Paying for a manufactured grudge fight where Haye carrying an injury and should not have fought gets beat because he had no healthy leg to stand on whilst the opponent was too tired/fat to stop him.
I thought it was good
the injury actually made the fight better, Bellew wasn't in it before that, apart from the first where haye was far too eager
2, 3, 4 and half of five it was all Haye, only one winner, then the injury and it still looked like he could land a decisive punch, but at the same time he looked like he would go at any time
round 7 or 8 or maybe 9, Haye actually made a strong case for winning the round, which made it look even more like the impossible was possible
even at the end it looked like Haye could have got up and carried on doing what he was doing for another round and a half, and still had that chance
When the corner called it off, the tense excitement was over and in some ways it was quite frustrating, although clearly the right decision
