Tony Bellew called out for fight after wading into row after Anthony Joshua bout

Jermaine Franklin's coach has called out Tony Bellew for a charity exhibition bout after the pair's altercation at The O2 arena in London last weekend.

American Lorenzo Reynolds was confronted by Bellew after his fighter was defeated by Anthony Joshua in their heavyweight showdown when the two competitors had a scuffle following the final bell. Former cruiserweight champion Bellew was annoyed by Reynolds getting involved in the confrontation and ran in to defend his pal, causing a further scene outside the ring.

And now Reynolds has claimed he would be interested in throwing the gloves on at the age of 55 and taking on retired 40-year-old Bellew in an exhibition bout. The pair are both former fighters, although the American never quite reached his rival's heights of world titles after going 15-0 as a professional.
