Comments Thread For: Bellew: I Would Beat Haye Again, Possibly Stop Him Sooner!

Yeah, Haye looked terrible. His technique was absolutely awful. Speed, movement, accuracy...all very very poor.

How much of that was down to any pre fight injury I don't know. I think he's just finished at top level.

That's right - he's finished. He had looked exactly the same against the two corpses he KOd before the Bellew fight.

People want to blame the injury and that's fine. But the real issue lie in the fact yes, Haye is done, not the same boxer.

Bellew beats him again. The fight would be huge, why not make it

Haye looked slow before the injury.


Like i'm talking, REALLY SLOW

Haye was winning the fight easily before the injury. Bellew looked more tired than Haye did. Bellew got lucky.

And? Haye landed 4x more punches than Bellew in the round before the injury. He was in control of the fight.

He got very fortunate. That's about as much as you can say. In fact, he had a hard time against a cripple.
But, I fully support his right to rag on Haye.

One could say of this fight "we learned a lot" but not much about a contest between Haye and Bellow:

a) Somewhere is a guy who won a fortune because he bet that "Haye and Bellew would embrace" after the fight So we know they can overcome their grudge.

b) We all knew that Bellew would have to lose the early rounds, to survive, possibly tire Haye out, to have a chance...Well Bellew did lose the early rounds while Haye could fight.

c) We learned, to be fair...Bellew took a few shots to the chops, though Haye was compomised.

So, we didn't learn much of anything really, except that Haye really does get horrendous injuries every fight...I believe him! and Bellew probably should not try for the KO, probably should use the same strategy and lose the early few rounds and try to come on strong....There is a considerable liklihood that Haye will have another injury!
