Bellew fight

Say what you want about Haye but he's still a big name. Getting 15'000+ at the O2 despite little in terms of promotion outside of his own social media is some going. Haye vs Bellew would be huge, next summer at Goodison? Sell out no doubt.

will Haye agree to give Bellew home advantage at goodsion?

Haye is just desperate for some publicity and is enjoying the ride on Tony's shirt tail,even if a fight was possible he would agree too any venue cos Tony would be calling the shots.

Just can't see Haye coming back to a level where he is seen as a genuine contender he has had his 5 minutes in the sunshine.

haye will defo be back on the big stage there is to much to be earned using his name .


The fight would be at a catch weight as Haye will struggle to make cruiserweight now . He would lose a lot of muscle and it would favour Bellew . If it's a catch weight Haye wins inside 6 .

Not denying at all that his name would put bums on seats but wouldn't he have to get back to a certain standard to be allowed to contend for a world title?

I don't pretend to be an expert on boxing just since announcing a comeback I would have thought it would take 2 or 3 fights against decent opposition before he could jump the queue.

he can move through the ranking quick enough . And boxing is corrupt enough to change things to suit the money fights
 

Was at the fight last night great win for Tony happy for him,i hope he doesn't go on to much about fighting David haye he would be better off trying to clear up the other belts in his division and steer clear of haye.

That division is full of dangerous fights were he won't get paid even a 5th of what he could make fighting Haye . He's lived the dream. Now it's about making as much dough as possible I reckon

Maybe mate but none of them are in David Hayes class.

If the money is right then yes.

Haye lives the high life, he's not back for titles he's back to earn as much money as possible. Rumours surfaced a while back his fortune was dwindling so this comeback is not as out of the blue as others thought. Haye messed Fury around twice so that cash cow has sailed, Joshua possibly the only realistic fight that would make him more money than Bellew.

He could go down the Wilder route but he'd be a mandatory, his purse would be buttons. With Bellew it would be a voluntary and if both are sensible they can make a shed of money on PPV.
 
High enough risk for a much lower reward though
Would not like to watch him get beat up at Goodison and detract what he achieved there.i think there is enough money in the other fights for him,but if the offer is too big well money talks just hope not.

But if he loses for instance to his mandatory ( for by all accounts is a real danger) were does he go then ? Does he have the motivation to build himself up again . Performances like last night only come around once or twice In most fighters careers .

It all depends but I know for a fact Eddie Hearn will want the biggest pay day possible

The other way to look at it is say he doesn't lose his 1st.or his 2nd,i just think haye is a step to far,but that's just my opinion mate you could be right time will tell.
