Bellew, who became cruiserweight champion last year but has since been made ‘Champion Emeritus’ after moving to heavyweight, has been pursued by the future Hall of Famer but would never fight him.

“The thing is, I know Roy Jones really well and whenever I’ve seen him in the States he’s asked me about fighting Tony, especially since Tony won the cruiserweight title,” Bellew’s trainer, Dave Coldwell, told Boxing News.

“I had a message from him a few weeks ago where he was asking for the fight, no disrespect to Roy Jones but it’s not something Tony would entertain, he shouldn’t be boxing as far as we’re concerned. He’s not the name that he used to be, it’s not an option really.”

Hard not to see it any other way, if I was him I would take the option of facing Parker - he has a decent chance of winning that!
