Tony “Bomber” Bellew (20-2-1, 12 KO) just moved to the cruiserweight division following a loss to WBC light heavyweight champion Adonis Stevenson.
Valery Brudov (41-4, 28 KO) is experienced at 37 years old, and is considered the probable loswer in this fight.
If Bellow does lose, he has said that he will quit, he told Sky Sports.
“It’s the be all or end all,” said Bellew. “It’s that big, if I can’t beat Valery Brudov then I’m not going to be a world champion and I just don’t think there’s much point in carrying on to be totally honest, so this is it for me.
“Make no mistake this is a tough fight, this guy has got more knockouts than I’ve had fights. He has got 28 KO’s, I’ve had 23 fights... 45 fights, he got to 30-0, not many people can say they got to 10-0, this guy got to 30-0.
“He’s tried, tested and proven, he’s solid, and the look in his eye says he’s coming to win, he’s not coming here for a pay day, to make up the numbers, and he is coming to win.
“He just said to me ‘God bless you’, I think he’s trying to tell me I’m going to need it.”
