    Haye always had the fight won, it’s his body that is the issue. Even bellew pretty much admits a fit haye beats him. I have my doubts haye will be physically fit, I think something will break in training or during the fight

    I'll tentatively pick hate by no around mid way. But if he's still carrying injury he loses again and has no choice but to retire on this then pension fund fight.

    Bellew has his number.

    People still believe this is the Haye of 2013 onwards. He is done as a fighter. Lost his hunger, timing, explosiveness and is now a tentative shell of what he once was.

    What's your excuse going to be when Bellew finishes him off the second time?

    Lol never thought of that. Haye is going to be a top 5 heavyweight by the end of the year by only beating Tony Bellew. This is hilarious

    So you would never give Bellew credit because you are a Haye fanboy.

    Haye either pulls out of the fight or injuries himself again in the ring. His body can't hold up to the rigours of the sport anymore.

    Not really a fan boy to be honest, it’s just how I saw it. I respect bellews effort but he was losing the fight in my view. A healthy haye would beat him, bellew pretty much admitted that. I respect what tony did but he not really in the same class. It’s an unbiased view, I’m not a massive fan of either.

    I think Haye pulls out of the fight a week or so before, citing another injury. Might be legit or might be a big eff you to Bellew without actually putting in the work to beat him, but I feel like this fight won't come off. Haye knows his body's a wreck and Bellew isn't nearly as bad as he thought or hoped.

    If he somehow makes it to fight night Bellew beats him again, either in a stinker where Haye fights just to survive, or via early KO in a shootout.

    Bellew is gunna retire this guy. I dislike Bellew but I've never seen a 37 year old with so much injuries come back to do anything significant. An Achilles injury is one of the worst injury you can get in sports.

    I will be honest, it is hard to know what Haye has left, but the few rounds he fought unhurt, Bellew still did well. I am going to pick Bellew again. Haye is going to have to land that right early and often in the early rounds to win this one, and I really don't know if he is still a sharp fighter.

    I HATE Haye so much. But like any sane person I picked him to win the first fight. Of ****ing course when I do that he pulls a Haye and loses it. But I'm still picking him to win the rematch as well. So he'll probably bottle it again lol
