Stevenson has the edge in power most definitely, but other than that he's barely superior to Bellew in most areas.
His engine isn't as good as Bellews and neither is his chin I don't think.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if Bellew won, I also wouldn't be surprised if Stevenson stopped him in a round though.

I'd put this down as a 50/50 fight. It's a winnable one for Bellew, and one i'm sure he preferred to Dawson (seems silly saying that though after the fashion in which Stevenson beat Dawson.)
Stevenson has the power advantage and Bellew is going to have to nulify that. Bellew has put a game plan before excitment before though, and i wouldn't be surprised to see him do that against Stevenson.

Since that, he's had 7/8 fights which have mainly ended in quick KOs/TKOs, and to me he's not been into the championship rounds with a decent fighter.
Sure he timed Dawson and took him out, but I'm not convinced. The power is a given, but there's lingering doubt on this guy whether he's the goods or not.
On the other hand, Bellew is OK but he's flawed in his style. If he's reckless against that kind of power then Stevenson may well take him out. Stevenson is a big, strong light-heavy. I can't say the same for Bellew.
Bellew did OK against Cleverly (another unproven ''Champion''). I just hope he comes with the right conditioning and tactics because his last fight didn't impress me.

Did you guys read the article? Stevenson gets a voluntary first....most likely against Cloud. Both those guys are limited as fuk but can punch. Wouldn't be entirely shocked if Cloud won that
