    8:48 - the speed on that right hand triple combo is mad. Fastest heavyweight around by a mile.

    Also the biggest liar and fraud in uk boxing. IMO of course.

    Haye's a joke, but will win this very easy.

    The sad thing is this will be Haye's 2nd best win at HW.

    Not that many doubters are there really?

    He looks tight to me and his technique seems to be off . Like he's forcing his punches.

    He used to have precision punching it all looks a bit off to me. Maybe Shane is **** on the pads.

    Still he obviously has immense power and speed just not quite was he was. I remember watching him on pads before and he looked 10/10 much like when you see GGG , he looks amazing. No effort but shotgun sound effects

    I have to admit, when I saw Haye lose it at the press conferences I felt Bellew might have a big enough mental edge to effect the fight. but a bit of sanity has come back to me today.

    Haye seems more composed again. I have gone back to my original train of thought which is the fight is a complete joke, and the realisation that this hype is pretty meaningless next to a lethal punch. Haye doesn't look spent enough for Bellew to take advange, he is so many levels above that even if he is spent he could probably win.

    you never know, I don't rule out a shock completely but I just don't see it, to the point that I don't think I am going to bother ordering the fight. the simple fact is Haye is on a different level an it will show immediately I think.

    Its a strange one, almost an unbelievable matchup but they have you thinking, there must be a fight there otherwise it wouldn't be happening. but I don't really think there is a fight there. as soon as Haye catches him its over, he is a good finisher and wont let bellew off the hook.

    Liar, I'd say fair enough but people who claim he's a fraud are way out. He can clearly fight.

    I'm a doubter CutThroatFade but always respect your opinion mate.

    I genuinely like Haye as a fighter from a few years ago and how he comes across in interviews etc My point is, my doubts don't stem from a dislike.

    I'm just not convinced he's come back for the right reasons. Like Adam Booth questioned...is he now battle softened? I don't believe he loves fighting anymore. He always said he wanted to retire by the time he was 30. I think he's come back for the wrong reasons.

    He's had the shoulder reconstruction, he's been inactive for 5 years and he's 36.

    The doubts are legitimate but he can put them all to bed on Saturday.

    Bellew isn't going in there to get sparked for a quick payday which some people have suggested on here. He seriously, totally and utterly believes he can win against all the odds.

    Can't wait for Saturday. Looking forward to the banter on here afterwards.

    Bellew actually thinks he is tyson in his prime, he always talks garbage before fights but he is on another level this week.

    I reckon this is another Haye payday like we've seen vs guys like Audley and Enzo Mac and not much better than the two Dave TV stiffs.

    Would disagree with this. I think everyone he has fought at heavyweight would beat Bellew.

    Anyone can look good on the pads or on a bag.

    To me if this goes past 4 rounds then Bellew will and can win.

    Haye will be too bothered about his ring walk being good to make him look good and how his dressing room looks

    I know boxing is more about entertainment these days, but the root of it is still and can be the hardest sport of all and if your mind is not on the job fully Haye will come unstuck.

    Never play at boxing, which over the last 5 years that is all.Haye has done

    Think the 5 years out of the ring and ***** training will only matter if he's taking on top ten HW. His sub par level is enough to smash Bellew

    He's been in camp for this fight since before Xmas. You have been totally fooled. Guess you also think he's been shooting hoops all camp on his yacht.
