He can't beat AJ or wilder and I would include fury in that too. I think Gassiev is too strong and powerful for him too, but I give him a real chance against Usyk. The way Breidis pushed him close makes me believe that Bellew can beat him.
Bellew has a terrific jab to work off of so he could keep Usyk off balance and away from his combinations but in the end I think Usyk is just too good. I actually think Gassiev offers Bellew a better chance.

I don’t know about Bellew v AJ, how much skill has AJ got?!
Haye's achilles went again but props to both men not making excuses. Bellew is a smart boxer (something I learned after the first Cleverly fight) with tonnes of heart but he lacks the quality to beat Usyk, Gassiev, AJ and even Wilder.

I bet Bellew woke up this morning unable to believe his luck. Bashing up an injured, shot to shît Haye for millions, not once but twice. Not to take anything away from Bellew, he did what he needed to but let’s not pretend that version of Haye was any good. Body broken, reflexes gone, speed gone, power gone.
He outdone Haye, much respect to you.
As for Haye, very sad seeing such a great fighter being done over like that.
Bellew deserves as much credit as Cotto did for beating Martinez
I think he was still carrying effects from the last injury but even if his legs had been 100% I doubt he'd have won. He just didn't have the reflexes to get out of the way of Bellew's punches and had no other form of defense.
Haye injured again.
Haye was finished before this fight started, you don’t snap your Achilles and recover to compete at top level sport. Claims he wasn’t injured but this suggests otherwise. Bellew deserved to win but the likes of Joshua or Wilder would beat Haye and Bellew in the same ring. pic.twitter.com/hTNRa077yJ— Grant Smith (@GingerFTM) 5 May 2018
Oh no not the toe again!
Haye was injured although his tatics were right he doesnt have the physicality to pull it off
Wide punches with your hands down opens you up to counters and thats exactly what happened, he got caught during mid exchange. Bellew had shorter straighter punches and got to the target first.
Perhaps age has caught up to him, he got hit with shots where he usually avoids through good foot work, but the better man won

Yeah man, I thought FOR SURE, that Haye would have come in with better conditioning and defense for this one. I can't believe how far he has fallen, it's sad. Credit to Bellew, he has more in the tank than Haye does at this point but Ortiz, Wilder, AJ, Povetkin, Miller, Parker, Ruiz Jr all beat him convincingly.
It appears he did hurt his achilles again, and good for him on not using that as an excuse but like my boy Sergio Martinez, your body will eventually just give out on you and then it's a wrap.
