TONY BELLEW had Jamie Carragher in stitches after likening the Liverpool legend and Geoff Shreeves to ‘Wolverine and his dad’.
The pair appeared on Sky Sports News on Saturday ahead of Everton’s 2-0 win over rivals Liverpool at Anfield.

A wind-swept Shreeves stood next to Carragher on the Anfield pitch, the ex-defender sporting a thick beard.
And retired boxing star Bellew poked fun at their lockdown looks.
The Toffees-mad Liverpudlian, 38, tweeted: “Just seen Wolverine and his father doing the pre-match analysis on SSN! #LockdownHaircutProblems.”
Carragher, 43, responded with laughing emojis, and asked: “Who’s is worse?”
Bellew replied: “Geoff’s wingbacks are quicker than yours mate so I’d have to say Geoff’s!”
Sky Sports presenter Jeff Stelling also teased the ex-defender and reporter Shreeves as he introduced the pair, remarking that they were proudly complying with the lockdown ban on barber shops opening.
Naturally, attention soon turned back to Bellew’s Everton taking on Carragher’s old club.
The boxer added: “Enough of this now.. Your lot are getting it!!!!!”

Liverpool’s shocking run of home form didn’t get any better as Everton won the Merseyside derby.
Richarlison and a late Gylfi Sigurdsson penalty were enough to see the Toffees win 2-0 – a result that leaves them level on 40 points with the Red but with a game in hand.
And Bellew was clearly delighted with the result, posting on social media throughout the match.
He posted a video of him and his family jumping around with the caption “GET IN!!!!”, before later adding:
Seamus knows what that win meant!! Don Carlo is the man! Everton football club we love all love you more than you’ll ever know!!!”
