Tony Bellew has explained he "didn't want the trouble" which arose from a ringside altercation he had with members of Jermaine Franklin's team last night.
The American was defeated by Anthony Joshua, a close friend of Bellew's, in what was a relatively routine comeback fight after two losses for the Brit. But the real excitement came after the bell when both Brits found themselves in feisty situations, Joshua inside the ring with Franklin and Bellew outside of it with a teammate.
Footage captured by Mirror Fighting at ringside saw Bellew being taken away by security after yelling something at a member of Franklin's corner team. The incident took place just after a bit of post-fight handbags between Joshua and Franklin that had taken place in the ring following a testy final round between the pair.
