Bellew floors Haye and sets sights on future fights

TONY BELLEW insists he will continue to fight and has targeted Tyson Fury and Andre Ward as potential future opponents.

The 35-year-old stopped David Haye in five rounds in their rematch at London’s O2 Arena last night, dropping the former WBA heavyweight champion three times and leaving him to consider retirement.

Despite his victories at heavyweight and the fact he continues to improve, Bellew recognises his natural size compared to that of reigning world champions Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder means they are too big and powerful for him to challenge.
