Comments Thread For: Haye Vows: Bellew Will Not See The Final Bell, Towel May Come In

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

David Haye has promised to do a real number on Tony Bellew, when they collide on Saturday night at the O2 Arena in London. They first collided in March 2017, at the same venue, with Bellew moving up from the cruiserweight division to pull off a major upset with an eleventh round stoppage of Haye, who was a huge favorite coming.

Haye will look ****** if Bellew knocks him out of the ring again.

Bellew may try to use a lot of lateral movement and also turn him to see if they can break that injury ridden body of Haye’s down. Hope Tony gets the win.

I think it's 50/50 at this point. Haye is the better boxer but not sure how his body will hold up.

Tony's win was a great upset, but it was a fluke and mostly due to Haye being injured if we're being fair. Predicting Bellew's corner stops it after a prolonged beating this time.

[Robbie Barrett]

Haye just needs to keep his cool, stick to straight punches instead of wild swings and he will outbox Bellew and eventually stop him.

Looking ****** seems to be Haye's forte

I'd like to see the hayemaker turn back the clock. But generally when an athletes body continually gets injured its the end of the road. Can't magically undo wear & tear.

For those who are experienced in fighting. You'll know that if haye is pulling a bicep just training in the thick of a fight his body will break down much quickly and more likely to.

Exactly. Haye fought nothing like himself in their first fight. I’m used to seeing that sniper style, picking openings and using reactions to stay out of the way, before landing a huge shot.

Instead he fought like a clown, coming clumsily forward and swinging like it was a bar brawl.

If he fights like old Haye, he’ll get Bellew out of there viciously.

Because we haven't seen a lot of Haye in the last few years, i think some peoples minds are still conditioned a little bit to think of Haye as still this fast, explosive fighter with power that is dangerous for anyone.

The reality of what we have to remind ourselves is that he is 37 with a body is probably wrecked through injuries that he can't stop picking up. The David Haye that we knew before likely doesn't exist anymore. It's easy to make excuses for him, i.e the injury in the last fight, but that's not bad luck. It happened because his body can't cut it as a top athlete anymore.

I still think he's dangerous up to the point his body will allow him to be though but you just don't rewind the clock with the injuries and years out of the ring that he has had. As much as i'd love to see an explosive powerful Haye in the heavyweight mix in these times, that fighter existed about 7 years ago or more, pre career threatening injuries and a retirement.
