\u201cIt’s a very tough job being an analyst and a pundit,\u201d Bellew said. \u201cBut the fact is, I know more because I\u2019ve experienced it. Now, I don\u2019t want to go down that at all \u2018because I’ve done it, I know\u2019 but when you\u2019ve been there, seen it and done it and know what\u2019s going on, it\u2019s like, unless you’ve been in a boxing ring and you\u2019ve fought, you can\u2019t call a fighter a quitter. I’m sorry, you can’t. You just can\u2019t, because you don\u2019t know what he\u2019s going through. You don\u2019t know what’s going on. You can\u2019t envision that. Now, I can come out and say that because I\u2019ve been where he’s been. I’ve felt what he’s felt. And I know for a fact, he spewed it. I can categorically say he didn\u2019t want to fight no more because I\u2019ve been there and I\u2019ve felt it and I\u2019ve done it. So it\u2019s things like that. But I\u2019m careful and I hate using that word quitter because I don\u2019t think any fighter\u2019s really a quitter. I just think he\u2019s reached his threshold and he can\u2019t take no more. Does that mean he\u2019s quit? No, because he goes back to gym next week and he goes again. The man who never quits is the man who never gets truly defeated. It\u2019s hard. But I just try and say it just as I see it. I\u2019m loyal. I\u2019m loyal beyond belief. And I\u2019ve got a lot of love for certain people in the game. People will say, \u2018Yeah, I\u2019m up Eddie Hearn\u2019s arse.\u2019 I\u2019ve got a lot of love for Eddie because he\u2019s my friend and I got on great with him. Didn\u2019t always get on great, but we had a common ground and what we shook hands on, what we agreed, got dealt with and got done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cIt’s a very tough job being an analyst and a pundit,\u201d Bellew said. \u201cBut the fact is, I…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":339481,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,6102,10078,101,16990,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-339480","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-boxing","9":"tag-boxing-news","10":"tag-boxingscene","11":"tag-sports","12":"tag-tony-bellew","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom","15":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339480","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=339480"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339480\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/339481"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=339480"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=339480"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=339480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
