"All the attributes he had over heavyweights over the years, he doesn't have any more. Don't detract from his career - he's an amazing fighter and will go down in history better than I ever will."

That..... was TONY BELLEW???

Wow. Classy and complimentary with a dash of modesty tossed in. Crap, now I am gonna have to have a ton more respect for this guy and wonder if all the trash talking was just salesmanship?

Shannon eats him at this point. But Shannon is geared up to the eyeballs.

Haye looks a bit suspect too

You got to give it to Bellew, great attitude om him

[hugh grant]

Bellew thinks he would best prime haye also?

Not sure why everyone hates on Bellew so much, yeah he trash talks to get or build a fight but if you hear him talk beside that he's a straight up guy.

No bull****.

When guys say stuff like this, most of the time it's just yet another thinly-veiled attempt to stroke their own egos, but this is not the case here. Extremely classy stuff from Tony, especially that last line. He may have just made a fan out of me after all these years.

Right?? I just made the same comment. Class stuff. Just earned himself another fan.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone call out Ward, its Ward usually doing all the calling out. Bellew must really feel good about his chances.

Ward recently said he's done for good, but that last re-retirement check may draw him out like a hornet smoked out from its nest. I'd like to see em' go at it - it'd definitely be interesting.
