Tony Bellew believes he made a serious statement of intent when hammering domestic light-heavyweight rival Danny McIntosh to defeat in five rounds on a Coldwell Promotions bill in Liverpool last night. Bellew successfully defended his British belt and moved to 17-1 (11) via a technical count out after downing McIntosh with a booming right hand, his sole defeat came courtesy of a majority decision loss to Nathan Cleverly for the WBO light-heavyweight title in October. “Bomber” has made no bones over his desire to secure a rematch with the Welshman.

He fought for a World title and in his hometown and lost - not one judge had him winning the fight.

He isn't even European Champion, so I don't know how he expects to get a shot at these guys yet. He's fought I don't know how many fights and how many of his last fights in his hometown.

Fight away from home - its one thing being a hometown fighter with a World Title but being one when your at domestic level is something else.

Either take a couple of fights and pick up the Lonsdale belt outright, then go for the Euro and World title shot again or if he wants to take a quicker route - get out of your back garden for once and go to Germany and pick up the Euro belt increasing your ranking which'll get you closer to another World Title shot.

He talks I'll go Germany and fight this guy and that guy but the proof is in the pudding, all I've seen is fight after fight in his own front room.
