VIDEO: Tony Bellew Once Knocked Out Michael B Jordan While Filming Creed

Over the course of time, boxing lovers have witnessed umpteen stalwarts from the sport take to the big screen to display their terrifying skill sets. However, often while filming these action-packed movies, boxers tend to face actors who have zero experience of boxing. As a result, sometimes, their actions turn violent, leaving their co-actors in jeopardy. That said, a similar case took place when the former boxing hotshot, Tony Bellew, landed one of his hits on co-actor, Michael B. Jordan.

The duo had to shoot a fight scene together for the film Creed and they began acting the way they were supposed to. However, in the sequence, Tony Bellew threw a fiery punch at Jordan, sending him to the canvas.

The British boxer thought Jordan would defend his power punch as they did the entire scene in slow motion before. But as Jordan couldn’t judge the power coming off ‘Bomber’s hands, he fell unconscious.

Later, Sylvester Stallone, the prime star of the Creed series, posted this video on his Twitter handle and praised Jordan. ‘Sly’ wrote, “Michael B Jordon, “young creed and “getting KO’d for real! But he got up and did it again! That’s called guts!!”
