    Comments Thread For: UK Insider: Stevenson-Bellew; Barker-Sturm; Selby

    Despite rumours to the contrary, it looks likely that Tony Bellew will take on Adonis Stevenson for the WBC light heavyweight title next month. A provisional date of 30 November has been set, and the fight will almost certainly be staged at the Bell Centre in Montreal. Nothing is set in stone at this stage, but negotiations are progressing.
    There had been some doubts expressed over whether Bellew, the mandatory challenger, would get his opportunity. Sergei Kovalev, the hard-hitting WBO champion, was being mooted by HBO in their interview with Stevenson following his stoppage win over Tavoris Cloud. However, a potential blockbuster unification fight looks to be down the road, so the Liverpool man would seem to be next in line for the Canadian.

          Props to Adonis for ignoring the haters. Keep it moving "Superman" because you are the Man! Continue to be an inspiration to those who don't think they will ever have a chance to succeed.

            Therefore he's not a snooker player.

              I'm looking forward to Stevenson-Bellew.

              I used to think that was 50-50.

              Now I expect Stevenson to knock his head off his shoulders.

                So did I.

                It would be interesting to see if Stevenson did nail him and he popped up like he did against Ovil McKenzie.

                He's seems like such an intense bloke Bellew. I still think he'll be a credit to himself.

                  Bellew will come in shape and train like a mad man that's for definite and he has decent power and Stevenson isn't a durable fighter.

                  He'll definitely do a lot better than Cloud did.

                    He probably is, although not professionally.

                    I miss playing snooker.
