    What did both fighters weigh? I'm watching the fight now but everything but fight action has been edited out.

      The point was, Haye being the ripped, super fast, executioner of a puncher, was going to "kill" (according to some here) Bellew. Despite the injury, Bellew took Haye's punch. Thats really the story. The problem is, and I say this taking nothing away from Bellew, who did a tremendous job, Haye was never the fighter hyped as he was. Haye has always been an ambush fighter, not an aggressive relentless attacker. Haye was just never as good as he was made to seem, despite being a talented, hard punching, legit heavyweight/cruiser.

      For some of us who have been on this earth a while its laughable to compare, someone like Tyson, or Holyfield, for example, both guys who could do harm (for different reasons) to a guy who always fought relatively infrequently, who looked great physically...(so did Raquel Welch, and she wasn't known for her punching), who was just never that outstanding to begin with.
      I agree and disagree fella...cruiserweight he was a very skilled and hard punching fighter and few would have beat him..as a heavyweight he was to small and could never compete with the heavies of today and we saw that with the wlad fight ,the moment he moved up to heavyweight and bulked up was the moment he starteed to get injured ....if he had stayed at cruiserweight and never got suckered into the glizty show biz world he wouod have been a champion for a long time...haye as a cruiserweight was immensely skilled IMO

        unbelievable result. At the beginning I was feeling sorry for Bellew thinking he would get badly hurt, I never imagined that at the end of the fight I would be feeling sorry for Haye

          Reading a lot of these comments saying Bellew beat an injured fighter...

          Come on people, Haye didn't even complain himself, that whole wrap up Job was done on purpose,

          Just admit Bellew fought the smarter fight, he said what he would do, and he done it, no excuses..
          Fair play to him

              He fell over 6 times throwing punches, he was injured likely career ending. I swear no one on here actually watches boxing, just read article and b1tch

                Good win for Tony,injury or not, and he is nothing but a blown up super middleweight...Haye showed a lot of what he does not have...

                    Wow! Thought Haye would crush him! I haven't watched it yet. Haye hurt himself again? He is very injury prone. Hats off to Bellew injury or not. He just got himself another big payday lined up at HW. I'm assuming he vacates the CW title. Wilder, Joshua or winner of Parker/Fury. Haye should hang it up. I don't know if it was a pre-fight injury or happened during the fight. Either way he can't barely make it through a training camp without getting hurt. Very fragile! I'd be surprised if he continues on. Cong**** to Bellew for this big win.

                      What a crazy and fun fight! This card was pretty good top to bottom. Paulie Malignaggi almost even got a knockdown and hurt his opponent.

                      The chick fight was cool... Got to see the cute chick whoop up on one FUGLY lookin dude!!!
