This haye and bellew situation is rather interesting i must say!

Only thing i dislike about haye is what fury pointed out... he retired due to never being able to use his shoulder again... then comes back and fights two clowns and claims his shoulder is better than ever and robbing the public by going into ridiculous match ups that are VERY unfair and could potentially be very dangerous too.

NO ONE on this planet can really judge him after his fights since retirement.... they really have been pathetic match ups.

Not saying i think he would, but it would most certainly be entertaining for the sport if bellew did knock out haye... its been 4 years since haye fought anyone decent... after all he's not in his prime anymore and anyone can win on the day... just take a look at the whole fury klitschko situation for evidence.

Must say it did add some drama to the end of the fight, it was like watching the wrestling.

Haye vs Briggs possible for WBA as Browne failed another drug test

WBAinDEVON · « **Reply #456 on:** November 25, 2016, 03:45:16 PM »

So we have Haye verses Bellew then, should be alot of spitting and bitching

Nothing but a mismatch and a cashout. Haye is faster, stronger, bigger, has better footwork and a better defence and is an actual heavyweight. Doubt it will last 5 rounds. Sure the Sky casuals will lap it up when Bellew acts up in the build up. All a complete act to flog PPV, the pair were/are actually pretty friendly with each other. Eddie Hearn turning boxing into WWE since 2012.

Yeah don't expect him to go any further. Nice tidy boxer and has skills and excellent work rate but never looks like knocking out an opponent.

To think he was scheduled to fight Eubank Jr tonight wasn't he? With respect he is no where near that level.

No mean achievement though a British title. Well done to him.

how billy jo saunders got the win last night is beyond me,a very poor showing by him i thought

barnestormer · « **Reply #464 on:** December 09, 2016, 02:02:52 PM »

Any predictions for tomorrow nights card? Whyte to ko Derek and Molina to stop Joshua for me.not overly impressed with Joshua's long distance chances with all that muscle so if Molina can keep him at arms length first half the fight I can see an upset on the cards

Joshua in 6. Whyte on points. Kal Yafai to win the world title.

Has lost 3 times!. All by KO. Got stopped by Chris Arreola in a round. Eddie aint stupid!

But he had wilder in trouble early doors and Eddie may not be stupid but maybe a tad complacent, remember lewis McCall? Nothing is a cert in boxing

Chisora v Whyte is the only competitive fight.

Molina is rubbish. Knocked out in a round by Arreola who is no good at world level.

That british title fight that just finished was great.

boing_boing68 · « **Reply #473 on:** December 10, 2016, 08:02:09 PM »

its about time Joshua fought someone decent

Jimmy · « **Reply #474 on:** December 10, 2016, 08:12:54 PM »

Molina is no bum, even though he wore that daft hat at the weigh in.
