Bellew, "never, ever .. ever, ever"
Usyk: "Oh, sing it .. never, ever, ever, ever, in November"
Bellew: "You're the champ"
Usyk, "I know"
Bellew, "You're the champ, you're a super star"
Usyk, "I am? No, no .."
Bellew, "You're a star .. you're a super star .."
Usyk, "No .. no .."
Usyk then turns to his promoter and says something in Ukranian, then turns back to Bellew and apologises for his poor English.
Bellew, "I think you understand"
Usyk, "I am not star"
Bellew, "You're a star"
Usyk, "No"
Strange conversation!
Bellew likes being the underdog and gets a lot of motivation from feeling he's being overlooked, written off, etc.
Maybe Usyk understands that and he's trying to stop Bellew from playing the same role with him as he did with Haye?

I think Usyk has this but Bellew is a very live dog. Don't know if Bellew hits as hard as Gassiev who I thought did hurt Usyk in the fourth round of their fight. I also don't know if Tony can keep up with Usyk's pace for twelve rounds. And of course, FOTY honors are riding on this. If Usyk wins, he gets it imo. If he loses, he definitely will not. Oh man, but if he does, what a year! The WBSS tourney, total unification at cruiser and beating three top cruisers in their own backyards. Incredible.
