Bellew-Haye

It's been a pantomime all week - more WWE than boxing - take this build up v's Joshua v's Klitschko and the respect they give each other. I get the hype for Bellew and Haye - on one level it's intriguing and has caught the imagination - the lighter Cruiser Champ v's the former Heavy Champ. Weight, power makes it so one sided for Haye but then you've got Tony calling out the lack recent fight experience.

I want Bellew to win, but he'll have to survive an onslaught early doors. One thing is for sure it won't go the distance but the build up hasn't done either of them many favours. For me, the only reason we are having a non title fight like this is pure cash. Nothing much at Cruiser for Tony, certainly no PPV and Haye can see a future big dollar fight against a bigger name. Who can blame them? It's been hyped to hell but if it goes past 6 I'll be amazed. For me, the longer the fight is it falls to the Bomber. Let's see.
 

Really hoping tony wins today, played 7-a-side against him and he's a good lad, has that swagger that all pro's have yet laughed it off when one of our lads put him on his backside.
Haye is an absolute tart and his recent behaviour has been disgusting, saying he wants to put bellew in hospital and mocking the local fight fans, love to see him on his back seeing stars
 
I listened to a bit of a pre-fight interview on the radio this morning, I thought it was childish and there is no place for it in sport. Someone on here mentioned pantomime, I think that sums it up, it has very little to do with sport and a lot to do with the generation of money.
Boxing does itself no favours at times.
 
After seeing the weigh-in, the heavier Haye will play into Bellew's hands.

I think Tony will come out round 1 swinging to confuse Haye's game plan.

If he holds up, he will soak up as much as he can before taking Haye into deep water.

Haye has power but there is doubt. If it's the injury or the time out the ring or the excuses. Haye isn't the same boxer.
