    Haye is way past his best, jesus when he farts dust comes out, but still beats bellew whenever he wants.

    Terrible fight, there will be more action in the build up.

    Haye got 5M and Harrison 1M.. so 4M each sounds about right..

    Bizzare fight in a year of bizzare fights.

    If tony can avoid Hayes power i could see him winning this the problem is he tends to be a bit one paced and inaccurate and Hayes power will probably carry the day for him being the naturally bigger guy.

    Odd fight

    Haye dramatic KO win unless Bellew just goes on one knee the moment he feels the air swish past him from a Hayemaker. This is nothing to do with boxing but ALL to do with money but it's the fans that will be the ONLY losers in this fight.

    Haye-Harrison did around 750K so it'll at least match that I reckon..

    This is a ridiculous fight, soon as haye lands it's over, even Briggs is less than a farce.

    Look how easy it was for ****ing BJ Flores to land on Bellew. It blows my mind more people aren't seeing how great a mismatch this is. It's the same scenario with Brook-GGG. I was telling everyone here that was a gross mismatch yet some people had Brook as a winner in that fight lol.

    A little underrating with Bellew.. since I'd probably favour Stevenson to unify at LHW and Bellew to unify at CW.. and the 2 meeting.. well I'd favour Bellew..


    So with that mind.. would you not think it's an even matchup?


    Obviously ya'll Usyk lovers over here though..

    If it's not even a good fight haye will look worse than ever reputation wise, he will be one of the big jokes of boxing history, conning the fans throughout his heavyweight career. Guess he don't care much but it's a shame really, he always had the ability to have a decent legacy.
    He chose the money, smoke and mirrors route. Shows you the person he is really, probably not a bad guy but no where near the mentality to be a decent champ, just a lazy con artist. This fight might sound fun but I despise it personally, even if the buildup is entertaining. I half expect it not to even happen knowing this guy, no trust for him at all as a boxing fan.

    Spot on mate!

    In all honesty though beyond the joke, we do not know what Haye has left, he never had a great chin, so if Bellew lands he could hurt him no doubt.

    Most likely a quick Haye win though where he leaves the fight with less credit as per usual.

    Good post.

    And interesting that Haye seems to be taking all the baiting that Bellew throws at him, yet when he fought Chisora it was Haye who was playing it cool and suggesting we'd see him do his talking come fight night.

    Wouldn't it be hilarious to see Haye humbled by an average Cruiser, oh wait didn't The Cat do that years ago lol.
