That was a hellacious KO by Bellow. A couple of years ago he looked like crap when he was KO'd by Stevenson. Good for him that he continued to chomp at the bit and won a title in this fashion.

1st Brit to do so correct?
No he is the first Scotsman. Duke Mckenzie won three belts back in the early to mid to 90's. He was never really considered a three weight champion because back then the WBO was considered a spurious belt even though they had quality champions(their voluntary challengers were another matter).
