    This will be a great fight. Not sure how Drozd will look after such a layoff

      drozd is different level to bellew......I think drozd is number one although havent watched an awful lot of him, he seems the most compact, briedis seems to get caught with jabs and doesnt have as tight a defense.

        I guess this means Bellew will very likely have to travel to Russia, I dunno but it depends who is backing Drozd.

        You can be sure Drozd won't fight as dumb as Makabu did, Makabu had the tools to spark Bellew out just clearly let the atmosphere get to him.

          Bellew is the champion and the fight would make more money in England. Why would he have to travel to Russia?

            Wilder was the champion and he still was going to have to go to Russia, terms can be dictated.

              Makabu fought the way he always fought Bellew just was too strong for him if anything Bellew didn't follow his trainers gameplan

                Do you think Ryabinksy will think it's worth it to spend the money needed to outbid Eddie Hearn? Drozd-Bellew isn't as big of an event in Russia as Wilder-Povetkin for the WBC heavyweight title would have been.

                  Drozd if he looks even 70% of what he was before the injury should have enough to beat Bellew unless he gets caught with something big.

                  Cruiserweight is heating up, Lebedev vs Doritos or Lebedev vs Glowacki

                  Kalenga vs Ramirez

                  Cunningham vs anyone

                  Glowacki vs Doritos
                  Drozd vs anyone. Soon we'll have a unified champ at cruiser again, not sure who will take all the marbles tho.
