    Haye's got the ability to destroy anyone in the first few rounds.. but do I think Bellew is good enough to last longer and maybe even match him? Yes..

    So I'm definitely going against the grain Haye is gonna KO him in the 1st..

    Haye's great.. but this is a match up of the world's best.. definitely in terms of a 200 vs. 200+.. I reckon.. I'll just rate Bellew high in terms of 200+ etc..

    Haye vs. Usyk people would say is a great matchup? (Usyk beat Majidov and all that)


    But Bellew is better than Usyk..

    I think you might be in the minority on that one

    Both Haye and Bellew would beat Wlad/Joshua.. if you take in account the thread about the toe and wet surface..

    So if Haye and Bellew have an even scrap.. don't use that as an anchor for either man..

    I like Caldwell but he's working for sky now. That means your opinions are no longer your own, they're aimed towards promoting whatever sky want you to promote.

    In saying that, Haye Bellew will do great numbers so I can't knock sky/match room for putting it on PPV, boxing is about money first and foremost whether we like it or not. But I'll be amazed if Bellew sees the mid rounds. First rush from Haye and it's lights out I feel.

    I think it's pretty funny that one would think fish eyes is any better?

    The only reason you don't see ppv's from Frank is down to him not having the box office fighters to pull it off.

    Let's remember the fighters themselves want to fight on ppv. Ppv is the the promised land and any fighter who says he doesn't want to fight on Sky sports box office is lying.

    For those who are think ppv should just be reserved for elite v elite.

    Kovalev v Ward did 160k buys in the US. 160k!!! Pay per views are not sold simply on the level of fighter and his competition.

    I have always been a big Bellew fan, I really hope he wins, I doubt it but Haye is such a tool with all his world title talk and boxing nobodies, he makes a mockery out of boxing and to think if all the boxers who have dedicated their life to it he should just **** off he makes it.like WWE

    I don't know how to say this gently so I'm just going to say it... Haye is going to punch Bellews head so hard it may very well pop. Easy win for Haye, unless he has shockingly deteriorated from the sort of form that saw him take out Mark De Mori in double quick time. Even if he came in at the sort of level as when he fought "The Cobra" (not quite De Mori version of Haye - worse camp) then this should still be a round, max.

    Add me to this that the 'annoying Scouse idiot' has sufficiently angered him and you've got to see this ending early and brutally.

    *this isn't an endorsement of David Haye. This fight proves nothing as to where he stands in the current heavyweight division.
