Tony Bellew and Deontay Wilder exchange clips on Twitter after promoter offers hope

Tony Bellew's heavyweight adventure looks set to continue.

Having put away a former champion in David Haye two months ago, Bellew is looking around at the current crop of top heavyweights with plenty of interest. While Bellew was eager to throw his name in the ring for a monster payday opposite Anthony Joshua after Saturday night's main event, that bout looks rather unlikely when you take into account the queue of current champions and mandatory challengers waiting patiently for a shot at 'AJ'. What's very likely, however, is a crack at WBC heavyweight kingpin Deontay Wilder. Bellew and Wilder shared the screen for Sky Sports' coverage of the monster pay-per-view last weekend, where they carried on from their war of words which took place at the weigh-ins a day earlier. After both Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko took to the scales, IFL TV cameras captured the entourages of both Bellew and Wilder clashing with only a barrier separating them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWEi0Lakf8E While on analysis duty for the fights, the pair seemed to verbally agree to a bout of their own, shaking hands after exchanging verbals in Wembley Stadium. On Tuesday morning, Wilder reignited the war of words on Twitter by showing off his brutal knockout victory over Siarhei Liakhovich in 2013, suggesting that the Liverpudlian would struggle with Wilder's power. https://twitter.com/BronzeBomber/status/859326725301207040 But 'Bomber' didn't take long to respond, as he shared footage of the conclusion of his one and only fight at heavyweight to date, when he stopped Haye in the 11th round at London's O2 Arena. https://twitter.com/TonyBellew/status/859391769213104128 The interest would certainly be there in a Wilder vs. Bellew match-up and the American's promoter, Lou DiBella, has told Bellew's representative to get in touch. "This is a fight that's US versus UK and a fight with Tony certainly might help that story line right? I think it's certainly interesting," DiBella told Sky Sports. "Eddie Hearn knows how to reach me."
