Flores to bits and be the first man stop him, Bellew said. All he keeps saying is that I am a light heavyweight, I am this, I am that, so we will soon find out. Hes been mouthing off and following me around for a couple of years and Im just a little bit fed up with him now. Thats the best way to look at it.I believe he will be training with Shane McGuigan and the David Haye camp, and the one thing about fighting Flores is we could well have fireworks before the fight even begins.

Many U.K. fans are not familiar with my style and will be in for a real treat on Oct. 15.I greatly respect the sport of boxing and I take this very seriously. I have been rated in the top 15 in the world since July of 2007. All of that means nothing unless I am able to finish with a world championship belt around my waist.
