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
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.
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 :-)
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 👍
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.
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.
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 👊🏻💚👊🏻
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!!
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
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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!!
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.
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
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.
One of your best interviews yet james always liked bellew as a boxer and a person and this interview has made me like him even more he comes across an honest genuinely nice guy he deserves everything he's worked for
Excellent interview, the last few have been really good. Tony seems a lot more chilled since he's retired. Took me back particularly to goodison where he looked a write off and won a world title. Great watch.
Many people try this format, but you make it flow. I don't like Tony as a person, but I enjoyed his story and the journey you brought him through. One of your best interviews m8 👍
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.
What a humble guy, ppl can say what they want but this guy is as genuine as they come, he grew up with a dream, here followed that dream and conquered that Dream, I personally admire him very much so
Never disappointed with the boxing interviews ....the ones I've watched ....nothing to prove, been there done that and always the most down to earth ....top men James and Bomber ...
awesome watch, bellew earned what he got good luck to him ,hard life and a warrior! Well done james on a high profile figure on your great show,a warrior in your own right too.
Top bloke.... true warrior! The amount of arguments I got into before loads of his fights where no one believed he would win and the amount of times I was right!
This was excellent, I met Tony a few years ago with my lads football team and he couldn’t have been nicer, a real gentleman. I always liked him and followed him before that but after I liked him even more.
Great interview once again. Really felt for him on SAS, you could see he was struggling mentally. However he now seems like he is mentally stronger, and in a great place. Brilliant 💪
Excellent again, mainly thanks to James. Most guests have a brilliant story, but how James lets them tell it, asks the right questions and allows them to answer is what makes it great. You should look to get John Kavanagh from SBG one if you can James - very interested to hear his actual life story.
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!
I just love listening to Tony Bellew, unlike some of these geezers James English has interviewed, who love the sound of their own voices, he just is not like that, he remains so engaging but underneath it he is humble. Yes would simply hate to have him as an enemy, but love to have him as a mate. Happiness is an impossible thing to find I think, but contentedness shines out of his every word, even if he will always have itchy feet to do things.
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.
This has been the best interview you have done James. As a viewer I was on a roller coaster of emotions. I laughed with you both and at times she’d a tear,(I lost someone recently so could relate). Tony seems like an absolute diamond and a real good guy. Thanks mate I really enjoyed it 👊
Nice 👍 One James, that has to be the most enjoyable of all ya podcasts in my humble opinion. I think you enjoyed it as well considering all the laughter you both shared. Tony Bellew comes over as a truly down to earth solid scouser. Anyway big thanks again and all the best for the future, Cheers.

The best interview by James English by far. Bellew speaks from the heart and totally raw. Great Champion and a fellow Evertonian.
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
What a bloke. Straight down the line and no bullshit. Loved this podcast. Amazing

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.
Family, loyalty and respect. The guy is all about these things. How can you knock that
James is a great interviewer and Tony seems genuine, very honest and likeable. Really enjoyed this!

First opportunity I've had to watch this interview James it was BRILLIANT . What a great bloke Tony Bellew is .
Excellent podcast again.Mr Bellew comes across as genuine and grounded.Rare qualities in today's world.
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
Honest and honourable hard to find in a person, well done Tony
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
One of the best podcasts this one. Great genuine man Tony.. keep them coming James

@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

Bellews always been a top lad, nothing but love and respect for him and I'm a red.
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
The best interview by far. Tony you're a champ 👍🏾✌️

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.
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.
Good to see Tony on the podcast mate, loved watching his fights when he beat makabu, great night
You can't come away from this interview, top notch, much appreciated 👍🏻
Brian cockerill taught tony all he knows about boxing 🥊 he’s just phenomenal he defies the laws of physics
This is a great interview. One of the only two hour interviews I’ve watched form start to finish
👍🏼
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

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!
