Whether you like Tony or not and i don't know why you wouldn't you can't deny he's entertaining and tells great stories.

[@davidgilbert222]

What a nice guy, good boxer, very knowledgeable about boxing and a good speaker.

[@ItzJigz187]

Hes father and a husband too

[@jamiec2981]

This is the 3rd or 4th Boxing Life Stories I have listened to now, I have the say Tris Dixon is the best interviewer I have come across, in any sport I happen to watch/listen too. Fantastic stuff

[@deeditmane]

Perfect combo knowledgable interviewer and brutally honest interviewee

[@beemac79]

I can't recall Tony on the door of Society, but I recall his Dad Tony Sr. He was one of the nicest people you would meet, really down to earth Gent. I also bumped into him about 12 years ago in the Grapes, started a conversation with him randomly about the old times and he was great. Always a fair person, never a bully.

[@scrap95]

All true plus makes a lovely cup of Tea,

[@natalieeckhardt2573]

So much respect for this man

[@johnbuckland626]

Love Tony Bellew. He was a great boxer. If he'd been bigger physically he would have won the world heavyweight title. Decent bloke.

[@badgerbhoy9534]

If you did lamp him i know 100% he would have brought out a book about it, "Bashed by Bellew, my road to redemption"

[@robbiebailey3096]

Top stuff as always Tris! Proper bloke is Tony- emotional, loyal and hard as nails. Perfect guy to have in your corner.

[@charliebeecher2199]

This Tony I could listen to all day. He's toned himself down a few notches from how he is on that podcast with Hearn and he comes across really articulate, well spoken and like a great guy here with a good moral compass. Don't have to change at all just reign yourself in a little from time to time and calm down a little

[@Tarteh]

I can't remember if it was Ajisafe or McKenzie but he hit the canvas so hard it woke up him. Tough win over Cleverly and I must admit I didn't think he'd do Makubu but he blasted him out and wow, what a fighter! I couldn't believe my eyes when he was outboxing Usyk for those several rounds.

[@williamgolding7126]

You can see by Tony's face that he's been home and safe for a while now! Lad's enjoying retirement

[@Sam-tx1tn]

Great interview by Tris as always. Deserves to have WAY more subscribers.

[@Howling-Mad-Murdock]

Brilliant interview. I was one of the ones who didn’t like him as a fighter, warmed to him massively since he retired.

[@paulbowman1762]

Felt exactly as you bro? He's the only one as we now know? Put it on usyk and won lots of rounds unlike AJ who tried to box him and got nowere

[@josephadair5042]

This is a class interview, where the interviewer let's the interviewe talk top draw

[@kimmycutler2038]

Absolutely love Bellew. Very humble very honest all round nice guy. I was lucky enough to go watch his last fight against Usyk. Although Tony wasn't triumphant, he fought a great fight and the atmosphere was electric. Great fella

[@thomaskendell8146]

He's pretty game but hasn't got a chin

[@michaelbizzle7087]

Watch all the interviews when he said he would beat fury all because he beat a washed up haye who was dogshit he beat makuba wot ever he is called bum he even said he tried getting fury when fury was out of shape he still would got schooled who as he beat really

[@bensuckling1717]

Didn’t particularly like Tony, until the David Haye saga, his mention of his bro in law after the 2nd demolition job absolutely pierced me and showed how real he is all the best Tone, and great podcast Tris

[@estasquecrujes]

FFS when are brain dead on youtube ever going to give up on, "you'll never see me again"? Bellew has NEVER said "you'll never see me again". He has said, "you'll never see me in the RING again" and we havent! All youre doing is showing your lack of knowledge, give it a fucking rest boring bastards!

[@tribalisnt]

I swear Tony Bellew's career can be broken down into Pre-Creed and Post-Creed, before Creed he was a good fighter but after Creed he became champ, fucked up Haye and then retired after a good scrap with Usyk.

[@Jacobe23]

I've had to say to multiple people leave it out with Tony... The man said he wanted to be left alone after being knocked out against a pound for pound great. He's a fighter it's in his blood to be around the sport man 🤷🏻‍♂️😂 and believe it or not he knows a thing or two about boxing and people like to hear his opinion!

[@deestroyer1885]

The interviewer had no choice but to be quiet as once a scouser starts talking its difficult to get a word

[@luluboxingtv2880]

U gotta respect him because he became a world champ after bad losses , had some massive wins to but on a personal level think he’s a prick he goes back on what he said all the time

[@stevenrichardson9880]

I like Tony Bellew but listen Ant Middleton has been trained many many years in military Close Quarter Combat. Its immediate groin kicks, eye gouges, bites, knees to groin, throat strikes and knee stamps. Ground fighting training is a massive part and dirty clinch work. Bellew is a great boxer and I reckon can have a scrap on the street but Squadron lads fight a different game.

[@kingjames1101]

Very weird none of these killing machines you describe go and dominate ufc isn’t it? Living in a fantasy land Bellew would smash his jaw clean off

[@stevenrichardson9880]

You really are about as stupid as people get aren't you? I have just explained that boxers and special forces guys are trained in two COMPLETELY different processes, one for rules/competition fighting and the other (SF guys) for real life no rules fighting and you then come out with a comment about them (SF guys) not competing in UFC (a rules based system) and dominating. That would be like asking a great white shark to fight out of the water. You just don't get it do you? This shows how little you understand about combat. The rules of sport fighting make the psychological impact factors completely different to a street attack or military hand to hand engagement. You get a few months to prepare for a competition fight with protective gear, referee, paramedics all there to keep safety margins tight. In the street or in warfare there is none of that, and you might get 3 seconds to prep for attack so the psychology is different as is the rules set and fight dynamic. Clinching in UFC is about looking for a takedown or throw or knee, in street or combat you bite the guys nose off, or gouge his eye out then retreat within seconds. You are uneducated, unrealistic and lack basic understanding of different combat principles. I can no longer engage any of my energy with you unless you can come back with something even slightly intelligent to say in response, which I find highly doubtful.
