David Haye

I was very disappointed by his performance against Wlad ,but I think he redeemed himself against Bellew.

 

Haye is one of my favourite fighter of this generation at the higher weight classes. Sadly it's over for him with his bad injuries. The last 2 defeats tarnished his legacy a bit, but he is still one of the greatest British boxers.

 

It’s a pretty bad end but there been worse. Just seems raw now. In a year people won’t care and it will be seen as him on the slide. Do people judge Tyson on the embarrassing Mcbride fight? Not even in the equation when looking at what he did in the 80s. Will be the same with haye. Only the very few get out without these embarrassing ends. It’s boxing. I just hope haye leaves it there. Roy Jones route is a terrible way to go out

 

WTF?

Getting pumped by a bum twice and nothing to be ashamed about!!!

 

Haye played his fanboys like a fiddle.

I warned them before the fight that he was telling them salesmen lies yet they believed he was going to be haye 3.0.

Bellew had his number from day 1.

Now they are all consoling themselves telling each other that Haye didn't train and was hiding another injury.

No he is washed up and got bear by the better man.

 

His chin is **** now but his injury was/is the main reason he lost. He clearly isn't doing cardio, can't pivot, I noticed he was slapping his jab last night as well. He is damn near disabled, and if he carries on fighting will be lucky to walk without a limp for the rest of his life.

 

Yes seen that clearly in the Adonis Stevenson fight!!

 

Yes. His achilles is ruptured, do you know what that means for a normal person let alone an explosive athlete?

It means that he has no control over being to move his right foot up and down and thus has effectively has almost no control of his right leg below the knee.

Because even though he can still flex and extend his lower leg via his quads and hams, the fact that his gastro-soleus complex can't plantar/dorsi flex when weightbearing means he has to make a conscious effort to pick his right leg up and place it back down again.

Yes, I do this as a profession btw.

Just think about that for a second. Let it sink in, then hark back to the way his leg was trailing like a wet noodle in the first fight.

People are forgetting he literally sprawled collapsed over the ring at one point as his right leg completely gave out.

If you want to convince yourself that Bellew beat a fit and able Haye crack on.

The only point I will concede on is his chin, I'm not sure what happened there.

 

Warriors fall on their sword and don't offer their arris to opponent.

The reactions from the Sky commentary team and Bellew last night had me thinking that he had just beat the best Ali or Mayweather, not a crocked old has been simply going through the motions for piles of PPV money.

Will only change my opinion of Bummer Bellew if he gets in with the winner of Usyk v Gassiev or Wilder who is exactly the same weight as Bellew.

 

I picked Haye by KO because I was about 60% sure he was in better shape than the first fight. I was wrong. I was under the impression that if he was badly injured, which he was, going into this fight, then he would have been mouthing off much more in order to drum up more PPV's knowing that it would be his last fight...that coupled with the matter of Salas prioritising him.

As it stands, I believe Haye is planning on still fighting, as to admit to yet another bad injury would prob raise eyebrows with the medical boards.

Haye looks to be on his ass financially and resorting to desperate means to preserve his seemingly only way to generate large amounts of cash.
