    We're nearly two months away from a "Christmas Come Early" Event that truly fascinates me, and I'm surprised this isn't being talked about on here.

    A few months back it didn't seem like this fight may ever happen, but to my surprise the fight was made and it'll be here before we know it.

    David Haye after sustaining what appeared to be a pretty serious mobility injury as a boxer seemed to have rehabed it in a matter of months and now appears to be leaner and fitter and just all around "tidy". (his words) Haye pretty much stated in no uncertain terms that if he can't beat Tony Bellew he has no business in boxing. So this really does appear to be a "make or break" fight for Haye.

    How many more fights does Haye really have in him? Does anyone believe that he could really become Heavyweight Champion again and challenge the likes of an AJ or a Wilder if he were to beat Bellew? Ever since the Wlad fight, with the exception of the Chisora win, his career has consisted of a lot of talking a lot of media appearances, a lot of inactivity and a lot of injury concerns.

    What's really going on with David Haye. And on the side of Bellew, how motivated is he to beat Haye once again. A lot of people seem to think this is more about Haye and whether or not he has strong legs under him than Bellew, but Bellew did put together a workmanlike performance in the first bout and he was never in any real trouble.

    I really am excited for this rematch simply because I have absolutely no idea what's gonna happen. We know Haye is a big puncher, and we know he's got skills, but have we really ever seen Haye with his back against the wall like he is here? This could legit be his last fight if he loses to Tony Bellew. If he wins, could we see a late 30s resurgance from Haye and a possible Haye - AJ or Haye Wilder down the road?

    What's gonna happen On December 17th ?!

    I would imagine Haye comes in alot lighter and boxes Bellow's ears off getting a wide decision or possibly a late tko...

    Haye fell in love with his power and forgot that other good boxers are not so easy to hit and unless he gets back to his Wlad era weight he is going to struggle injury wise...

    If Haye gets past Bellew which I fully expect, I guarantee Its Haye v Joshua. No bigger fight out there including Wilder !

    A fully fit , lighter haye should beat bellew . Maybe this will set up a 3rd ' decider ' fight. its obvious haye wants joshua but if he's serious about wanting to hold a title again he needs to go after wilder. Thats a fight he can potentially win.

    If Haye has anything left he stops Bellew mid to late rounds.

    The question is how much does Haye have left. Boxing is a physical sport and Hayes body broke down causing him to retire the first time, and broke down in the ring against Bellew.

    This is another 50-50 fight because Haye is physically shot to smithereens and Will only be able to beat Bellew, if he can avoid breaking down again

    The only way Haye can get me interested in watching him is if he gets a win against a solid HW contender. Bellew isn't that.
