From Hollywood actor to world champion boxer

Sport Today

Available for over a year

Last year the British fighter Tony Bellew took some time away from the sport to star alongside Sylvester Stallone in the Hollywood movie Creed. Now he's a world champion. The British Boxer is a life long supporter of Everton football club and in the movie Creed he plays a character who has a world title fight at Goodison park stadium. On Sunday night he fulfilled a life long ambition by winning the world cruiserweight in an outdoor ring erected at Everton's football ground, stopping Ilunga Makabu of DR Congo in three rounds. He's been re-living the night with Ade Adedoyin and admitted nerves nearly got the better of him... (Photo; Tony Bellew with the belt, Credit; Getty Images)
