Haye was clearly injured going into the fight. And was still winning 4-1 up until the injury. Credit to Bellew for his side of the performance, but come on..
Tom Clark spot on mate 🖒
Haye's best shots did nothing to Bellew. The longer the fight goes the better it was for Bellew.
Tom Clark You don't know how to rate fights, funnily enough neither do some judges, no chance Haye took away more that 2 rounds.
Tom Clark so if a F1 car breaks in a race near the end and another driver takes the podium does that mean that, that race isn't valid? Lol fact, Hayes body has always been an issue in boxing, lots of injury's and surgeries plus pulling out of big fights, if haye's tune is always breaking then HE clearly isn't a good fighter. He got injured in a fight. Yes a FIGHT lol
+Lee Mcqueen And Bellew's shots up until the injury did nothing to Haye either. Haye was getting settled and winning rounds. Even after the injury, he couldnt knock out a static target.
If it wasnt for haye Achilles bellew would not have won, Haye needs that rematch asap
Jaguar The Eddie and bellew will lose any respect they've gained if they don't give him the rematch, it has to happen! Just hope haye trains properly and is injury free
Got his rematch 😂
What was Hayes excuse for the first 5 rounds? Instead of playing on his boat 🚣 in Miami he should of taken the fight seriously and done the business in the first round like he should have
He was injured going into the fight
He was up 4-1 after 5
he was up on the score cards before the injury
he even beat Bellew for 2 rounds after the injury when he couldn't stand up properly lol
Peggy Mitchell he was up on the score cards before the injury
I wanted Bellew to win, but not like that. Let's have it right, he beat a man with one leg who must've been in agony. Haye deserves an immediate rematch if he can get back in the ring within reasonable time.
check out his recent instagram post.
El Guapo finally someone gets it. Credit to Bellew,he could only fight what was in front of him. but come on Haye was winning the fight and he was going to win.
Primealivstyson 'must of been in agony' it's a fight 😂😂 you mad every fighter gets injured and in agony they're getting punched in the head
spike c when I ruptured my achilles I couldn't walk for 2 months. Your foot just flops about. It's different to a hand or a jaw. You can't walk or throw any weight behind anything. That's a horrific injury trust me. As bad as you can get.
spike c Being punched in the head doesn't hurt that much, it's a dull pain compared to damaged achilles, you're genuinely in agony with it.
Oh look it's kugan "can't take nothing away from Bellew" Cassius & Eddie "no class" Hearn.
Haye had 5 rounds to give the world his 1 round demolition job he promised us....just face facts haye is garbage.....grossly overrated......
carl green Well it became quickly apparent that Haye wasn't gonna KO him. Bellew took few flushed on the chin nothing happened BUT Haye would've 100% out boxed him.
The A Side Loooool
So your not gonna man up and admit that he is garbage????, he basicly said in the lead up he wad gonna seriously hurt bellew.....and the prick himself ends up in hospital.....hes shite mate.....
carl green The only reason Haye lost was because he underestimated bellew, that is a FACT
I've nothing against Bellew - Haye's injury wasn't his fault - but you can't make an objective, honest assessment of the fight without mentioning the fact that he beat a one-legged fighter. Charles Martin was ridiculed for his world title win over Glazcov for similar circumstances, yet Bellew is lauded? Do me a favour. Good luck to Bellew - he won fair and square - but let's have some perspective here.
This is exactly correct. I think fair play to Bellew. He had the balls to step in the ring and took some shots.
But he shouldn't be acting like he is. He won because Haye's ankle gave up and he was incapacitated. There should be more grace from Bellew and no one would be giving him all this.
JoeStunner Bellew is lauded?really?all I have heard after Bellews win is Heye had one leg,Heye was terrible,Heye this Heye that,Bellew hasn't got the credit he deserves for this win,bellew trained fucking hard for that fight,he had a plan,I don't think Heye trained that hard for this fight at all,Heye thought he would steam roll Bellew and stop him inside 3 rounds, Bellew and his camp knew if this fight went longer than 6,Bellew would win it, Injuries are part of sport,thats a fact,personally I don't think Heye would have won the fight without the injury,Heye hit bellew with everything he had before the injury,Heye was getting tired and in my opinion Bellew wins on points or stops Heye anyway.
Well done Tony,I made a few quid,(not my giro either as I actually have a career believe it or not and I am a scouser!)
and a message to Heye,let's hope all the scousers put there giros on the bellew win when.
Because all scouser are on the dole aren't they!? (Not)
JoeStunner i agree with most of that mate but Bellew was one stone lighter and a 4 inch reach disadvantage to Haye before hand. Haye could still have knocked him our at anytime with that power but he lost his grip before the injury. His Boxing was scatty from the off and he played wide open which showed he wanted that one punch win from the off.
Fair points.
You make a good point, although its not comparable to martin vs glazcov! David was former heavy weight and cruiser weight world champion and tony is current wbc cruiser weight champion, both world level fighters. The fight was competitive from the first bell, and what a fight it was, and against all of the odds! agreed haye was injured, but the fight was close until then. would love to see the rematch
Here come all the Haye rim lickers. End of the day Haye's best shot couldn't put Bellew away.
Adam Jones haye was injured coming in to the fight and then ruptured it completely. I do agree he's shot.
And a whole variety of Bellews shots couldn't put away and old, one legged, hasbeen Haye. Bellew should consider his future in heavyweight really. He'll never be able to KO any heavyweight who isn't injured, and this fight was pretty solid evidence.
Toast E I think you have forgot Bellew is a cruiserweight, not to mention Haye has a solid chin. Your point is irrelevant.
Callum _7 David Haye's chin doesn't support his weight though does it, he doesn't rely on his chin for balance does he? Your retort is irrelevant lol
GibsSon Haye couldn't knock out a Cruiserweight inside 5 rounds? What's your point?
No Edward it was a boxing match!!! not fking mma..........Tony showed great Heart and chin,Haye was fking Lion!!
Tony was blowing out his arse and couldn't put Haye away!!...If it was the other way around wat happens to Tony.. Edward??
No injury and Tony was going out on his shield in the late rounds!! .......Both warriors and both deserve respect but this fight has to happen again!!!
mac ss But Bellew wouldn't have been so tired... If Haye didn't get the injury he would have gassed first as he was starting to... As soon as Haye got injured, Bellew got excited and expended a lot of energy trying to get him out... Haye was class on the ropes slipping and countering and then Bellew calmed down, regained energy and got him out... Before that Bellew was fightingon the counter and he was quicker... So you can't compare how gassed Bellew was after the injury because the fight changed completely...
Every1 see's it different.....respect that,but I think Haye was going stop him late!!
Hope they do it again and throw Delboy v whyte 2 on the card!!!
mac ss I don't agree... But I hear you... It's all subjective...
Haye got knocked out of the ring and the towel was thrown in!! Haye was stopped you dumb fuck LOL
mac ss learn how to construct a sentence and paragraph before commenting again.
Haye was actually injured going into the fight. That's why he was fighting so reckless in round 1. He knew he had to finish it early before the Injury kicked in.
Primealivstyson agree mate, the IFL video of Hayes ring walk shows his ankle wasn't there to begin with!
Primealivstyson completely agree. He said on sky today the Munich trip was for something else so theres at least one injury he hasn't disclosed. And his whole boxing style was incredibly stiff, not willing to use his right hand at all, very little foot movement, all from the hip... A very different David Haye than years gone by. Respect to Bellew, but Haye was injured from the first bell
Primealivstyson he wasnt mate he said in interview afterward i was 100 pct. no excuses best man won his exact words he was throwing bombs cause of his big mouth ill ko him in 2 rounds he already said publically i underestimated him .
Of course he's going to say that. He's already learnt his lesson the hard way from the whole Klitschko-Toe saga.
Fuck me, all that bellew done was to beat a disabled man and if the truth be known he well struggled to do that.
It's not bitter, it's facts. Hearn really thinks he can go toe-to-toe with Wilder on the basis of that performance? Come on.
Oxemoron no he wasn't... He's been injured for 5 weeks lol
And haye couldn't beat a fat cruiserweightin the first2 rounds like he and everyone else said would happen.
And correct me if i'm wrong but didn't haye say he'd beat bellew with 1 arm or 1 leg anyway? The cocky cunt got what he deserved end of!
Chezzamaine.. 😂😂 I know this is a bit of a boring comment but in the dictionary it says.. ( disabled) is a person having a physical or mental condition that limits their movements, senses or activities. I definitely think haye in the fight ticked one or two of the definition of a disabled man.
Look at the compubox stats. Haye was getting better and landing more and bellew was getting worse as the fight went on. Round 5 was Hayes best round and bellews worst. The injury killed the fight
no shit, but everyone expected haye to do him in 2 rounds, haye even said he could beat bellew with leg
Can't give credit for someone surviving rounds. It's a fight. Look at it from them trying to beat each other. Haye was winning easy and improving then got injured. Laughable bellew is getting credit for being 4-1 down. Who cares if he was the underdog it's still a fight
Agree that it killed it, but whilst I'm not fond of Bellew, he deserves something for sticking it out and causing what they did predict to happen--that him/his body would give up. They didn't predict Bellew would batter him after all. The thing I can't accept quite as much is Hearn etc.. flippantly saying ''and now he's beaten David Haye'' because it makes it sound like he did batter him! My thought is; why on earth would Bellew want the rematch, assuming Haye could survive it, he'd get killed eventually like he should have before.
And yet Bellew's strategy was to stay in there until Haye gassed, which he did.
No way haye declined so much in 5 years especially in the shape he keeps in. I knew in the 1st few rounds hayes timing was out and he seemed to be plodding compared to the usual springy footwork. He was fucking injured before stepping in the ring so stop trying to brainwash casuals Eddie.
Hearn acting like Bellew KO'd a prime Haye in the first round of a title fight.
'I think he should have been pulled out after 7 rounds', then goes on to act like Bellew just KO'd a prime Mike Tyson. The whole iFL/Sky teams have been absolutely pathetic, tbh. I don't even like Haye that much but the guy had one leg and lasted 5 rounds.
Bellew was more gassed than Haye the whole way through the fight. To say Haye would of gassed when he clearly demonstrated the strength and stamina to carry on fighting balancing on one leg shows he could of gone 12 rounds easily if injury free. Rematch than both should retire.
What happen to all this i could stop tony with a jab, hes gonna leave on a stretcher, only guy who went to hospital after the fight was haye
bopbby lool ironic isn't it, that's Karma for you
bopbby lool he did say in the post fight interview he was surprised by Tony's chin.
illermenerti didn't do his research properly then
craig...plz don't ever comment on my post again,iv just logged on and seen ya have been spreading yer joy all over ifl,tell me... do ya ever have anything to post yourself? or you just spend yer day replying nonsense to others? wats wrong with ya......bit soft are we???? no life have ya?? lonely?? plz share,maybe we can help ya get on with yer life and be more positive!!!!
bopbby lool But it wasn't Bellew that put him in hospital you fool.
"Quigg's going to be in a decent fight" - Ends up in a 10 rounder vs someone who just moved up two weights lol
This might be a shit example but.. If Andy Murray forces Rafa Nadal to run back and forth across the baseline because he knows that he may tire or his body might not hold up, and Nadal continues to play with an Injury. Then would anyone be complaining about Murray celebrating the victory? No because that it part of sport, Bellew didn't cheat, he had a tactic to stay in the fight until the later rounds because he knew there was a good chance Haye's body will break down. Bellew didn't cheat or get a favourable decision.
Haye had 6 rounds to knock Bellew out and he didn't even drop him. Explain that one Haye fans!
Tim bellew was very defensive tim, he is a very clever fighter, haye is most dangerous when fighters step to him and come forward that way he counters and unleashes bombs, haye wasnt right from round1 his stance wasnt right, he looked clumsy and his foot work wasnt that great either, bellew done everything right i like the guy and his boxing, its a case of what if....... be interesting to see where bellew goes now...
Tim you're 100% right, it is a shit example.
Tim if Murray won the tennis game in your analogy because Nadals strings broke in his racket, his still won, but he's gonna look like a nob saying he won because he's better and has more heart/willing to go to dark places etc etc, and yup, Haye didn't get rid of Bellew early as per his prediction, is he the first fighter to call the round in the pre fight circus and be wrong, we'll never know he would of ko'd Bellew at all, but the point is, Haye was winning, was winning comfortably, Bellew was gassing and the big point, that freak injury changed the face of that fight from one that Bellew was losing to an arse kicking contest against a one legged man that was his to lose, Bellew has the W, Haye the L, nothing will ever change that, but let's have the circumstances behind it right.
Picking holes here but I didn't say strings broke on his racket. Anyway, I'm not saying that Haye wasn't winning the fight or that Haye wouldn't of gone onto win the fight. I actually think that Haye would've ended up winning on points, since it didn't look like Haye was himself from round. I totally agree that the injury changed the fight, but to discredit someones victory because he carried out a tactical gameplan is wrong and unfair. I guess Bellew shouldn't of celebrated and should petition for the fight to be ruled a no contest.
It's not the celebrating that is the problem though.
He's acting like he beat a fit Haye. He said "I did what Klitschko couldn't".
one of the shittest PPV cards ever
Peggy Mitchell I stream it and complain lol
Master IP I could afford to pay £1500, you know why? because I only buy stuff when it's value for money
Master IP allot isn't a word neither is alot it's 'a lot'
No one in the U.K. has ever been punished for streaming they go after the distributors
I know you feel ripped off paying for an uncompetitive undercard and freak show main even when Garcia vs Thurman with Lubin and Dawson on the undercard was free in America
Join team stream mate
Master IP I never said it was shit I just said it's not worth £17 especially for me who was working on Sunday morning and may not have decided to watch it live, I did in the end
You don't have to go to extreme length you just visit a website and press play
I pay for sky sports, boxnation and bt. Like I said it's about value for money not whether or not I can afford it, people like you encourage Eddie Hearn to put worse and worse shows on ppv because you buy the shit ones, that's anti consumer
I also buy the good ppv cards, I'll probably buy aj vs klitsckho and brook Spence if they're good cards
Don't tell me you are one of the 80,000 who actually paid to watch Eubank vs quinlan, over 100,000 were watching one stream on Facebook
Tyson Fury got no love for beating a undisputed unified champion, who hadn't lost in eleven years.....Bellew beats a old David Haye......and....now this shit 😐
pre fight Haye " even with 1 arm 1 leg I'll KO Bellew"
Yousaf Humzah ano he still had two arms 😂😂😂 lol
Yousaf Humzah fuck lol I remember this.
but credit to bellew
haye did one hell of a job to throw bombs like that with a injury which in the 6th exploded..
Philip Murray bellew is just saying he had a broken hand. Haye has proven he snapped his Achilles which is 10x worse than a broken hand anyway
Philip Murray he can do more than 6 rounds it's just that the injury happened
Philip Murray also the fight wasn't even before the injury haye was up 4-1
Why is there talk of Bellew fighting Parker for the WBO title
That could be Hughie Furys title in a few months
Jay Thompson Tyson was saying we should expect good things from Hugh
I'm expecting Hughie to be too clever for Parker
Sam Nyicon if Fury can win in German Fury can win in New Zealand...........
So dates been confirmed
Eddie can stop talking about Bellew Parker now
Every one is saying he only won because haye got injured
But bellew broke his hand in
The 3rd round
Bullshit. Bellew making that up so he doesnt look like as much of a clown as he is. He couldn't even KO Haye. Out of his depth at heavyweight.
It went from Broken to Sprained. Haye broke injured his hand against Valuev and still fought.
Boxers can still fight with injured hands. Injured ankles/legs stops all the power and movement.
Wow the hate
wouldn't be have had it in plaster the next day if he'd broken his hand?
Tetlee tetlee fuck off u fucking teabag
Eddie should be embarrassed the way he acted. 5 rounds to finish a man with one leg 😂 😂 then acts like Bellew is the best heavyweight in boxing. Hilarious.
What makes me laugh is anyone saying Haye gassed he looked fresher then Bellew! And he had basically become a punch bag for the rest of the fight but bellew deffinetly deserves credit rematch is probably what is needed.
Hearn will never admit Bellew fluked that. Haye was injured from the start and was 4-1 up landing just the jab. Hollow win
Connor Hinchliffe 😂😂😂😂😂
Kugan you have massively let yourself down with your post-fight antics. You traditionally have always been fairly good at staying neutral (between British fighters at least), but in this case you have been so far up the Matchroom bullshit script, that disgracefully underpinned the sky sports coverage in the aftermath, that you might as well change your job title to Matchroom press officer. BELLEW WOULD QUITE CLEARLY NOT HAVE WON HAD HAYE'S ACHILLES HAD GONE! This isn't a minor bloody injury. If hearn had any integrity or bollocks he would grant Haye the mismatch that Bellew admitted he would give him before the fight.
PHIBIS1 couldn't agree more. Can't knock the content and work the lads put in but when it comes to Matchroom the bias is becoming more and more evident, especially with kuggie.
PHIBIS1- Kugan get the exclusive interviews because his relationship with matchroom. Let me guess your a Haye fan? Go on Bellew!
You don't bite the hand that feeds you bro.
PHIBIS1 bellew you would of done him without the injury
This is not only
True 😈.... But in the never ending Hearn story they actually don't give a fuck ... Barry ...... Then Eddie .... The. His eldest daughter ⏹... All hypocrite douchebags zzz.... Good luck you lot ! 🍆🍆👌👌
For everyone hating on Eddie it's pathetic. Eddie is Bellews promoter, he has to say all these things. If he come out and said bellew only won because of Hayes injury then it completely discredits his own fighter.
If it was Bellew's leg/ankle that buckled and Haye knocked him out, imagine the amount of negative press Haye would get and how much credit Bellew would deserve for 'courage'.
I hope people see Eddie Hearn and matchroom in a different light after Saturday, was appalling that they never mentioned Haye's leg after the fight or even during, it was beyond biased. Bellew couldn't knock out a one legged Haye and he thinks he 'did a number' on him? I'm not even a Haye fan, but this whole thing is a shambles.
NarBleD this !
Absolute respect to Eddie for saying Haye had heart, I believe Tony Bellew said the same. Fair play , hope the rematch comes off
Look, you cannot count this as a legit win for bellew, Haye had possible the worst injury you could get and bellew still couldn't knock him out, there should be a rematch, very unfortunate and unfair situation
At least Hearn has finally acknowledged Hayes injury. But still won't admit Bellew would have lost the fight against a fit Haye. Absolute joke it wasn't mentioned in the after fight interviews from anyone.
Replenish Rewire I know . Absolutely ridiculous . Hollow victory , haye could hardly walk
*Still can't believe Bellew punched a 100% fit David Haye out the ring fantastic performance out boxed him from the 1st bell* 👀
Ghost I can't see you??????
4:10 I believe haye gassed in fight fucking hell what happend from about the 6th round with Bellew then .
Bellew punched himself out going for the win. Bellew has decent power at cruiserweight, but doesn't have serious KO power at heavyweight.
By the way, am I the only one who doesn't give a shit about Joshua/Wlad? I mean, I like A.J. but I just can't get up for a fight against an inactive 40 year old whose last two performances were amongst the worst of his career.
I love how everyone jealous of Hearn, he's doing well, gets behind his fighters and all seem to like to work for him and matchroom. Always puts on a great show. Keep it up Eddie
So what you're saying Eddie, is that Bellew pushed Haye into rupturing his achilles? What a load of shit.
It was a lose lose situation for Haye.
If he mentioned the injury, he would have received abuse for making excuses.
If he didn't mention the injury, Bellew receives praise for dominating a former heavyweight champion.
Well done to Bellew but let's all come back down to what's otherwise known as reality.
All the public want is honesty. Take David Haye's reaction, every right to mention the injury but he said nothing and was congratulatory and humble. Bellew hardly mentioned the injury and goes round saying how he's the most valuable HW in the world
Haye is a victim of his previous excuses. Pulling out of fights and blaming injuries in the past, meant that he couldn't postpone this fight when he got the Achilles injury. He would have been a laughing stock. So he took the fight and the inevitable happened...
Marc Parmley which is why he swung so recklessly to KO Bellew early on. I could tell DH was not moving right
Haye had the injury before the fight the german trip rumours were true but haye knew he couldn't pull out and thought this would be an easy fight
I don't mind Eddie to be honest, and I didn't really care who won before hand, but Haye was clearly injured going into the fight. Bellew didn't take Hayes best anything, because he couldn't throw properly because of the injury. We know this because Bellew is still alive. Haye didn't get tired. Bellew looked terrible and half dead trying for five rounds to knock out a fighter with one leg. The celebration's and delusions after this fight have been cringe worthy. But it was an entertaining fight and worth the money. Keep up the good work. One last thing, what fight did the Sky pundits watch? Only Carl Froch seemed to grasp that Bellew won by default.
Nino Brown Well said. After watching all the aftermath its clear sky tv and matchroom are to close for comfort.
Eddie got Parred off lol
They're forgetting that Haye's achilles wasn't 100% before it snapped, that's why his bounce and speed was gone
Eddie, as much as you try, you cant dress this one up, Haye is in plaster from the knee to the toe, and he still took rounds off Bellew and Bellew was gassed, no credibility comes out of this fight for Bellew, Haye has the heart of a lion, to go 6 rounds with a ruptured Achilles is fucking Brutal and to still take rounds of Bellew was fucking immense. Id put money on it that Bellew is fucking raging the fight turned out like this, you can't dress it up eddie, we all seen it.
jamestoni I'm sure he's raging at the fact he's earned multi million pounds and beat the so called most dangerous heavyweight 😂😂😂😂
Bellew struggled to put away a one legged Haye!
He won't stand a chance with Wilder! no chance in hell!
It could be argued that most agree Haye's performance was dissatisfying during the rounds where the injury was unknown. Keep in mind that I use the word "unknown" because Haye may have very well had the injury for the entire bout, which progressively worsened as the fight progressed. I backed Haye for this fight, but always had my reservations. Despite these reservations, what led to me finalising my pick of Haye being the winner was the thought: "If Haye expects to contend with Anthony Joshua and Wilder, he defeats Bellew." All in all, I was very impressed with Bellew's boxing performance in the early rounds. If he boxed like that in his other fights, he'd be a great talent. I was also very impressed with Haye's heart.
So basically you were relying on a injured Haye to win the boxing fight as opposed to beating him by out boxing him.
Tony Bellew. World Heavyweight Champion? Eddie. Get real man. For fucks sake. I know he's you pal but, He's got as much chance of becoming World Heavyweight Champion as you. If Haye hadn't of got injured. He would have stopped him by about the 8th
I like Hearn and what he's done for boxing but this interview is delusion. Haye went into the fight with an Achilles injury. If you watch it back look at his right foot from R1, he's dragging it along the ring and couldn't find the balance to throw punches. It was 4-1 on the scorecard before he fully ruptured it in R6 which shows the levels of each fighter. Bellew couldn't take a one legged man out, and that's fact if you like it or not.
Real
Calum Nurse he knocked him out of the ring or did you miss that ?
Calum Nurse
Bellew knew he was a broken man and called him out on the last presser. "One arm one leg i'll knock you out" Haye has had an injury and conned his fans.
If Haye beats him with an injury that would have boosted his ego.
Dicko4eva is that a serious comment ?
Haye went into the fight with an injury? Who gives a fuck LOL that is not bellews problem or Eddie hearns.. Haye got exposed accept it
He took his best shots, but Haye's power would not have been 100% on a damaged achilles, plus he was reaching for it where normally Haye would counter and people would be walking on to it, because they're is no way Bellew's chin is better than Chisora's
when did haye gas in the fight? bellew won round 1. haye won round 234&5 and then had one leg from round 6 onwards... so when did he gas mr eddie hearn?
K Thomas haye is definitely past his best but he will win the rematch if fit
yep
couldn't even finish a one legged man, the last knockdown came as a result of Hayes messed up leg getting tangled under the bottom rope, fair enough you won but to be so over the top and pleased is a joke
What credit? for beating a guy with 1 leg and still struggled to finish him of piss off Hearn ya mug!
that palm off was too funny
Tony Bellew deserves all the credit and congrats in the world. Most of us thought it could be over before we blink. Let's not forget everything David said before. He said it over and over again. He deserves credit and praise for his tenacity, strength and courage but Tony deserves even more credit for absorbing a lot of punishment and then not losing his head to finish with a flurry
Haye couldnt knock Bellew out before round 6 and he never looked like he could so people need to stop crying about it. Haye should never of got in the ring in the first place go watch rounds 1 to 5 and be honest with yourself if he never got injured he wouldnt of knocked Bellew out. Haye didnt fight for the wba n wbc against Briggs because he wouldnt sign up for vada drug testing and for this fight they was no drug testing thats why he fought a cruserweight for no belts.
haye went in to the fight injured, he boxed like he was injured, he went for it because he new his injury would only get worse. haye's movement and fighting position was bad and i think that was because of the injury. yes fairplay for bellew taking the fight but money talks, but if he fight a healthy heavyweight he will get hurt, he should concentrate on unification fights in the cruiserweight division.
audio man spot on totally agree
audio man wilder and Parker would smash bellew
lol Kugans laugh is like something out of a carry on film
Tony Bellew started and fought for a world title at light heavyweight which is 12 and a half stone and beat a former Heavyweight champion of the world who was expected to win in a few rounds ,the injury happened but it had a lot to do with the man he was facing and the pressure he put on him Tony Bellew has a total commitment and dedication to be a champion.
Yes Eddie it is a fight but it is also a sport and the injury to Haye would of caused an instant stop to proceedings in any other sport and in most other boxing matchups. In terms of you saying it is a fight , yeah we can understand injuries caused by the actual fight such as cuts but this was a ruptured achilles which had no relation to the risks of boxing or Tony Bellews ability. How can you expect everyone to be giving Bellew tons of credit when Haye was physically unable to compete.
This is not me being a Haye fan , its me being a boxing fan and feeling disappointed i missed out on the event i payed for. Rematch please.
Im gonna get sooooo annoyed reading these upcoming comments.....haye is garbage get over it???
They still believe the once great David Haye will once again reign supreme! Tony already stated the obvious, David Fake 3.0 will soon be coming to a TV screen near you soon!
its so funny, the opponents hayes picked, his constant injures, his ducking the likes of briggs blatantly, honestly and these guys were saying haye would KO A.J, unreal.
i havent read about this 3 million pounds and ppv demand, do you have any facts on the matter for me to read up on?
Even tho Eddies talking crap about Haye being tired ..because he wasn't Bellew was even the commentator mentioned it .. and Bellew said to his corner he's not getting tired in a post fight interview , also Eddie Haye was winning 4 rounds to 1 until the injury u don't mention that either .. but fair play if you grant Haye a rematch that's the honourable thing to do!
You've got to love fast Eddie " WE will fight deontay WE will fight parker" LMFAO.
Both Haye and Bellew looked like complete bums. Even before the injury Haye looked shot but he still would have won if he remained injury free. Both should retire IMO. If not then have the rematch then both stroll off into the sunset.
Hearn chatting shit again. Haye was injured BEFORE the fight, so Bellew hardly took Haye's best shots as Haye was not fit and could not generate his full power from the injury he was carrying. So basically Bellew lost 4 out of the first 5 rounds to a guy that was injured. Then when Haye could not walk, Bellew could not even knock him out. Haye wasn't gassed. He just could not walk. Oh and Bellew did not break his hand, I just don't believe it.
hows eddie hearn chattin his boxin knowledge is up there wit the best ur chattin shit more like
I really enjoy listening to him, especially the part hes talking bout bellew and the drawing of how bellew doesnt even realize whats happening to him. great promotor
Lol already 22 dislikes after 12 minutes when the video is over an hour. Eddie Hearn haters are so fucking weird
'He definitely hasn't snapped it or you can't walk' yeah no shit but he still stood on the ropes on one leg and traded for another 5 rounds....with it snapped. You can see the footage shows it snaps. Good tear up but Bellew won't do it again.
Didn't age well tbf
Notice everyone is mentioning Parker
....Parker won't have that title soon come may
Well don't you look silly. Have you learnt not to spout opinions as facts yet?
Thinking back to what Haye was saying to Eddie at the press comfrence lol All that shit he was saying he would do to matchroom. Bless him
Haye was looking comfortable, he wasn't gassed he simply realised the Bellew is a tough lad so he reverted to boxing skills landing that jab, Bellew to me looked gassed and I fully believe 8th and beyond Bellew would have been struggling in there. The injury was an absolute gift and it shows how poor Bellew is because Haye won a round late on, one-legged.
Haye looked wild and slow from round 1 timing was way off but Bellew did the right thing go defensive early Haye was missing and Bellew was countering, then Bellew took a some big shots Haye hit him with everything he had and Bellew was still there. Haye was gassing before the injury and it was still a fairly even fight which was turning in Bellews favour. Haye is a part timer that only boxes for money and paid the price for his inactivity and for underestimating Bellew everyone was just assuming Haye was guna be his old self when we learned nothing in his two comeback bum fights basically karma came and bit Haye on the arse for conning the public on several occasions, ducking Fury and for all the excuses lies and shit he's come out with over the years so glad I bet on Bellew
Smiffyalltheway gtfoh, no way was the fight anyway near close before the injury, way one way traffic and only one fighter looked like gassing pre-injury, Bellew won fair and square in the ring, but don't talk bollocks about the how and why.
Haye was injured thats why his timing etc was off.
Wow couldn't have said it any better. But you forgot to add David was the one ended up in hospital and a shot finished fighter.
Mattchew UK sorry, but where have you seen that scorecard ? Pretty sure every round from 6 onwards went to Bellew, can't seem to find an official scorecard online.
Mattchew UK no. no he didnt lol
Why are people still chatting shit that bellew only won because of the injury etc. Maybe that would have been the case but unless you have a crystal ball there's no way you could know for sure. At the end of the day bellew got the job done and let's face it haye did not do what he said he was going to do. He had 5 rounds to take bellews head off, put him in hospital, end bellews career. All of which he did not do. Bellew took plenty of clean shots from haye and still stood toe to toe. All ifs and buts it's BS. When history looks back all it will show is bellew beat haye round 11 TKO end of chat
Vw T25 👌👌👌👌👌
Vw T25 best response I have heard all weekend. Spot on.
How on earth can anyone think the fight was scripted! They smashed each other all over awesome action!
A rematch between Haye and Bellew MUST HAPPEN. You can't leave unfinished business like that. Imagine if Bellew fights either Wilder or Parker next and wins the World Heavyweight Title, then makes Haye his first defense at Wembley...
say what you want but since Eddie Hearn has become involved British boxing on tv has become a lot better.
Still some mis matches but that will always be the case in boxing because of politics.
bellew only won that fight because of the injury to haye,we all know it nomatter who you support.
bm2g Why you talking as if Bellew didn't know he could only beat Haye if he was fucked..Bellew said before the fight Haye is fucked and he was proved right..Job done
Smh. People actually think when Haye was saying 'I'll KO him with a jab' that meant 'I would love it if my Achilles blows out in round 6 so that I can actually attempt to fight a professional boxer on one leg'. Bellew didn't win nothing. Nobody should even be claiming a victory.
Yes Bellew did ok for a couple of rounds at the start , but so did brook v ggg and khan v canelo then what happened? They got knocked the fuck out by the bigger man, Haye was just finding his range and this is probably what would have happened to bellew if not for the injury.
for 6 rnds.... lol then, if, what, blahblahblah
Totally agree with Eddie here
The only people who get offended for Trash talking are OAP's. The youth love it. All these old aged guys that are saying shit like boxings a gentlemans sport, just to condone there love for violence. when it's really just It's two dudes slugging it out trying to take each other's head off, it's brutal. And for them old heads that say it's gentleman like that need to just stop watching it becuase they obviously try to take some sort of moral high ground, when they really are watching a fight, we the youth love the drama love the blood and love the brutal aspects bad blood sells. Simple as that.
Fight IQ some people appreciate respect and class, while others like trash talking and shenanigans. There's no need to dream up a weird conspiracy theory
Because the old heads see past the bullshit and fakeness of it all and realise its all about milking money out of people whether its for tickets or pay per veiw.... While the youth are thick as fuck and believe any shite....
Eddie Hearn does a great job for his fighters. If people don't want to watch his shows or interviews then you can choose not to.
Ask him why he insisted that they remove the tape from hayes ankle. That was so petty.
All comments & talk is pointless there's only one outcome and thats a REMATCH Haye risked all and gave the opportunity and a shit load of money now it's Tony's turn to repay the favour SIMPLE as a man he should want to win fair n square.... Let's see whats what... haye was not fucking tired WTF his mouth was shut the whole fight
Clearly haye had the rumoured achillies injury and it fully went in the 6th round. Take nothing away from bellew but he wasnt beating hay before the aachillies fully went and couldnt be a cripple. Good luck with the Wilder fight bomber :)))))
No one is having a go at what Bellew did. It's the reaction like he beat a fully fit Haye and how he's going on with himself. He won because of an injury. Fair play to Bellew but he and the media with him are causing the reaction.
Also Eddie's best celebration was Froch against Bute. Was in the ring before the fight stopped.
Haye looked wild,complacent and couldn't even get the appropriate ring attire right with that ridiculous unsupportive footwear he wore, embarrassing for him and Mcguigan in the corner.Bellew was composed, professional,focused and got it done,all credit goes to him.
First thought... Yass man, brilliant mad Eddie! Instant thumbs up. Filthy casual. CAMMMOOONNNN!!!
Haha
hw the fuck does bellew get any credit for beating a one legged man 😂😂😂
id love fury to beat parker just to see what a big promotion between hearn and Warren will be like.
What do people reckon Tony Bellew said in David Hayes's ear for that long period of time after the fight?
hahaha the haye fan boys crack me up. keep crying
Josh youare not fan boys , just saying it like it is
heard many bellew fans agree as well. only deluded people believe bellew won legitimately, or that he would have won regardless of the injury or not.
im a neutral, and i can see bellew did nothing much the whole fight, haye was wild early, trying to take him out with 1 shot, knowing he was injured pre fight i presume, as everyone knows he was. then that didn't work, so he settled down began to wear bellew down, winning pretty much every round except arguably round1. then the achilles snapped in the 6th, and bellew still couldnt put haye away who could only put weight on 1 leg.
people need to stop acting idiots because they either support bellew or hate haye. just call it how it is. you don't even know these guys personally, they're not worth looking a fool over
Eddie u knew he was injured stop it now please
I love how eddie won't admin haye would of walked the rest of the fight without the injury.
😊
INJURED BEFORE THE FIGHT AND IT JUST WAS WORSENED IN THE 6th BEYOND REPAIR. It's so clear from the slow ring walk alone. Eddie and all the insiders know this and the leaks days before the fight that he injured his ACHILLES is no coincidence. It's way to specific to be a lie made up. Haye could never give up the fight in the end because of the stick he would have got. I don't dislike Bellew and he did what he had to you can't blame him but the lack of insistence that the injury was the reason the fight ended how it did is so ridiculous. Haye would have knocked him out in the later rounds like he did chisora. The man won round 8 with a torn Achilles. It's just Eddie Hearn supporting his performer and making him as big as possible just don't fall for it.
Lolling at all the salty haye day fans in the comments
Johnny Cage ano its Hayelarious!
Johnny Cage Mate, I wanted Bellew to win. Nothing to do with being a "salty Haye fan". Fact is Bellew had a one legged man in front of him and struggled to get him out of there. Also, Yes Hayes timing was way off and it's clear he's not the fighter he once was, but he was still way ahead until the injury. He definitely deserves a rematch.
Johnny Cage laughing out loud ling?
Silver Spoon Eddie.... Can you imagine his face if Vlad knocks out his cash cow!!!
B Wiz that's not happening and you know it
You can ascertain's Hearn's happiness by the length of these videos and other things. Kugan's happiness is correlated with the "other things".
Let's have a MEGA card then in the future, Fury just announced his return, FURY V JOSHUA, THE SCOUSE BOMBER V THE BRONZE BOMBER, DEGALE V GROVES 3
