Is Haye fooling us all that he’s not confident.
Or as he already fooled us all into one last pay day and doesn’t give a shit....

Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
No win situation for Haye in this type of interview - he made an arse of himself saying what he was going to do in the first fight and then lost. I don't think it's lack of confidence I think it's more him biting his tongue trying not to respond in the usual over the top way he would.
Bellew is without doubt in the P4P rankings for being able to wind people up

Tony Bellew: David Haye will not last eight rounds in our rematch
Tony Bellew says he will stop David Haye inside eight rounds in their rematch and insists his rival "should have stayed clear" of him.
The pair meet at heavyweight in London on 5 May, 14 months after Bellew stopped an injured Haye in round 11.
Bellew, 35, insists he would have beaten Haye even when the Briton dominated the cruiserweight division, holding three world titles in 2008.
"I'll beat David Haye no matter what day of the year it is," he said.
"I'm faster than anyone he's ever faced, I'm someone who can dictate, I'm someone who can make him miss, I'm someone who's got enough pop in his punch to make him think twice about engaging.
"I'm not saying I'm better than any fighter he's faced because he's faced much better fighters than me - Wladimir Klitschko is far better than me - but he can't do the things that I can do."
Many observers expected Haye to retire in the aftermath of his shock defeat to Bellew, who was fighting at heavyweight for the first time as a professional.
The 37-year-old, who has also held a world heavyweight title, underwent surgery on the Achilles injury he suffered midway through the bout and later had to postpone a rematch in order to have an operation on a bicep injury.
Haye has stated defeat would likely end his career but believes he is in better shape than 14 months ago having now linked up with renowned Cuban trainer Ismael Salas.
The rivals have not yet engaged in the kind of heated exchanges which led up to their first bout but Liverpudlian Bellew - himself a former world champion at cruiserweight - said: "I've got a good boxing brain and I can adapt and adjust to any situation.
"If I use my brain and I make the right adjustments at the right times I'll have rid of David Haye before the eighth round.
"Quite simply it's styles make fights. My style is just wrong for David Haye and he should have stayed well clear of me."

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Actually looking forward to this rematch, the first fight was pure drama and Haye was winning up until the injury on all the cards.
That was the worst version of Haye i have ever seen, swinging/missing by miles and using zero boxing skills.
The fact that Bellew struggled to put a one legged man to sleep only added to the drama.
Surely Haye will go back to basics and actually box this time.
It's an intriguing albeit meaningless rematch for me, but Haye as always will probably be knocking on the door of a title shot or at least a final eliminator should he win this.
agreed Smash - although I don't see either as relevant going forward and no time for either I'm quite looking forward to how it unfolds.
if Haye hasn't got him by 5th though i think he he'll fold and maybe quit .
roll on 5th May

I am convinced Haye came in injured before the fight and thought he could knock out Bellew early and go home.
Bellew showed courage to stand toe to toe against Haye and think he has enough experience to not get caught by the right hand.
Once Haye realises that he can not stop Bellew he will win the rounds and take the decision.
Notice Haye, Bellew and Sky have contrived together and not mention the injury.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Maybe he was carrying something into the fight whence the timing, but it definitely snapped proper during the fight. The early rounds were very different to the later rounds. It was a good fight and I am curious about this one.
What did Haye's injury in the first fight and up being?
Admittedly I don't like Hate and never paid close attention
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Yes, it was fairly dramatic ..... but nonetheless a poor quality contest between a Has Been and a Never Was
