Coach Tony Belew David Caldwell commented on the defeat of his ward in a fight against the absolute world champion in heavyweight Alexander Usik.

"Bellew fought fantastically, he really boxed well. But at the end of the sixth round he lost his legs.. He never recovered from that.. It was hard for me to watch the fight.

It was awful ", - quotes the words of the coach of Sky Sports.

The specialist noted that he expected to win Tony.

"Frankly, we were devastated. I know that this is the mustache, but we were preparing to defeat him, "Caldwell said.

Recall, on the night of November 11, Usik effectively knocked out Belleu and kept the championship belts on the WBA, WBO, WBC and IBF versions. After this fight, the 35-year-old Briton ended his career, and the Ukrainian champion gathered in a heavyweight.
