****** move by Fury's team.. Fury is tailor made for haye to bomb on.. If Cunningham dropped him, haye will knock his head off... I know Fury wanted to dodge the Pulev fight and Haye is a big money fight,
But man they are cashing out Fury quickly, I would have just avoided the elimantor with Pulev and then fought Wilder or banks, mitchell, etc...

Haye crushes him......

Ha ha ha, if only!

Tyson is too slow for more powerful and more skilful Haye.
It will be exciting but one-sided.

I see Haye inside 8 with KO/TKO.

I agree, there can be no other outcome.

Fury is susceptible to overhand rights, and Haye throws them hard.

Haye's name is there to be used and abused since he has no fight on the docket, so it could just be a convenient distraction from pulling out of the Pulev fight. Of course Fury would rather have the reward of taking the unique spot Haye has. It's a risk, but for the money and the recognition it's almost as good as a title shot. I wanted to see Vitali-Haye but this one is interesting too.

Anyway, first thoughts on is that if Fury earmuffs and comes forward, I think he will be able to drag it out to about the 8th and Haye will tire and an ugly beating will commence. He [Fury] might get dropped and have to weather an attack from a great finisher in Haye but if he doesn't get it, I wonder how his gas tank will be for the duration of the fight. I will go with a stoppage in between rounds.

Refereeing is key in this bout. Fury camp should get Smoger in.

Possibly, but Haye did pull out of the Charr fight, and that fight hasn't been rescheduled yet. Rescheduling a fight shouldn't be difficult. You think it would have been done by now.

Yes, at first I thought this was a bad move by Fury's team but not anymore. A string of defeat and your opportunity for big payouts is gone (at least temporarily). Even 1 loss can make you less profitable. Fury would make a lot fighting Haye. He is only 24 and has plenty of time to come back from a defeat.

By fighting Pulev, he might lose and not be much richer for it. Furthermore, he would have to win a number of fights to get himself back in position for a similar sized payout.

I agree with the poll. Thisd has Haye by KO written all over it but Im surprised it is so one side. I thought there woyuld be around 20% of people who think Tyson could weather the early storm and wrestle Haye in the closing rounds to wear him down.

Tyson wont march in with no respect for whats coming back at him like he did agaisnt Cunningham. He has to wear teh ear muffs for teh 1st few rounds and make Haye work all the time. If he can survive the early rounds and then start getting close then it will get interesting. My prediction is that Haye will stop him before it reaches that.

haye will probably give some rounds away early on inactivity alone, but evnetually he will catch up to lord fury with his bombs. mid round knockout.

big right hand to put him down, and a few haymakers to finish the job once he gets up. some of the hardest core of the *****s will complain of an early stoppage.

haye will go down as the greatest boxer to ever live, having beaten tyson fury and del boy chisora.
