    I admit I was wrong about Bellew

    He outdone Haye, much respect to you.

    As for Haye, very sad seeing such a great fighter being done over like that.

      Haye's achilles went again but props to both men not making excuses. Bellew is a smart boxer (something I learned after the first Cleverly fight) with tonnes of heart but he lacks the quality to beat Usyk, Gassiev, AJ and even Wilder.

          I mean... I can't be the only one who sees this is the other leg and therefore the achilles from the 1st fight wasn't an issue?

          Or am i going crazy?

            Yeah man, I thought FOR SURE, that Haye would have come in with better conditioning and defense for this one. I can't believe how far he has fallen, it's sad. Credit to Bellew, he has more in the tank than Haye does at this point but Ortiz, Wilder, AJ, Povetkin, Miller, Parker, Ruiz Jr all beat him convincingly.

            It appears he did hurt his achilles again, and good for him on not using that as an excuse but like my boy Sergio Martinez, your body will eventually just give out on you and then it's a wrap.

              Haye was injured although his tatics were right he doesnt have the physicality to pull it off
              Wide punches with your hands down opens you up to counters and thats exactly what happened, he got caught during mid exchange. Bellew had shorter straighter punches and got to the target first.

                Perhaps age has caught up to him, he got hit with shots where he usually avoids through good foot work, but the better man won

                  I thought Tony looked pretty sharp last night, probably the best I've seen him. Great performance.
