Tony Bellew will be taking notes when he watches Adonis Stevenson vs Tavoris Cloud

Tony Bellew will be ringside on Saturday night when Adonis Stevenson defends his WBC light-heavyweight title against Tavoris Cloud.

Stevenson made his name at super-middleweight but still had a low profile when he became mandatory challenger for Froch's IBF title. "He tried his best to get Carl in the ring, but to be fair to Carl he's never dodged anyone in his career and you can't knock him for dodging Adonis Stevenson because he was unknown," said Bellew, who will once again be sparring with Froch as the 'Cobra' prepares to face George Groves on November 23. "Unification fights supersede mandatories and from a neutral point of view there was no doubt Carl should have been facing Mikkel Kessler, so he can moan about being dodged but he got his shot (at Dawson) through sheer luck. I've earned my shot and that's all I want. "Carl is a good friend and if I can help him in any way possible I will do. We'll get the work done as we always do and I'm pretty sure he'll do the same for me."
