World Champion boxer Tony Bellew tells his story.
Tony's boxing life began at Liverpool's Rotunda ABC, as a way for his life not to go down a life of crime, like others around him had done at the time.
In 2010, Tony won the Commonwealth light-heavyweight title, defeating Atoli Moore at the Echo Arena in Liverpool. From then on his career went from strength to strength, winning the WBO International cruiserweight title against Valery Brudov on 15 March 2014.
Tony achieved his life long dream on 29 May 2016, when he defeated IIunga Makabu to win the WBC cruiserweight title. He won the fight at his beloved Everton Football Club's ground Goodison Park. He then later went on to star in the Rocky spin-off / sequel Creed alongside Michael B. Jordan and Sylvester Stalone.

Class that James lad. Best one yet , got the best out of Tony
Been spoilt of late James,worked with Crazy Horse on the doors who you interviewed of late and now a boxing Hero of mine,thanks fella
I hope after the podcast Tony got home safely to his wife & kids
SummerS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
James try get Kenny Noye on mate, I'd pay to hear his story
Our world would be a much better place if more people were like Tony Bellew. An honourable and principled man.
I've always liked Tony but now I really like Tony
same here
same here
I'm just here, now, I don't like him, I think right now he's a bell end but right now I'll listen and with an open mind, we shall see, I'd like him to win me over I really would. I saw haye as a good guy so this guy apparently will win me over.
You like the wanker that actually said chisora was robbed by usyk 😂😂😂
@@ryanlucey1196 chisora was robbed
I’ve watched Tony all his career ..god knows how many interviews with Eddie and kugan and honestly this is the best most watchable interview I’ve seen of him... credit to James and Tony
Thanks Ben
I can second that!
The champion who never beat a champion
@@JamesEnglish all total lies and rimming by english in his snap on teeth
Porkys corner RUclips channel 🐷
Don’t understand the hate he gets the blokes a legend can only put it down to jealousy. Great listen James keep em coming
@G S a man that started with nothing and now has everything and ultimately does everything for his family that's my definition of a legend
@@user-tf2px6pv4r why is he not
Jonathan Clarke imagine being a hater n sitting there watching him for 2 hours 🙈
@@user-tf2px6pv4r So a ABA British European Commonwealth n World Champion across 3 weights isnt a Legend cmon fella dont be a sheep use your own mind
Don’t think it’s hate it’s more banter tbh, he seems a top bloke
Your best interview by far. Not a massive boxing fan but what a guy he is. Total fecking genuine with no bollocks. Everything about him was sincere
I am from Australia but the Liverpool accent is amazing love it
yeah...amazing...like scratching yer fingrnails down an old blackboard
Love the scousers
What a bloke. Straight down the line and no bullshit. Loved this podcast. Amazing
Brian cockerill taught tony all he knows about boxing 🥊 he’s just phenomenal he defies the laws of physics
Top man love Tony Bellew.
Didn't realise the history of him and Frank warren!
Buy McGuigan is a better then Frank Warren at least he cared about his boxers and his loyal Money Can't Buy you that
Boss guy Tony. Gets a lot of stick that he wasn’t the best boxer but he won everything possible in a boxing ring and he’s a great character and been a huge part of British boxing. Personally I think he’s very under-appreciated as a personality and underrated as a boxer. Brilliant interview.
Didn't win everything possible though did he
Could of listened to him all day - gripping story teller, thoroughly enjoyed watching. A great family man who strived to be the best he could possibly be.
Gareth Revell but he did at English level European level and world level got every belt they is on his way to the top that’s winning everything you Ming
Won everything?
I must’ve missed him smashing Usyk for all the Cruiserweight belts.
The guy’s an absolute wank mate 😂
He was more talented than he gets credit.
His 2nd performance against Haye was excellent.
The best interview by James English by far. Bellew speaks from the heart and totally raw. Great Champion and a fellow Evertonian.
Family, loyalty and respect. The guy is all about these things. How can you knock that
What a brilliant interview James, I’ve followed Tony’s career since his early days, he’s a likeable big fella, his story is very interesting and inspiring in a lot of ways. You conduct your podcasts/interviews very well and let the guest do all the talking whilst keeping them on topic and adding salient comments and asking questions your audience want answered. Brilliant job all round 👍
I'd love to bump into Tony in a pub and buy the man a drink, he's a really honest down to earth human being. The more I see him talk or fight, the more I respect him.
This interviewer asks the most accurate questions and pitches in at the right times with good statements but above all he knows when to be silent and allow the guest to speak in an uninterrupted flow state of conversation. Subbed.
Frank bruno would have some good stories and I'd be interested in his mental health battles..cos he keeps battling back
👍🏼
Definitely would love him on here! That end game boss laugh he has is legendary!
Like the time his old pal Jimmy Saville introduces him to the Yorkshire Ripper when he was running the asylum!
Best suggestion yet
Porkys corner RUclips channel 🐖
Honest and honourable hard to find in a person, well done Tony
Had the pleasure of meeting tony and his family today in work, I waited till he was ready to leave and asked for a cheeky photo, he couldn't of been any more sound and down to earth 👊🏻💚👊🏻
Excellent podcast again.Mr Bellew comes across as genuine and grounded.Rare qualities in today's world.
First opportunity I've had to watch this interview James it was BRILLIANT . What a great bloke Tony Bellew is .
Bellews always been a top lad, nothing but love and respect for him and I'm a red.
Great interview James. Tony Bellew what a top honest family man. Respect to you.
👍🏼
I’m a massive boxing fan, and a follower of this show from day 1.. every interview is brilliant... but this one was special... I follow IFL tv and Tony and kugan have a bond they know each well enough but James you blew every interview out the water with this one... Tony’s story is superb but he told so well because of how you conduct your interviews... fantastic again mate
Thanks brother
Could not have said it better myself 💯🙏
James you do absolutely great interviews and when you are getting Tony on for a interview you know you are doing something right in life
I agree brother
Met him in Portugal after he signed the usyk fight top man always got time to take a picture with fans😎
I was next to him in the check in queue at Faro airport in August 2018.
Watched twice now and now respect him twice as much. He’s a breath of fresh air for everyone. No real hatred in him and you tell he’s sincere
He’s even cured my dislike to Eddie Hearn
This guy is THE best interviewer I’ve ever watched....quality
Thanks Phil
Cracking interview. Tony seems like a proper sound guy
Cheers g
Think James brings out the best in people - has a relaxed but focused energy that allows his guests to relax and open up. Also let’s them speak and only intercedes to ask relevant questions. Perfect interviewing technique.
What a brilliant interview Tony seems a cracking lad, very down to earth his parents must be so proud of him. And another cracking interview by yourself James.
@@Soyuz19 no such thing as perfect interview technique. It's what you prefer.
My favourite guest so far. I loved watching Tony's boxing career unfold. Genuine bloke. Thanks for this one, James 👊👍
Cracking interview. I love how James keeps it real no matter who’s in front of him. Bellew is a funny dude and was a great boxer.
Cheers brother
James, you have great talent for this, you make guests feel so comfortable. In regards to Tony Bellew, he is as you say the people's champion. He is brilliant and I wish him luck.
👍🏼😀
James these interviews are just getting better and better well done on getting such a big name on. Can't wait for the next one well in mate
Cheers brother
Its big fury! Tysons dad btw incase you think its the gypsy king. It will be a fucking belter!
@@ZanderGibson88 that will be good bet he's got some crazy stories
I just love the honesty of this guy.. He forged a very good career for himself by not necessarily being the most gifted boxer but having the heart of a lion and a great left hand...
Always been the type of guy who when he talks you just have to listen... Superb interview.. Well done on getting this one done James.
This is my favourite interview of Tony ever... I think you did brilliantly James. You let him talk. Made him feel comfortable. Even the setting was perfect... He clearly was re living his youth and felt comfortable enough to let you in.
Genuinely.... I've seen every interview he's ever done. This is the best most honest and open one by a landslide.
Thank you for your work mate. A definite new fan in me!!
I've always watched Tony Bellew fights. But the things I've always loved about the man is he was never afraid to show his emotion - real men do cry - and also his absolute truth. Love him. Riveting from beginning to the end. Well done Tone !!!! X :-)
Go on big lad. Thanks James for all your interviews delighted to see Tony's story👍👍go on la ♥️
I've never liked Tony Bellew,this podcast has changed my mind,the best podcasts are where the person is totally honest and he is here.
The best interview by far. Tony you're a champ 👍🏾✌️
I met Tony the weekend just gone in Marbella. Was nice enough to stop and say hello and get a picture with me. What a gentlemen. Thank you Tony!
One of the best podcasts this one. Great genuine man Tony.. keep them coming James
Another fantastic interview James. Tony wears his heart on his sleeve. British boxing legend.
Brilliant interview, really enjoyed that. Thanks
Thanks as always James. Another brilliant interview. Really enjoyed it. All the best to Tony and his family
Mate you’ve made my day with this one! Absolutely cannot wait for this!! Bomber was one of the most underrated fighters of his time! Keep these coming man 10/10!!
👍🏼
@@JamesEnglish James Any Chance Of Terry Marsh That Would Be Awesome
Tony bellew you sir are a legend and James in my eyes the best interviewer by far, you knock spots off the TV trash that's about. Thank you both
Thanks brother
Best one yet mate, fantastic 👏🏻
The best interview ive seen,i didnt want it to end
James you need to get Tyan Booth on. Britain's funniest boxer and RUclips legend.
Great shout
I will look into it mate
Tyan is a legend. Check out his merch! Pure class
Be safe
Anything Goes With James English gotta have a bottle of echo falls ready for him if you do 👍🏻
Waited for this all week, brilliant interview, what a sound guy, I’m no push over but when he said I love my dad! I cried, lost mine two years ago and never really mourned him, Tony is great at speaking from the heart
❤️
Really enjoyed this interview, keep up the cracking work James.
Absolutely loved every minute of that interview.
Thank you James and more importantly Tony what a top top fella
You've gotta admire Tony. I remember watching the first Nathan Cleverly fight and thinking that was Tony's level. I never imagined how far he'd surpass Cleverly in the end. Won the world title at Goodison Park, upset favourite David Haye twice and ended up fighting for the undisputed cruiserweight titles against the best pound for pound boxer in the world. Oh, and he's a Hollywood star. Tony dared to be great and achieved his life ambition. Top man, top podcast. All the best.
Not enough credit giving to people like yourself, shawn attwood and true geordie for there interviewing skills. Considering the amount of experience compared to others in the main stream media who have been at it for years and had training. All your guests just instantly open up. I know that's why they are there but not easy for people to be so open. If there is one positive from this lockdown prior is people discovering these 'alternative' media channels and it helping them deservedly grow. Personally grateful for taking up the Luke Mitchell case.
Shaun attwood ? Do ye homework on him mate he’s a wrongen
@@scouse3993 give me a wee clue about some of the dodgy stuff he is involved in. Just a wee hint
Thanks for this mate
Another quality one, thanks to both.
Absolutely James' best interview, you don't need to be a boxing fan to enjoy! Great job xx
Delighted for bellew he deserves everything he has and earned it the hard way. I remember makabu fight I thought he was gonna lose, then he almost killed makabu unbelievable!. Tony got much better as he got older, the only thing was he always got tired, he has a fantastic brain for boxing he really knows what he is saying.
You can't come away from this interview, top notch, much appreciated 👍🏻
James is a great interviewer and Tony seems genuine, very honest and likeable. Really enjoyed this!
Good to see Tony on the podcast mate, loved watching his fights when he beat makabu, great night
Get Darren Till on here cracking story, stabbed twice, moved to Brazil, came back to Liverpool and got where he is now!
Where? Gettin beat up in the ufc 🤣
Batters people in firms off his head on beak. Bites ears off.
Yeah. A real hero story.
@@jamesp308 that video wasn't actually him.
@@redrizzla1989 mate I know the lad who was bit. Don't tell me it weren't him.
James Patrick you said it yourself lad “in firms” people in town think there sick lad I’ve been stabbed meself until you’ve been stabbed shut your mouth an don’t comment i got stabbed because of mistaken identity when people then think there sick off there heads in town you can’t help but have that fight mode up go to Liverpool on a night out mate an you’ll see how many big heads just want to fight you for no reason an if I was a MMA fighter I’d fkn kick there Ed’s in aswell
I've followed Tony since the Cleverley fights. Really is a top bloke. James English's channel has got to be the best on You Tube. Love it.
Absolutely brilliant listen,really enjoyed it!
Great podcast, and hopefully Tony got home safe to his wife and kids.
32 dislikes... how can you dislike any these 2🙈 amazing work again James bro
Cheers brother
Loved this.... best james english podcast so far in my opinion
A great interview. Tony is so down to earth. Sounds like he has been through a lot in his life. Comes across as a real genuine person, and a great fighter too. Wish him all the best in the future. Most enjoyable watch. Thanks for posting this, James English.
Loads of hard men and nutters from Liverpool! Tough place but a good grounding for British boxers like Tony. Great vid.
One of the best nights ever when he bashed Haye up great guy all the best to him
Took some skill to beat a man with one good leg right enough bellews a fukin 🍅 can
casey bramley haye wood twat you with one leg
Brilliant interview,thoroughly enjoyed it. Really interesting.👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Can't wait for this one drop tbh. James english is the one baby!!!!!
Great podcast James. Thank you.
Tony once trained with Ronnie Pickering. Said he's the hardest puncher and most naturally talented fighter on earth.
Lets av a bare knuckle then??
No chance..... everyone in boxing knows that Charlie Zelanoff is the pound-for-pound G.O.A.T. 186-0 baby!
@@totomesch1940 The Living Legend Charlie Zelanoff !!!
Legend has it that Ronnie Pickering sleeps with his knuckles bathing in unicorn milk and has a carbon fiber chin.
Ronnie who?
Absolutely loved this interview. Tony is a guy I could listen to all day and by far my favourite boxer ever.this man has the heart of a lion and wears his heart on his sleeve.wishing the big fella all the best in wot ever he does from now on.top interview james.keep up the good work bro.
Absolutely loved this one James , Tony comes across brilliant and tells his story great and made things easy for you 👍
Loved that, what a man!
Great interview James, Tony seems like a proper down to earth guy - Good luck to him and his family !!!
For a long time i always thought Tony Bellew was a loud mouth prick but as we all got to hear his story i realised he was just a down to earth bloke just trying to feed his family. Good luck on everything you do in life you've done things the hard way and deserve all the success in the world
Excellent interview....I didn't used to be a fan of Tony...now I am
Was there for the Makabu fight at Goodison. What a beautiful day it was too. Even big Pricey and Callum Smith were on the undercard.
Standing in the stand with a bunch of Everton lads - best fight I've ever been to. Bellew did everyone proud that night.
Tony one of my all time favourite fighters he wasn't the best but had a massive heart and wears it on his sleeve top bloke
By far the best interview what a true gent was a fantastic watch never thought I could get goose bumps listening to someone talk spine tingling interview keep it up James mate going places with this stuff
Great interview. Tony comes across as down to earth as they come. Keep them coming James, smashing it 👍
1 minute in im questioning myself as a father. Love this man. Not the best boxer but the heart and integrity of a warrior. He is all for his family and you have to respect any man who does that!
Outstanding, self belief is so powerful. Giving me inspiration to get moving with my life!!
Been looking forward to this interview for days. Two top genuine lads here 👌. Quality content once again!!
Thanks brother
Top man! Cheers for the interview Gents
This was great! Thanks,
The best podcasts are when James doesn’t have to ask too many questions, Bellew a proper storyteller 😂
Great Interview James Tony had a great career ..

Big respect to you Tony. Remember seeing you going for your runs in Liverpool back in the day. I lived off Smithdown
