Tyson Fury will be knocked out inside three rounds if he takes on WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder, says Tony Bellew.
Fury fights Francesco Pianeta at Windsor Park, Belfast, on Saturday, with his potential opponent Wilder expected to be ringside.
The outspoken rivals could meet next, but Bellew not only mocked Fury's second comeback fight, he also dismissed his chances of defeating 'The Bronze Bomber' this year.
"He is definitely not ready for Deontay Wilder," Tony Bellew says.
"At the minute it's a bit of a freak show with Tyson Fury," Bellew told Sky Sports.
"But to be fair he has been out of the ring for the best part of three years and he hasn't lived the best lifestyle, so you can't expect to come back into this sport and this business and take on top competitors.
"He is definitely not ready for Deontay Wilder.
"Pianeta is a 6ft 5in, 17 1/2 stone southpaw. How is that preparing him - in any way, shape or form - for a 6ft 7in, possibly the biggest puncher in the whole world?"
Bellew is set to step back down to cruiserweight to challenge Oleksandr Usyk for all four major world titles after two victories over David Haye, a heavyweight who had been due to face Fury in 2013. (Sky Sports)
