    Bellew has never lost at O2. It's a good venue for him. If he loses he can ask for a third fight in Liverpool I'm sure.

    Haye if he is smart and talks about how Bellew failed to put him away properly after the injury. Hope to see some fireworks, apples and pears.

    Watching the video now and have to say that Haye won the fashion battle by decisive KO. That outfit is clean as hell.

    Anyone for 'boxing' bingo?

    Obviously you take what they say in press conferences with a pinch of salt, but if Haye really intends to come in at the same weight then he will really struggle again.

    He looks pretty light already to me...

    I don’t know if anyone else agrees, but Haye on the scales vs Haye in the ring last time looked like he’d restricted the water intake to make himself look ripped on the scales...looked bigger and more bloated in the ring on the night to me...

    Haye looks sharp and focused.

    I think he puts Bellew to sleep rounds 7-10

    I expect Haye to come in much lighter than he did in the first fight he already looks slimmed down to me which is a good sign. Bellew struggled to finish a one legged and badly damaged Haye last time out, it showed that Bellew doesn't carry much power at heavyweight. Haye was missing a lot in the opening rounds because I believe the injury was in the back of his mind he knew he had to blast Bellew out of there before he broke down so he was doing a lot of lunging and not setting up his power shots. I don't think the power was there either because he wasn't putting a lot of pressure on his leg. This time he wont have to worry about that if he's injury free and fully fit like he says. Haye by knockout in the 5th round is my prediction. Looking forward to this!

    Are we assuming that Haye is 100% recovered from the achilles injury? Athletes never quite come back the same after that kind of injury imo.
