could throw at him and took it well, a great fight that has improved the reputation of both fighter's.

    As for the Hopkins V Dawson, well what a complete joke and another sad embarrassing day for boxing that will only put people off boxing.

    It was a cracking fight!

    I think Cleverly dropped down to a brawl at times which suited Bellew but I also think that Cleverly always had the measure of of him - except maybe for a few moments in the 10th! <yikes>

    A British classic, no mistake but I really don't see a re-match happening. Cleverly proved he is a class above Bellew, although Bellew fought well and probably the best performance of his career, Cleverly never looked in trouble and seemed to have loads of energy left after the fight. I think that Clev' wanted to have a tear-up with Bellew to prove he could match that kind of fighter in their own back-yard. He was looking to do it the hard way and he certainly didn't fail!

    Incredible fight, all credit to both fighters but for me, Cleverly always had control of this one - if he did start to lose his way, you got the feeling he had another plan and a few more gears to go through. Bellew gave literally everything he had and just came up short. No shame in it, but he needs to realise he was beaten by a better boxer.

    Great entertainment and 'Box Nation' is looking good! <ok>

    Box nation has gotten very lucky so far with the calibre of fights they have had on.
    even the debacle in the hopkins fight is good for them.

    Credit to Bellew. I am sure he's gained a lot of support. Ritchie Davies did a good job apart from missing a couple of low blows.
    Dave Parris once again had a mystifying card.

    117-112 to Clev was it Reb? He's a joker that Parris fella his scorecard's are wild.

    Yes, I thought the fight was close and Bellew didn't do enough to take it. Cleverly did a lot cleaner work but that said, to suggest Tony only took 3 rounds is just crazy.
