Lorenzo Reynolds, 55, still wants to settle his beef with The Bomber – albeit in an exhibition bout to raise funds for cancer-stricken children.
He told The Express: “I read an article with him [Bellew] saying he would’ve chinned me, and I just think it would be the opposite honestly. I’m in great shape.
“I’m in the shape of my life and he’s pretty much looking like, a 55-year-old soccer dad with a suit on.
“So, if Bellew has a problem we can do an exhibition and donate 50 per cent of the purse to kids who are fighting cancer, like James.”
Reynolds has accused former WBC cruiserweight king Bellew of harbouring a grudge against him before their ill-tempered clash.
He said: “There seemed like there was an issue on his end [Bellew’s] before the fight. I saw him at the weigh-in.
” And so, after the weigh-in, Jermaine and the team, we walked around the mall for a little while and we crossed paths with Bellew, and the guy who was walking with Bellew, he shook Jermaine’s hand.
“And Bellew, he rolled his eyes and turned his body and walked the other way.

“So, I don’t know if he just, you know, feels like since he’s in close proximity with Joshua, that he just had to kind of have a jerkish type behaviour.
“But that’s what I got from him. So, at the fight, it was like, ‘Wow. Okay. So there was already something there then.’”
Bellew blamed his handbags with Reynolds on the American moving aggressively to Joshua after the fight.
And Reynolds wants to put an end to their beef “like gentlemen.”
He said: “If Tony Belly, and make sure you say, I call him Tony Belly.

“If he knows where the gym is at, and he’s willing to sign for this exhibition then let’s do it.
“And like I said, 50 per cent of the money can go to cancer.
“We would love to take that, and we can handle our differences in the ring and then after the exhibition, we can drink some tea.
“But, definitely we have a disagreement and like, gentlemen, let’s handle it the right way in the boxing ring.
“We can do it that way because evidently, there’s some smoke that needs to be cleared.”
