    Given Haye's glass body, he must've fought, and won fights, when injured.

    So if you're winning injured, you can't use it as an excuse when losing.

    Thanks. I would feel insecure too if I read one of my posts without knowing who the author of it was.

    By the look of his shorts and the size of them, he looked like he was wearing some type of hip support.

    Haye is a walking injury. I'd imagine he was injured before the fight and matchroom and co knew about it and kept quiet.

    I think it was fairly well known Haye wasn't in great form though, seeing as the whole match up seemed to be based on how past it he was. Bellew depended on it and even said himself that if Haye was at his best he would be in trouble, he rightly accused him of coming back for the money. All that stuff he was goading Haye with on the first fight was spot on, which is probably why David was so combative in that buildup. No way they expected a better than ever Haye maker thats for sure.

    I give Bellew a bit of credit because there was the danger Haye had enough left to land with that old power, you never know in boxing so he did have balls taking the risk. Tony refused to be bullied in that first fight, and in the second fight he made it clear and showed Haye to be the washed up fighter he is, no questions this time.

    But when it comes down to it Tony did beat a fighter at the end, he knows that himself. What would really turn Bellew into something else is if he follows this up with a decent win against a live opponent, whether at heavyweight or not. couple of fights like that and he would join the other British legends.

    Haye's been injured more times than Samuel L. from Unbreakable.
