David Haye picks Deontay Wilder (why has he become so negative towards Fury)? Lennox picks Fury

    His predictions on fights 1 and 2 were what most were predicting on the Wilder vs Fury match up. Incidentally I am one of the few who picked Fury to win fights 1 and 2. In the first fight I predicted Fury would outbox and in the 2nd fight Fury would stop him, maul him etc. My head and everything I know about boxing tells me Fury should win again but I have not been able to shake off a gut feeling about an upset Wilder victory tonight. I hope my gut feeling is wrong because I don’t like Wilder. My view is Haye is entitled to his opinion. He is a 2 division world champion , a unified Cruiserweight world champion and former heavyweight champion of the world. He knows how Wilder can win the fight does not mean he will, it’s just his opinion. I like Big John Fury but he can be an idiot at times. I will say it again punditry is not about patriotism.

    Again, Haye is more than entitled to his opinion, I just think theres somewhat of an agenda behind it.

    There always is an agenda you name them Lennox Lewis, Frank Warren, Bob Arum etc against AJ and Dillian Whyte ditto Eddie Hearn against Fury and Wilder. Goes with the terrain. That’s boxing.

    I don't think there is anything hate about it. More love for his people. From what I've noticed, Haye always seems to pick along community lines. It is what it is. I remember one fight where everyone picked the other guy, Haye had spent the whole show explaining how he didn't think his guy could win. Then with a lot of contrition he picked his guy.

    "It's going to look like Holmes-Cooney" - Haye in the press conference to his proposed fight with Fury, which Haye pulled out of twice

    Wilder is essentially a bigger, blacker version of David Haye so he'll always pick him over Fury, just as he picked the "superior athlete" AJ to KO Usyk with a jab lmfao

    Another of Tyson's bitter sons.



    'I'll never doubt Fury again!'

    Picks against Fury in his very next fight, a rematch with the guy he just demolished. :stick:
