The elephant in the room- Haye fought one legged again but was contracted to proceed

Haye was lacing his shoes up and a fly went onto his eye then twisted ankle it was a freak accident!!

 

Did Haye retire like he said he would??

 

This.
I always need to remind people how he went on a YT "copyright" takedown spree for every fight he got dropped or wobbled in, in the buildup to the Klitschko fight, even if he wasn't the guy holding the rights in a lot of cases.

 

Bellew isn't going anywhere, he's sniffed HW money.

Haye, as someone eruditely put it, there's a fraud been committed here. His achilles is FUBAR'ed and he has been passed fit to fight, twice.

His first knockdown, have a re-watch at what gives way immediately, his right leg, it collapses underneath him.

David is obviously in desperate financial trouble, or was. Shame to see it.

 

far more money for bellew getting ko'd at hw, than at cw or lhw.

 

All Haye had to do was run his jab and stay out of range. Like he did vs Valuev. First two and half rounds it was working fine then he started loading up on Bellew - countered and that was that. Haye just couldn't stick to a plan and /or his leg was such he couldn't go 12 or fight outside with feints and movement.

 

When you fight a smaller man, you usually give away a bit of speed. That is why things unfolded as they did

 

Haye's power wasn't there post surgery. The injuries and age left him a shadow of what he once was. This is similar to when Green beat RJJ IMO.

 

Haye must be shot to **** or injured. If you’ve followed his career you’d know someone the size and style of Bellew would have a very tough time beating him.

 

people dont see that bellew was as fast as haye, haye isnt as fast as people like to make out, only when he fights old men does he look fast. uysk for example alot quicker at cw

 

Like has been mentioned Haye was doing ok throwing the jab and the 1-2, as soon as he tried to get the punches going to start trading he was in trouble. He who lands first lands best, Bellew was too fast and sharp for him. Haye has always been fast with the 1-2 but he's not a fast combination puncher.

 

Right. Haye never had a good chin. That;s why he always ran from punchers. Bellew hurt him when he landed.

 

Yeah the fact his leg collapsed like that again suggested it was never 100% percent healed.

 

Haha, look at the HayeTurds.
Gaye lost this fight because:
1. He was never all that to begin with.
2. Tony Bellew is a smarter fighter than Haye ever was. From the first round of the first fight he was timing Haye.
3. Haye is old, and doesn't have the speed and reflexes he once had.

Any version of Haye would at best struggle with this version of Bellew.

 

Paulie is usually honest......................however, it's time Haye retire for good now................
