    However, all the focus is on what went wrong with Haye and Bellew being better than everyone expected is totally ignored. Like Alpha said - you can't even bring yourself to give a slither of credit to a boxer that proved you wrong.

    Just give credit where it's due gawdammit!
    Credit for taking the risk, getting in the ring and surviving for about 6 rounds before Haye got injured yes.

    Acknowledge the fact that Bellew got very lucky.

    I wouldn't say Bellew got lucky, Haye was unlucky. It's impossible to ascertain what would've happened had Haye not got injured.

    However, if you actually took the care to read my posts you would've realised i've already acknowledged Haye was awful before he got injured.

    Haye did look terrible. That may have been down to carrying the injury, maybe not. That's not Bellew's fault. Haye chose to go through with the fight. Once you step in that ring all the excuses go out the window. Bellew might have sent Haye into permanent retirement. I think Bellew should look for the biggest payday's from this point on.

    Bellew's biggest chance of a payday and win will be against Haye.

    The rubbish that Bellew comes out with about Whyte not being worthy when he would beat him or how he could beat Parker is infuriating. Bellew should be thankful Haye was disabled in that fight.

    I don't care too much for Bellew but he has been on a nice little run of late. I kind of think of him along the lines of Joe Smith Jr; he does nothing especially great but he just keeps bucking the odds.
