What an Incredible, honest, inspirational man. Big love to Tony.
One of the best interviews I've ever seen.
Really ?
Tony Bellew is such a great person. Watched his career & is incredible! 💯
As a mature lady this caught my eye after watching I'm a celebrity..' recently. I am impressed by the insight and honesty shown by both - a good lesson for all young men to learn from! Well done!
We a mature lady 😂😂
A genuinely good, decent & humble human Tony ❤
Question near end- what would make you happy, he doesn’t know, could be resolving all the stuff that he doesn’t want to go back to. He’s right that he can’t change the past but he can change his relationship to it and make peace with it. Great interview
Tony....you're a diamond mate. Respect.
It's so nice to see the honesty and vulnerability behind athletes like Tony, the things they work through in their minds to achieve their success is beyond me
Tony bellew is a fucking legend of the uk
Great watch. Genuinely hope Tony managed to get home to his wife and kids safely after the podcast. 🤞
What a legend. I love Tony Bellew. ❤
Your laid back interview technique is so bleeding good at getting the best out of your guests 👏🏻 keep up the great work
There was not ever a better conversation that I have experienced! Thank you two.
The thing that stood out to me the most is that he knows he isn’t better or worse than anyone. The thing is life that we do is we put people on pedestals and assume people are better or worse. The only difference between us all, is those who have tapped into their true potential and those who don’t know they have it. Loved it so much, one of my favourite episodes to date!
And those who are given opportunities through nepotism lol
Virtue signaling......
I reared my children to believe they are no better or worse than anybody but to respect people ect teachers, boss ect.
I done a painting for Tony and he was unbelievable towards me and my other half, a true gentleman and friendly person that has the time for anyone he comes into contact with! Never change tony! Never change!
Your work is amazing!!
@@hairartist63 thank you so much! Really appreciate it! I’m glad you like my artwork! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Tony is a top man. A great example to not only his children on how to be a genuine and sincere human being but to anyone. Plus a man with real honour to keep his word to Eddie and turn down £1.6 million was very impressive. I don't know if there is anyone else who would have done that. Big respect
I absolutely Love 🧡 This man, Obviously he’s just been on I’m a Celebrity, but That, I think has made a Hell of a lot of people respect and love him Also! Steven is SUCH a Nice guy and Perfect Interviewer, These are in the top few Videos/Podcasts on RUclips! This is Such a Good Interview 💖 💪🏼
Thanks so much for letting us know! So glad you are enjoying the episodes!! Team DOAC 🙏
I love the vulnerability Tony always shows.
Seems like a genuine geezer!
He's from my city great genuine fella & he's supports the mighty blues Everton. 💙 From Liverpool..
I say this almost every episode, this is quickly becoming the best long-form interview podcast.
One of the best Diary of a CEO episodes ever made, what an insight from Tony. Congratulations on a great career and I hope you enjoy what is becoming a brilliant family life after retirement.
This is a really good interview. The bottom line is never let anyone downgrade or belittle your background, no matter who you are or where you are from. We are who we are, we are all unique irrespective of skin colour and we can all achieve anything we want, but never ever forget or disrespect your roots. These guys are the epitome of this point. Brill Interview!
This was a great interview, his vulnerability is heartfelt I've learnt so much. "I can not change what is out of my control".
What a fantastic interview and Tony gave answer to every question . And what a really good looking guy he is 🐷🥊🥊🥊
Will always jump to watch a Tony interview/podcast. No difference here man. Raw & honest as they come. 👏🏿👏🏿 Solid listen.
I'm similar age to Tony and grew up in a similar area (just the Manchester equivalent) and so much of what he says in this interview I can relate to, this idea of just wanting nice things, when you come from nothing, you believe that have nice things will make you happy, and it genuinely doesn't, but you have to get there to realise that. When my career in banking took off in the 00s, all I wanted to do was impress my parents, maybe our generation had that ingrained in us because our dads were part of a generation from the 60s and 70s that didn't articulate their feelings, and that's why that was so important to us to try and get that recognition. Great interview, Tony is a legend, one of the great sportsman and it's great seeing him in a good place.
Spot on mate as much as we hate each other in football terms us scousers and mancs are the same people were both just to proud to admit it we all know it's scousers and mancs who do the graftin
I’ve listened to 3 of the podcasts. I have loved every second of each one. You’re an amazing host who manages to bring out sides of people I didn’t think I’d see. Great pod mate!
wow, this is a high-level, emotionally intelligent and important conversation... wish the world could listen to this
Have to say, One of the best podcast/interviews I’ve watched. Tony, absolute inspiration. You said so many things thought out that really resonated, but the stand out for me was the quote:
“people only see the destination not the journey” never a truer word said…
Thank you.
Yes. This is interesting. I was watching a RUclipsr called Liam Brown who walked from John O’Groats to Land’s End. This journey was to take about 2 months walking. I was just thinking about how toilsome the journey would be until we see how much fun he was having along the way. I realised then that whatever goal you set yourself, don’t think about the end, just enjoy the journey.
This could possibly be my favourite episode so far. What an incredible, inspiring guy!
What great man so authentic/ he is so right , no one is truly happy its just that most are better at hiding it then others - great interview ❤
I would love to meet this man, I first seen him on the SAS programme then after that I've never seen a man carry himself so well he's so honest and true to himself this is what alot of us are missing in our characters.
Comfortably one of the best episodes this. Really good to see the other side of Tony. Steven again getting the best out of his guests
What a great person tony is such a decent human being great interview well done
Absolutely loved this interview. This gentleman is real and honest.
Man. I am so glad to hear Tony talk so heartfelt. I have so much more respect for this man.
I understand him, I am black and we as people of colour totally get what he is talking about.
Such good interviews. He really gets his interviewees to fully open up
Genuinely, one of my favourites episodes! Love how it finished! Ultimately your colours will come shining out! ❤️
I'm 5 minutes in and already this is pulling on my heart strings. I'm so excited to see where this episode goes! Thanks again Steven!
Thanks for listening Kelly 🙏
are you serious ??? He is a complete tool ...do you need a refresher on his statements ?
@@simonrodgers3278 he's a tool but you're here watching. What does that make you😅
Tony is an amazing decent man & so authentic I thoroughly enjoyed this podcast ❤
@@simonrodgers3278 One year late on watching this episode. But i'm curious to how you can think someone as a tool, when they've come from hardships all the way to achieving WBC cruiserweight World Champion, European Cruiserweight champion, WBO International cruiserweight champion, British Light-Heavyweight champion, a married father of 4 champion, writing a book, owning properties and more. Calling someone a tool purely based on your personal feelings, rather than basing it off a person's achievements, kinda points to you actually being the tool.
Incredible interview. Tony Bellew has a special kind of charisma & this is the best interview I've seen him in, covering some really thought provoking subjects. Watching this was time well spent 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🌟🌟🌟
Thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Thank you so much Mr Bartlett & your team 🤗
Tony, thank you for sharing your life journey . You are an inspiration to so many. Honesty, authenticity and being true to oneself, shines through in inspirational people, thank you. 🤗
what a lovely honest interview. he comes across great and so good to see these kinds of things that aren't just 'i did everything right and im great'
The variety of @Steven's guests, the style of questioning and the level of rapport he develops with his guests gives a podcast product of a total privilege; an insight like nothing else. Thanks so much to everyone who plays a part in these they're just truly epic. 🤝🙏👌
Awesome interview Steven.. Tony is a Genuine Down to Earth Lovely man .. i Respect him so much ❤️& having lost my younger brother in similar circumstances i completely understand how him & his wife & family are feeling.. its life changing & nothing can ever ease the pain & heartbreak you experience Daily.. you just have to cope the best you can & take each day as it comes.. Such a Honest open interview.. Loved Tony on I’m a Celebrity & you can see the Respect he shows others he Genuinely feels he’s not better than anyone of us.. Worked hard to get where he is today & i wish him all the Happiness for him & his Family who you can see means everything to him.. Well done again Steven i enjoy your interviews very much & this was my favourite so far 👏👏👏🤩
I really enjoyed this episode. So nice to hear a success story. I hope he lives happily ever after with his wife, children and future grans.
Tony Bellew laid bare right there. Always used to think he was a bit nuts but seeing and hearing the honesty, open conversation and the integrity of the man and his relationship with Eddie Hearn. Massive respect to Tony Bellew.
Have to agree with the book too. The Chimp Paradox is a fabulous book and having followed Tony’s career there will be so many moments he will relate to that book.
Also seen him on SAS who dares wins when Ant Middleton almost pushed him past the point of no return with his temper and became a fan of Tony Bellew. Great interview!
This was a great watch. I would say its the best podcast/interview I have ever watched. Both Tony and Steven are extremely humble men and deserve every success that comes their way.
Brilliant episode! DOC is so well put together it is my go-to for evening entertainment.
I saw a glimpse of this character watching the SAS show. I can relate to most of what Tony mentions about the impact of early life on adult behaviour, and the struggle of not letting the 'old you' come out in high-pressure situations in a mature setting such as a boardroom. Seeing Tony Bellew's character now, as a committed, humble family man, I have gained a lot of respect for him. Truly a good man!
Didnt like him all the time during his boxing career but i grew up a Nathan Cleverly fan so that swayed me, but the more i listen to tony the more i like him these days ...talks facts and doesnt care who hes talking too he talks to them the same ..he is unopologetically himself and i respect that
I do not have an interest in Boxing and I’ve never heard of this man before. I just stumbled across this video and i’m mesmerised by his charisma and how he articulates himself. I’m purchasing his book immediately. Thank you for another amazing interview.
What a down to earth bloke - Was always interested in Bellews story, this definitely gripped me from the go.
"How to deal with Hard moments" is something that has stuck with me since I first listened to this last year
As a regular watcher, this looks like an interview filmed a while ago (could be wrong) thanks for posting it. Great insight into Tony who I’ve watched over the years. Amazing to see this side of him
One of my favorite fighters. I've emulated him in the ring and appreciated his style outside the ring. It was an absolute pleasure getting to know Tony's journey a bit more in detail. I will definitely pick up his book and the Chimp Paradox.
Hearing Tony be so open and vulnerable is so empowering. The honesty, heart and acceptance of his own faults are a foundation and grounding we can all take from. Nothing but respect.
This is my favourite episode so far. Massive respect for Tony.
Another great interview.
Tony is very honest about all of his life experiences.
Thank you to everyone involved for another wonderful episode.
Thank you Jonathan 🙏
I love listening to Tony bellow speak to hear the things he over came and how he improved as a human being is inspiring
What a truly honest genuine person, such a pleasure to listen to
Brilliant interview. Strong character of a man. Great provider and a beast in the ring.
To the interviewer, perfect tempo, great Q’s, best Iv heard so far in the podcast game. Kudos
Haven’t watched for a while, came back for Bear and now this- enjoyed this beyond all expectations
True,honest and genuine. No walls or barriers.
Another authentic conversation where the question formulating in my head comes out of Stevens mouth.
This is the Jedi side of the internet 🙏🏻💙
This might be the best one yet Steve. Tony is always so honest so I knew before I watched it would be a good one.
'social media is showing everyone the destination but not the journey' Words of the wise god bless you!
Mans a legend.. inspirational man. Thank you Tony for everything
Brilliant podcast ,keeping it real. Tony’s a gem👍
Legit man, so real, so honest, baring all. Such meaning, thank you
This is so touching, thank you so much for being so honest. That’s so beautiful 💛
Love this guys vulnerability, truth and honesty, that's what makes you happy x
As. SDA believer, I loved this Bro Tony. Always honest, straight talking & upfront.
Prayer & Godly trust Tony will experience a peace no where else to be found. Tony has the foundation principles of Husband protector & provider.
Faith takes you to another level, praying for you & family Tony🙏🏿
I watched Tony on SAS some time ago and he came across so different back then. So it’s good to know that experience helped him massively moving forward. This was such a good conversation, raw, open and honest…really enjoyed this ❤️
Great to see him opening up!!!!!!!!
Love your interviews as always! And good for you for continually working on urself! x
When he say Nothing made me happy, I totally relates to this ! You can’t understand until you really live it.
Now I never comment on any of the videos I watch on YT, but this is an exception. Unbelievable video. Tony Bellew is a top top guy. Honest and relatable, and Steve's way of interrogating his guests is impeccable. I for one always strive for more and want the next best, I feel the need to provide for my family in my 8-5 job. Steve & Bellew have made me realise that although that's a good trait to have, That I still need to enjoy the now, because that final destination will never come I will always want more. What's 100% true is that I will never enjoy my current moments again, so I need to make the most of them while moving forward. Unbelievable show guys. Congrats and Thank you!
Steven you are smashing these. 👏 Always keep getting better! Wow, Tony thank you for being so honest and vulnerable with your emotions 😍 👏
Another Brilliant podcast by Mr Bartlet and the inspirational Tony Bellew well done gents.
I love his last comment about been yourself, only compete against yourself.
And be true to yourself, lies always catch up with you.
Karma delivers when you least expect it.
So be mindful of how you treat and speak to those around you.
Speak to people, in the same manner you would expect to be spoken to and treated.
What a wonderful Honest interview. Thankyou Antony for brining it to us x
Hi Steven I came across your channel because it was Tony Bellew. Who have always admired as a fighter. One of the best interviews I have seen in the last six months. You show so mutch respect humility and let them share thair story. I think it is a grait gift you have to let them talk but also guide the interview. I watch Joe Rogan all the time and he as wot I call the gift of knowing when to be silent. By watching your interview and the way you explained the chimp paradox I am defiantly ordering a copy, many thanks Steven. I am know going to bing watch a few more of your interviews. Keep doing wot your doing you are a credit to yourself. Many thanks Steven Horsfall
What an amazing interview Thank you both! 👏🏼👏🏼💛✨✨
I am not having a good day today.
Just feel like crying & don’t no witch way to turn. Driving home listening to this interview & it’s helping take my mind away from the dark thoughts I am having.
Tomorrow is another day.
Thank you 🙏 for making these videos.
Tony is the man! We need to hear from him every week in some format
This episode got me close to tears. I've always been a fan of Bellew and his authenticity. What struck me was his refusal to speak to Cambridge and instead he would rather go and speak to kids from not so good backgrounds. Rags to riches story and a true inspiration.
Superb interview. Got to be honest,i wasn't a massive fan of Tony Bellew when he was boxing, but ive seen him gettiing a few times & changed my opinion of him..Totally understand his grief over his brother in law, 5 people that I cared about ( most importantly my mum❤️ )have passed away in last few years and it's scrambled my brain so well done for talking about it.
What a conversation. We are blessed. 👏🏻👏🏻
What an honourable and integral man. Excellent interview. Thanx. x
Really interesting and genuine guy. Thank you for another fantastic interview/conversation; Tony was very engaging and honest about his life and journey so far. Particularly liked the part about always evolving. What a great role model for our young men. Steve you bring out such raw honestly from the guests. This podcast is a force for immeasurable good and positively. Gosh do people need this! 😊
Great interview.Tony Is so genuine. Big respect Tony 😘😘
Absolutely Amazing podcast-steve is first class interviewer
No matter wether you love or hate TONY you can’t fault his total honesty and expression of his Amazing Life-and how he isn’t at the mercy of the worlds external Validation-A true inspiration and a true lion heart!!!.
when YOU were born you cried while the world rejoiced-Live your life in such a way that when you die,The world cries why you rejoice..
You were BORN to do something remarkable with your LIFE Don’t lose hope-don’t let them dull your sparkle,blaze your own trail-
You may have been broken down by stress worry adversity or loss but you’re not broken!!
peace🕊
Love this interview. Great guy. So honest and revealing. Lot's of what he says really hits home.
✍️☝️⤴️Thanks for the comments Write me now for more information and profitable investment strategies.📚⤴️
Hey Steven, hey Tony, really good eye opener this lads. Steven simply allows Tony to talk and doesn’t talk over him, a rare talent this. Wishing you both the very best for future projects ❤️
You just know Tony tells the truth. Great role model for decency. You have good principals mate and why not? Many people who have hard upbringings know the difference between right and wrong. Bless you 👍🙂
Great guest to have on, to give people a real insight of what a boxer goes through. Only half way through, but yet again another fantastic podcast from you and the team. Keep them coming!
Thank you Carlo! 🙏
I don't watch or know anything about boxing. But this episode felt so real, raw and honest.
This was a great interview. I really love this dude. Even more so now after truly understanding his story!!! Thanks for sharing.
This was amazing what a great guy he is
Fan of Tony, liking him better as a man than a boxer as time goes on. A lot of people go the 'we're all the same' schtick, but after watching this, his life experience bears all of his statements out. 'Stay humble' should've been his catchphrase. Much respect.
Another great interview 👏
I really got engrossed in that podcast,2 great genuine guys having a chat,bril show mate new subscriber 👍🏼
Hes interesting to listen to. Very heartful bloke who isn't scared to show it.
Tohy Bellew Brilliant Honest Interview fantastic in depth interview Words of a CHAMP inside and out side of the ring
Fantastic podcast.
What a guy.
This made me laugh and cry. So much of what he said resonated with me.
I'm hooked on these videos inspiring eye opening and knowing that even at the top there's struggles to get through to where they are ....
Would love to sit live onetime and watch
Really interesting interview. Tony is straight up guy I’m happy he’s accomplished what he has and I wish him all the best in the future. Just got his book now and look forward to reading it. Great interview also gladly subscribed thanks.
What a good honest man Tony is. Its rare gem in todays world . Greetings from Serbia
