Can Bellew even make 185 anymore?

UFC hurting

Pretty much. Ratings are in the tank, and they've learned a hard lesson about putting all their eggs in one basket (Conor). Because if Conor ain't fighting, he ain't making the UFC money.

Anyway, no one wants to see Bellew in the cage. it wouldn't quite be James Toney-level bad, but close.

Bellew would hit hard in those little gloves. But I'm never picking a boxer over a MMA guy or vice versa in a crossover fight.

What would he do, get down to his cruiserweight size (LHW in UFC If I'm not mistaken)?. A wrestler like DC would take him down early with ease and then stay on top of him.

Did you see ray mercer vs Tim Sylvia? Boxer destroyed ex ufc heavyweight champion In the cage, the first and only punch thrown lol

[rolshans]

Obviously Bisping would be the heavy favourite...but with the way he's been dropped his last two fights? Could be intriguing...

I agree UFC hurting hard
Their cards are not selling well unless Vegas where I was told many tickets are comps to gamblers and vip
Dana had mentioned he was getting into the boxing scene but not sure what happened there
White knows where the money’s at

If you are going to cross over don't set your sights low. Bisping is on the way out. You are on the way in. Target someone like Lesnar...that guy can't take a punch. Winning that gets you some real respect...and the possibility of a rematch at next year's Wreslemania. You could become the greatest 3 combat champion of all time. If you beat Haye.

I wouldn't hate that. Bisping is a weak ground guy & loves his standup. They could probably come to a UK handshake agreement to only use strikes or something. Bellew need to watch dem kicks doe.

Seems like the perfect retirement fight for Bisping. Two bums past their prime hoodwinking the public for some easy cash in a UK showdown.

Meh....I'd prefer to see Artem Lobov fight Francis Ngannou

Has more chance sitting down with the area managers of KFC ......heard there looking for good local managers and counter staff

in the build-up to his fight with the 38-year-old, ‘Bomber’ was not afraid to admit

Who made this article? Bellew is 35 not 38.
