Hagler/Leonard was a Monday wasn't it? Sunday fight is cool, good way to finish the weekend. Haye is despised by many true boxing fans but still revered by casual fans and we'll all tune in to watch because we know that if the old lion can still bite some arse it could be beautiful and who doesn't want to see Bellew get flattened by a genuine big puncher? This will be car crash tv and we know it!

In the first fight Haye's timing was fucked - Salas will sort that out.
In addition the obvious which many of you have pointed out in different ways - Haye needs to get through the training camp injury free.
But, I keep thinking theres not a chance Haye can box as badly as he did in the first fight - my thinking is, if there is any improvement in Haye that should be enough for him to win.
After all that I spent a few years with Haye and I think he is a **** ... I want but dont think He will ... Bellew to win
What's the matter with Haye? Is he a bit of a cold fish/remote. Also, has he Halley out with his brother-in-law. They both work in boxing, but never mention each other any more. Bizzare.

You mean Elliot Worsell presumably? Used to post on here a lot back in the day as Get In The Ring (GITR). As an aside, has anyone read his latest book, Dog Rounds, as looks good to me so thinking of grabbing it when I've got some time?

That's him. I've not read it yet, but will, and expect it to be good; he is an excellent writer, I think. I like Haye. Seems a bright spark and knows how to play the game.Interested to hear why some people don't warm to him.
