David haye is 8/1 1st rd ko 7/1 2nd and 3rd round ko Im thinking 50 quid on 1st rnd and 100 quid on 2nd and 3rd. Really cant see this fight going past 3 rounds,seems like easy money
It's not easy as that. Bellew dropped Hayes bumchum about 5times before it was stopped. Haye said how tough he was in sparring. Bellew hits hard. I expected makabu to damage Bellew. Bellew got off his ass and battered that man. Haye got up against barret who was 40 and way past it. Haye got outmanned by Carl Thompson. Haye is only considered slick when he runs for 12 rounds
I dont think makabu was all that. Carl thompson got battered to death till haye emptied his tank,and it was over 10 years ago. Someone being tough in sparring with head gear on is different to a real fight. I cant get past bellew is 1 and 1 with cleverley,was knocked senseless by stevenson,he's not the best cw in the world no matter what he claims.hes wide open,if he goes gung ho for the ko like he did with mukabu or flores hes not going to walk thru wots coming back at him. Albeit haye is markably slower than what he was which is the only thing stopping me from betting bigger
Tend to agree with 'lepinthehood' here. Haye sparks him sometime after 3 when Bellew gasses from a combination of the extra weight and Haye's assaults. Haye KO5 Would add that 1-4 more likely than Bellew seeing round 8
Haye is in good condition for this fight. He wasn't for his 2 warm up bouts. He is faster, stronger and the better boxer. Bellew is also upright and chinny. Haye via KO in the first 4 rounds seems a no brainer
Haye might actually come out blazing. Aside from being wound up by his banter, I think he needs to set the pace immediately and not allow Bellew any time to find a rhythm. If Bellew is still there and relatively intact after the first four rounds his confidence will grow exponentially. Haye then becomes vulnerable. Basically Haye has to get him out of there early.
Funny cause I keep thinking round one but at least Bellew isn't like those last two opponents that Haye fought,the second one never threw a punch
You know its a bad state of affairs when your big step up in class at HW is Tony Fking Bellew. I know he's got a title etc but considering the stick Wilder gets for his opposition, Haye gets an easy ride.
Well Haye was face to face will Bellew at a press conference, was only two feet away, threw a punch and missed. If that was a genuine attempt at a punch (I'm very cynical about that and this fight) then Haye might be in trouble
Not defending hayes **** poor opposition but the massive difference is that haye isnt defending a title and hes coming of a 3/4 year lay off.why would anyone be in the slightest bit peeved at wilder getting stick for the shite hes fighting
Those are some great odds and it's clear Haye will be going for the early KO from round 2 onwards. I would focus on round 2, 3 and 4 as KO for Haye and put a small amount on a 1st round KO.
