Comments Thread For: Tony Bellew Drops, Stops David Haye in MASSIVE Upset

[uniquehump]

I didn't see the fight, but hearing that Haye had suffered an injury and it may have started during training camp, I think he was caught in a Catch 22. He should of postponed the fight, but he's known for cancelling and postponing fights due to injury so he went on with the fight anyways and he may of took Bellow way to lightly to want to fight him with an injury. Either way, it was a lose, lose situation for Haye and he had to choose. Maybe he gets a rematch at the end of the year. If I'm Bellow, I wouldn't give it to him. For Haye, this was probably career ending and will take too long for him to get back on top. He's like 36 years old and it will take much of the year to recover and it'll be 2018 before they schedule him another fight. Maybe now he'll give Briggs a shot..... Or maybe Briggs will decide if he'll give Haye a shot.

People on this forum need to get real. It should be about boxing fans discussing boxing but always ends up being about hate, racism or which countries we're all from. Any idiot can see that the injury decided the fight. Haye deserves credit for continuing as long as he did. Bellew deserves credit for taking some decent shots. There are people on here who talk sense but you have to wade through 10 pages of rubbish to find them.

NO NO NO. We know nothing of any injury until Haye sees a doctor. Haye looked identical before this "injury", the injiry likely occurred from a punch anyways. I think people are bothered by taking credit away from Bellew, via claiming Haye "was injured in camp".

All i've got to say is that Haye's fans seem like they are a mirror image of Haye except Haye was actually gracious in defeat this time and didn't look for excuses, his fans should follow suit

sorry i mean this one, best comment for me of the night...

But Juicua is fighting Charles Martin and Deontays left-over and now beating on a old active HOF. OK.

It must really upet you that even an old haye and medicre bellew sells out 20k arenas ...and then we have the king of the division and anthony joshua who everybody wants to promote and Is considered the man of the division ..and your fighter with legs and wrists like a somalian , who fights bums and can't even sell out a 1000 seat arena in his sweet home alabama....bummmm squadddddd

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.

Joshua is fighting Klitschko next, and already has a resume greater than Wilder.

Come on, be SERIOUS. Don't accuse people of swerving Wilder when the guy has built his entire career on cans.

Well put bro!
