Yeah Haye really looked flat yesterday.
Anyone just catch the final presser?
Hayes team hired out the guy from the inbetweeners to gatecrash the show after Bellew said Hayes manager looked like the guy from the show the other day;D
Heads came together and Bellew bit first and shoved Haye across the stage which ended proceedings - handbags at most
Check this out at 59 minutes ;D;D

That’s a fucking classic, Jay from the Inbetweeners turning up! ;D;D (it’ll probably be lost on our American cousins).
I don’t give a monkeys about the fight , but I just hope this is like Froch/Groves 2 where Froch didn’t allow the mind games to get to him. Doubt it though, I think Haye is at the point of no return.

;D;D;D it's all over Social Media already, funny as fuck.
Bellew called Hayes manager "Will" from the inbetweeners the other day and it turns out Hayes manager Adam Morrallee is good mates with the actor who plays Jay from the show so obviously invited him down to the presser today for a giggle ;D

Re: Bellew v Haye 2 - 5/5/18 - O2 London
I wouldn't be surprised now if Haye is fooling us all and comes in top shape and blows him away.
Surprising given I been saying his body will break down again for month
oh I don't know ffs

Re: Bellew v Haye 2 - 5/5/18 - O2 London
I hate it when the yanks go on about the brits and our 'domestic fights' but they are right, my old man is bang up for this, he can't wait for it, Canelo v GGG, nah he wasn't interested Haye v Bellew, he's on it like a tramp on chips.
My old man ain't stupid when it comes to boxing either...or he never used to be, he used to know everyone and who they had fought, these days he gets excited by what sky tells him to get excited by.
I don't think it's a bad thing, it's actually really good that boxing can drum up interest on a domestic level.

He knows how Bellew will play it, he'll be playing the waiting game giving Haye every opportunity to do the work for him and fall apart. Haye is either going to have to be equally as patient, or he's going to have to dig a proper laser guided right hand out of the vault.
If Haye's body holds up and he wins this fight with ease then I suggest we all go vegan immediately.
This is exactly why i'm thinking this could well be a very cagey fight or at least cagey first half of the fight, the only way i see Haye winning is to sit back and counter like he did against Enzo Maccarinelli.
Problem is that's Bellews game so i can see them both just circling each other for ages until things heat up.
I also don't think Haye can throw that right hand Hayemaker effectively in a straight line anymore due to his shoulder injury which is why he was missing Bellew by miles with those huge looping/lunging right hooks.
Somewhere down the line this will catch fire as Haye could well be in desperation mode and need a KO later on to save his career.
One thing this fight should guarantee is drama at some stage but i think we'll see a cagey opening unlike last time where it was a shoot out from the off.
Agree with this. Haye can't throw straight and it will be a cagey fight early on
i reckon Haye will win and I've always thought since the 1st fight that without the injury he's good enough to beat Bellew. I stick by that but I got a feeling that it's gonna be another long fight damaging to his reputation and ego. He will probably win the decision in a close fight but I expect he may still choose to retire after a less than convincing performance

I watched one of those side by side training videos, the guy never knows what he is talking about but I like to watch how different people train. I was shocked at Haye on the heavy bag. He looked like a first timer with crazy wide punches that had no leverage(like the first fight)

Yeah Haye looks more in training and he's looked poor in his last few fights. In fact if you look through his entire career, his best wins are a highlight reel of messy finishes with cuffing scrappy punches.
tony Bellew looked better at the final workout. His technique was far superior. He was punching correctly and was well balanced.

Haye looked much cooler at the weigh in. Bellend looks frustrated that his bullsh it isn’t working and David ain’t biting
anyone know what they were sayin at the stare down at the end ?

Matthew Macklin comment on BBC:
think he will be better mentally this time but I just think he's shot. He's injured and his timing is way out. The only way you get that back is with a lot of sparring and I highly doubt he has done a lot of sparring. Even at the media workout he looks like his legs have gone."

Paulie Malignaggi said last night that he was with Haye last time out in Miami and he hardly trained at all for the first fight.

Re: Bellew v Haye 2 - 5/5/18 - O2 London
I think unless HST e is truely broken down that he's going to have a fairly easy time with tbellew... I also think he looked bad before his leg gave up but I was also very surprised bellew couldn't take advantage of Hayes weird and wild punching until haye could barely move... I'm going with haye by KO...
Maybe I will posting in the fights you got wrong thread on Saturday :S
-
Re: Bellew v Haye 2 - 5/5/18 - O2 London
I've gone Bellew on points, it's the lesser of two evils, I despise them both but if Haye wins he will be screaming for AJ and will probably get him, Bellew will just drop down and fight for the cruiserweight world title as he's champion emeritus.
Bellew wins he will still drop back to cruiser but Haye will have no option to retire, at least we won't have to hear from one of them again that way...although it probably means Haye will be on Sky every fucking week

Re: Bellew v Haye 2 - 5/5/18 - O2 London
Haye by KO for me. I just think he will be more measured and will clock Bellew who is tubby looking and no HW. He isn't James Toney.

Re: Bellew v Haye 2 - 5/5/18 - O2 London
James Toney is not James Toney at heavyweight.

Re: Bellew v Haye 2 - 5/5/18 - O2 London
Looked like him in those first few years there. Only then did Jabba fully emerge.

Jabba was eaten by Toney.

If Haye, forgets about head hunting and keeps jabbing to the torso. Its a good start.

James Tennyson v Martin Ward on now.

Ward is dominating this fight, he looks quality.

Just as I say that Tennyson batters the hell out of Ward in round 4.
