    I think Haye would win by knockout..........................would love to see a rematch, but Haye had better make up his mind ASAP!

    Bellew easy.

    1. Haye is far too slow these days not the Haye of old.
    2. Looks like Haye does not want the re-match, says it all.

    Jo Parker is training in Haye's gym for the hughie fight. Maybe having a young belt holder in his gym who trains for speed will help him out with motivation and get him back towards something like his prime.

    Edit. Actually just remembered his training camp is in Vegas and I am guessing it will just be a few days in Haye's gym. Never mind. I still pick haye to beat bellew

    P4P-Bellew toys with any version of Haye.

    If Haye really wants the fight why not let Bellew be the A-side? I guess he doesn't care about redeeming that embarrassing loss that badly or he's not confident enough to risk it.

    agree with all of this. Id give Bellew some credit for showing decent movement and having some sort of game plan. But Haye was clearly injured from the start and was still winning until his leg completely went. I would love to see a rematch.

    Bellew would win because Haye is way past his best, very slow and plodding now. Bellew easily evaded Haye's telegraphed hooks and saw everything from a mile away. A 28 year old Haye would have demolished that Bellew.

    Bellew didn't finish the job after the injury, and Haye was a sitting duck, but lets not pretend Haye was on top until the leg went.

    Bellew never looked worried by Hayes speed or power prior to the injury, he was slipping and turning Haye, and landing counters.

    Haye the heavyweight midget had speed and could bang, the bigger version looks like his boots are made of tortoise skin, and telegraphs every punch. A legit heavyweight with any credentials would decapitate him.

    Haye is shot. His body will fall apart again within minutes.

    Am I missing something here?

    The only reason that Bellew won the first fight was the injury. Yes Haye is physically deteriorated but he is also still a lot better than Bellew. He could have cruised to a wide UD win without even going for the KO and getting injured....that was advisable

    Just to clear something up....
    The injury happened during the fight, otherwise he would have worn strapping.

    Reports were coming out a week before the fight that Haye had injured his Achilles. This injury was widely reported and denied.

    However, it's one hell of a coincidence that it just so happened to be his Achilles that went, in the fight.

    Anyhow, an injury free Haye would win, of that I'm sure.

    Bellew took Hayes shots, the ones he didn't slip with ease, last fight and should go into a rematch without the fear he had the first time around. He should also have bulked up a bit, adding more power and tolerance. Haye has only gotten older, Bellew on points.
