    The more I've been thinking about it the stranger the outcome of the haye Bellew fight was! Some 'odd' things happened:
    - haye criticised before fight for chucking it against cat and klit. Subsequently goes onto fight through complete adversity to 'redeem' himself!
    - Bellew criticised for have a poor chin . Subsequently takes some 'bombs' on the chin without flinching - 'redeeming' that part of his reputation.
    - Haye's injury happened at the perfect time in the fight to allow both boxers to walk away with plaudits and no negativity. The 'what would have happened' arguements will surely force a rematch.
    - haye not looking too upset after the fight. In reality I would expect him to be look shocked if this happened; and his ego would never allow him not to mention the injury if it wasn't Pre- meditated.
    - both boxers looking for big money cash out fights. Both boxers unlikely to get anywhere with the elite in the weight. Rematch at goodison is all too convenient for me! It could be suggested that it's worked out perfectly for both boxers!


    Other than that, I thought the refereeing during the fight was bizarre!
    - when haye's Achilles went pop he put Bellew down. Despite Tony holding his temple in pain the ref called it a slip.
    - in the 6th when haye went down there was no punch connected. Why did the ref call the knockdown?

    Seems to me like a blatent bit of bet fixing throughout allied with a pre-arranged outcome to allow all to come out with enhanced reputations moving into the goodison rematch.

    I smell a rat!

    Haye was also behind 9/11.

    I'd be surprised if that was true. They were a terrible band and haye seems to have good taste in music.

    I can't live if living is without you sweetheart. My favourite bit of you is your witty internet posts.

    Spot on. Glad someone else can see it. That 'fight' was just as scripted as the build up. This is now sports entertainment, not boxing.

    Won't be long before Hearn has people running in the ring and hitting people with steel chairs.

    So the Haye injury leak mid week was all part of the script?
