    Bellew vs Cleverly II - Why are people not doing anything?

    I've never seen a more blatant fix of a fight in recent years as Bellew vs Cleverly II. Any fix is bad but this was a complete slap in the face to boxing fans.

    I've tweeted Bellew, Cleverly and Hearn saying it was a fix. I hope a few more people do as well, so they realise they can't pull **** like that. Complete fix to get a trilogy on the cards. Tweet and let them know we are not ******!

      It could have been fixed, after all Bellew needs to practice his acting skills now he's going to be a massive star in Hollywood. People are saying he could be the scouse Marlon Brando.

            This weekend's card is better than Hearn's PPV.

              Hope you feel the same when it happens to fights people do give **** about.

              Regardless of what fight it is, promoters need to get picked up about stuff like this instead of turning a blind eye. Saturday night was a disgrace to boxing. If people want to see fixed fights then lets all keep quiet. I don't mind.

                It crossed my mind. It was the way that Cleverly was throwing and missing his jab. I stopped thinking about in the mid-rounds and later on when Cleverly became more stationary and took a pummeling that lasted a number of rounds.

                Have to remember how bad Kovalev wrecked him - he could have just been gunshy to the extreme (like Bute for example) and just content on surviving and working through the demons of Kovalev. That is how I left the fight, but fix did cross my mind can't lie. Score for Cleverly is unforgivable.

                  Would anyone know what they both pocketed for this fight?

                    No fix. Bellew was right. Cleverly was afraid to get hurt hence, rarely threw the right. Everytime he did, he put his head closer to Bellew's gloves. He basically spent all night trying to fend off Bellew with the jab. Cowardly display. Still took a beating.
