The trial tease is 6 mins in where he seems to be doing well, running comical commentary is his MO that makes trials go from usual tedium that people go make a tea to cure the boredom, too actually enjoyable and watchable. This on the run in, just pushes him on and gives him continuous momentum. accompanied by being the gentle giant around camp, looking after the girls and babysitting Sam makes him unstoppable force of nature.

True and deserving King me thinks

As said borg, if he continues on same path i think he wins by a mile, just preying he don't snap or show a dark side. Seems to be showing tons of discipline through years of boxing so signs are he stays true.

Looks close, but if farage has any vote i think bellew would get most of that transfer

yes Stu the transport that is conveying us to crown is a plane, hence my fist refrence to take off in the 2nd post on the thread, and initial destination was outperforming price, that was before we rerouted towards the crown!
Bomber, it was always a planeAngry

She would of been proud of him for sure, its human nature to say these things slippy and show emotion, some do it privately some don't. i feel tony is the former

TBF, if they did want him to win (still a big if) then showing him talking about it could seal a deal for sure. If they didn't want him winning the might just ignore it though, and leave it on the editing floor...

Tony has been very brave fulfilling his contract and been strong in keeping his emotions in check, i think he was very close to his nan and all his family...scousers are a close unit family wise, you know like the boswells in bread, not saying the rest of the county are not but northerners in general are. its a harder way of life up north compared to the south, its always been that way. meaning family's are a lot closer to each other and i say that being born and bred in the south.

correct stu, a significant portion of the audience will not know about his loss or what he's going through and how strong he is being.
By:
armagnac
When: 04 Dec 23 18:58
im not sure its about winning or losing for the prods, even though it would be massive for his chances. Its more about what one person is going through in there lives, personal struggles etc and more importantly there willingness to discuss it. josie's weight issues and sam's ADHD are examples of this, tony's recent loss might just be way too soon for him to be pushed on or shown. he clearly said this after the letter, his life is very private to him. you have to feel this is tony's decision whether this is aired or not.

Yes of course, I was just joshing but you're no doubt correct about Tony in that respect.

Tony said: "I signed the day before she passed away, so there was no going back then. If I sign something, I honour my agreement. In an ideal world I would have left it but I had signed. I was coming, so I am here. But I am going back to bury her on the 15th. I was going to renegade if I couldn't move the burial date. I can bury her now when I get back."

Paying tribute to Rose, who he described as "the boss of the house" on social media, he added: "She was in a home. And she told my mum 'I'll be able to watch that[I'm A Celeb] every night'. So yeah, it is what it is. She'll be watching, you know, from wherever she is and whatever she's doing. She was a diamond of an old lady. She was wonderful."

He continued: "I come from a single parent household, my dad left when I was 10. So when you come from where I come from, your Nan helps around a lot because your mother goes to work. So your nan is your second mum. She was a lovely, lovely woman, and she had the heart of gold, so she'll be missed by all of us. Me and my brothers and my mother and my dad by the way as well."


Laid back Tony, a former cruiserweight world champion who also twice defeated David Haye, said he signed up for the show mainly to give his kids some memories and fun as they normally watch the series at home in Liverpool, whilst his wife Rachael also fancied a trip to Australia with their three sons. "They'll be here having an absolute scream while I'm sitting there starving," he said with a grin.


Diehard Everton fan Tony does not class himself as a celebrity and despite his past in the ring, has no plans for a big entrance or for bust ups when he arrives in camp this week.

He said: "I'm sure I'll just be another one of the characters. I get along with anyone, I don't have any problems, any issues. I'm pretty easy going. My wife says to me, I'm that laid back if I was any more laid back I would be asleep. I was always calm fighting and I love fighting. It's the best thing. It was the only thing I'm good at. So yeah, nothing fazes me. Nothing bothers me.


"Life was much easier when I could punch people in the face and get paid. Life's a lot more difficult now that I'm out of that game, and I haven't hit someone in the face since, I can't remember who I fought[in the ring], he obviously didn't hit me very hard! The last time I took or gave a punch would have been that night[fighting Oleksandr Usyk in 2018] and I have no intentions of giving one or taking one anytime soon."



ony has criticised Nigel Farage on social media in the past, describing him as an "absolute maniac" for his opinion on immigration in 2022. But he insisted he would give him the benefit of the doubt in camp whilst also giving current politicians a verbal jab.

On Farage, Tony added: "He's just another human being exactly the same as myself. I don't know him. So, like the other 11 people in there, I'll get to know him and I'm sure we'll go from there. So he's another human. He's just another person. He hasn't done anything to me personally. So yeah, you just find a way to get along with people. You're going into a camp, you're basically all living in each other's pockets. Get on with each other. I don't see why you wouldn't want it and why you would want to make it a nice experience and a pleasant experience for anyone. So yeah.

"I haven't got a clue about politics. And nor do I want to have a clue about politics. People who do have a clue about politics look like they haven't got a clue what to do. So I'm just happy go lucky. I'm from a different world to these people. And I don't actually class myself as a celebrity. I'm just someone who was good at punching people in the face."

Despite being a hard man of the ring, Tony insisted he had lots of fears going into camp. He enjoyed cuddling a koala for photos after the interview but is not looking forward to meeting other Aussie animals.



He said: "There's not much that I'm not scared of to be honest. You wouldn't think that but that's the truth. I'm sure it'll work itself out. I mean, who likes rats? Who likes mice? Who likes snakes? Who likes cockroaches? No one. If you show me someone who does like those things, I'll show you a weirdo. It should be a fascinating experience to say the least."

on his insta he wrote

Who is adding anything new now?  You've had peak bellew for 2 episodes, they've all reached that boredom threshold
By:

When: 05 Dec 23 00:18
tony's best bits are the trials, thats where we get the humour. He's serious around camp and lovely towards the ladies but he needs both together to really shine.
marvin will probably do the trial later, nick must want to do one but time is running out. farage and sam will deffo want more and tony being so nice will let others go 1st i fear.
could be thursday/friday before he gets a look in.
