Think they did yeah as amateurs, probably how they first met and became mates. Nothing serious I doubt, I know they never fought in any official amateur contest.
Bellew never was a Heavyweight though was he? Well he was, but only in the amateurs, and therefore really a Cruiserweight, as the amateurs' Heavyweight has a 91kg limit.
I'm sure they've sparred a **** load. Amteurs together, mates, top pros together, both in Liverpool etc I'm sure they've settled a couple of Everton vs Liverpool debates the proper way and the only way Liverpool scum know how :yep
i remember seeing an interveiw with big pricey and he said that him and bellew used to have some wars sparring when both was training with team gb
