Tony Bellew interview on Manchester massacre

[thomasjkelley]

This is a fascinating interview with Cruiserweight Tony Bellew on the Islamic terror attack in Manchester May 22, 2017. I did not know much about Tony previous to this but he has instantly become one of my favorite fighters. I'm an American but my heart swelled up with British pride hearing this Englishman speak his mind about his country & countrymen. I don't know the man personally but in this interview he portrayed himself as a credit to all Brits & to mankind. Interview starts at 25 seconds. You will love this interview and your opinion of Tony Bellew will be changed forever.

"Anybody who has links to these kinds of actions needs deporting or putting in incarceration,” he said.

Clearly angry and upset, Bellew decided to let it all out, saying: “You know what? I’m not even gonna lie to you. Hang them. Put them on the chair.”

He then goes on to discuss how this attack is a game changer, as terrorists deliberately targeted children and said that this tragedy will now be on every parent’s mind whenever their children go out.

Bellew also blasted the authorities, saying that the people had had enough and that “it’s only a matter of time before the people take control. Trust me, it will happen…we’ve got to stop this nicey-nicey approach, it can’t be all peace and politically correct, you’ve got to deal with these people the proper way.”

“Wipe them off the face of the earth.”

The chattering class in Westminster might laugh at the idea, but it’s becoming increasingly clear that people have had enough. Whoever wins on June 8th need to make protecting citizens their top priority. Enough is enough.

And can any Brits tell me what a "scouser" is?

My prayers go out to all of England.

Offal Topic

[thomasjkelley]

No Tanzio, it's not off topic, you whiny little brat. It's great insight to a fighter's personality. The sh#it that is on here? Seriously? I knew you would be the very first one to go crying. You PC cry baby.

[thomasjkelley]

Lol!

Fvck you tommyvulva. I have no problem with the subject but it is NOT about boxing, you pitiful little puke. It is an Offal Topic subject. Now resume crying in your embroidered hanky.

[thomasjkelley]

Of all the nonsense that is put on this thread, that you have partaken in & not complained, you are crying foul on a CURRENT SCENE thread over an interview with a highly ranked cruiserweight about a current scene. There are no rules that say you are the arbiter of what is fit for this thread. There is more off topic stuff on here than there is on topic. Half of the threads are fantasy role playing scenarios. You DO have a problem with the topic or you wouldn't have whinged. This is who you are and pretty much everybody knows it. I haven't posted here in a year because people like you have turned CS into their own little safe space, where they get to control the narrative & censor opinions that cause them hurt feelings. Now go on and write your letters and and contact the mods & do what you have to do in order to soothe your regressive soul. There is nothing, I repeat, NOTHING, that is more current scene than a current top fighter in the current cruiserweight division, discussing current events. Nobody knew a lick about Tony Bellew until this interview and you want to deprive genuine fight fans of this gem because you have lived a sheltered life and have a deep sense of entitlement. Now I'm sorry I had to be mean to you but it is necessary. For the record, this hurt me more than it hurt you.

Bvllsh!t, from start to finish, pure and simple. I am not crying foul you pathetic little twit. I am simply pointing out that, imo, this belongs on Offal Topic.

I haven't turned CS into anything you senseless cocktail condiment. What a paranoid little pocket puppy you are?

Current Scene is about boxing. Fvck you and your political agenda. Take it to Offal Topic where it belongs and I will be happy to comment on Bellew's emotional statements. That is where it belongs.

Maybe you did not know "a lick" about Tony Bellew prior to this tragic crime, but don't proclaim to us what we know of him. Every boxer has an opinion on this incident, just as every poster on here does, but it has nothing, zero to do with the current scene in boxing.

Then you accuse me of living a sheltered life you piece of human waste. I have seen worse than Manchester up close and personal, you shrieking pool of puss. I have fought all of my life against the forces that would laugh at the rights that you take for granted.

I am not good or evil you naive little violet. You are fortunate that I am on your side.

[Nightmare Roy]

Whilst agree with him on a lot of what he says, I'd stay away from bringing back stoning, isn't that what these fcukers want any way?

[asdfjkl]

I don't like stoning either, I don't want to spent so much time on them, just put them in a cage with a bunch of pigmeat and beer to eat and drink for the rest of their lives.

[EdwinValero]

And can any Brits tell me what a "scouser" is?

A scouser is the name given to us people from the greatest city on earth, Liverpool.

(maybe i'm slightly biased )

[Thomastearns]

For once Bellew's over the top manner is understandable. He is not trying to sell anything here. Brave man.

The key point is whether our government is doing enough to protect our people.

[Best Coast]

I agree with Bellew that the Jihadists need to be killed, although stoning is off the wall. This article just came out today based on reports from the San Bernardino Jihadist Massacre of December 2015. This is how it's done:

http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-m ... story.html

An autopsy determined that Farook had “27 discernible gunshot entry wounds” to his chin and neck, chest, thighs, legs, arms, feet and buttocks.

Malik’s body was inside the SUV. She was also heavily armed. The autopsy determined she had been shot at least 15 times.

For each of the officers involved in the shooting, the report determined that the “use of deadly force was a proper exercise of his right of self-defense and the defense of others” — and therefore legally justified.

“Faced with two heavily armed suspects who had already executed 14 innocent unarmed civilians and critically injured 22 others, the officers involved put their lives at risk to prevent what may have been a second mass shooting,” the report says.

“Despite the suspects being heavily armed and completely reckless in shooting at law enforcement on a crowded residential street, no more civilians or law enforcement were killed.”

In my mind the purpose of this board is to discuss the current boxing scene, which includes all aspects of the real-world that have some sort of immediate or impending affect on our beloved sport.

The person discussing this issue is Tony Bellew, who is very much a currently-active high profile boxer.

Also, the implications of Monday’s terror attack at the Ariana Grande concert have direct real-world implications for all current stadium-filling events in the UK, such as the Brook-Spence Jr. event being staged on Saturday at the Bramall Lane venue in Sheffield.

Whilst you may personally feel that the topic under discussion is utterly irrelevant to boxing, tragedies such as this not only affects the whole community (including fighters who themselves have also had children attend their own stadium-filling events, such as Tony Bellew), but there are obvious consequences to the fans attending and the security present at similarly high-capacity audience venues (such as the Brook-Spence Jr. fight).

[squiggy]

Whilst agree with him on a lot of what he says, I'd stay away from bringing back stoning, isn't that what these fcukers want any way?

That's one incredible aspect of extreme violence, how it almost always causes widespread reactionary desire to answer with extreme violence. In this case, the sentiment to "go back to the medieval times," as Bellew actually said here, is literally the exact same kind of call that ISIS extremists have motivated each other with from day one.
P.S. I agree that, despite the presence of a boxer and the relation to something "current," this thread ought to be moved.

Amir Khan has spoken out against the terrorist attack on Manchester this week, with the former world boxing champion saying that the bombing does not truly represent the Muslim faith.
“It definitely worries me because at the end of the day I’ve got my little girl and, you can just see as time goes on it’s only getting worse and worse,” he said on Wednesday’s Good Morning Britain. “And it worries me one day when she goes to school [that] people are going to be pointing a finger at her and thinking you’re Muslim and it gives all Muslims a bad name. “I think Muslims all have to stick together now. In all different religions there’s always good and bad. Me being a Muslim, this is something that’s against my religion – killing innocent people. In the Quran it doesn’t say that you should kill innocent people, this is something we’re all against so I think for sure we should all stick together and stop things like this happening.”
When asked about people’s fears in reporting radicalisation, Khan (who lives in Bolton in the Greater Manchester area) added: “If people are watching this, if there is a lot of Muslims out there who know information, I think they should definitely go out there because this is giving all us Muslim people a bad name. I’m a Muslim. I’m a little bit scared walking the streets myself with my little girl because anything can happen.”
“Obviously I know people are pointing the finger at Muslims, but are we really sure that it is Muslim because this is something that is totally against our religion, if these people are saying they’re doing it because of Islam I really believe that’s not true. They’re twisting Islam and they’re just making it worse for everybody.”
Speaking more generally about the attack, Khan said that it was “very upsetting,” while praising the response from the people of Manchester that has involved taxi drivers offering free rides and members of the public opening their homes to those in need.
“One thing about Manchester, everyone gets on with each other... If you look since the bomb happened, and the incident happened, a lot of the local restaurant owners, taxi drivers are helping each other, dropping food off at hospitals, supporting them in any way we can.
“We all need to stick together; we are going through such a very tough time now where the people in Manchester all have to stick together. It’s wrong, whoever did this, it’s wrong.”

Bellew's opinion on Manchester should carry no more weight on the subject than any other boxer's opinion on this or any other sociopolitical issue, or for that matter any other boxing fan's opinion. Are the opinions related to boxing? Tenuously.

Shall we begin posting every boxer's opinion on religion, war, politics, gourmet cooking, fashion, etc., in their own thread on Current Scene because it is a window into a boxer's life and soul? I do not give a sh!t what boxers think about anything other than boxing on Current Scene.

Take it to Offal Topic where worthless, ignorant opinions belong, they can be exposed for their worthlessness and ignorance, and they don't clog up our forum for discussing boxing. Fvck everyone's opinions on anything other than boxing matches and opinions of boxing people on boxing subjects on this forum.

Go discuss that other sh!t on Offal Topic where the rest of us do.

What the fvck does Tony Bellew's opinion about a tragic crime have to do with boxing, other than he is a boxer?

You see that post above about what Amir Khan is thinking on the subject? I could have started a(nother) worthless thread about another boxer's point of view on Current Scene, but it does not belong here. This is a boxing forum.

Take your opinions about everything not boxing related, no matter where it springs from, to Offal Topic, or go watch Hannity or some other knobhead as ignorant on the subject as you are.

It causes me no distress whatsoever, similar to your multiple accounts on here. How many is it now Verlich(myass)te? Oh, that's right, you've reverted back to your Nolight-On personality.

Your argument is weak, no matter your name at the moment. This thread belongs in Offal Topic based on the history of the forums. Whether or not the mods move it there is not my problem, and I don't report or ignore anyone on here for anything.
