ECHO Arena is the biggest in Liverpool.. It holds 9,000..

London is better..

Only the Manchester Arena has a higher capacity (by 1,000) than O2 Arena.
I bet they could have sold out Goodison Park if it was in the summer.
bellew simply isnt that big a ticket seller.

hayes crowd are all london and southeast and wont travel to liverpool.

this fight is garbage, neither man is s force at heavyweight. haye is well past it and bellew wouldnt stand a chance against wilder or joshua he would be annihilated.

Bellew is a bit of a prick.

He’s the type of scouser that gives them all a bad name. Gobby and entitled martyr.

That's what I always thought.. He's not toned/chiseled or anything. Yet has shape on the hips.

To be fair, wasn’t that fight put together really quickly? I’m sure the tickets were only actually on sale for a week or two?

Stop being ridiculous. A broken hand is nowhere near as debilitating as a ruptured achilles, fighters fight one with broken hands all the time.

Next.
The only that is ridicolous is you. Did i have compare the two things?
well if you think ppl are being unobjective by mentioning one but not the other youve obviously compared those injuries and thought that it must be bias that results in one being mentioned more then the other, rather then ppl looking at each case and seeing that hayes is actually much worse

if you havent compared the injuries why the hell even post that ppl arent being objective because they mention hayes more?

perhaps you should make a fair comparison and then youll see why hayes is thought of as a much bigger deal
I'm just saying that for an objective analysis, we must consider also the Bellew injuri, because It has influenced the match.

A broken had (depending on the break) will go numb and afford the fighter some use. An Achilles tendon goes and you are dead in the water. Many describe it as being hit from behind on the ankle, but when they look, no one is there. I suggest those who doubt this to cut their Achilles tendon and try to walk or stand. Haye has to be a tough SOB to continue after such an injury.

You were listening to the commentary on lasts nights Arsenal game weren’t you? 😀

Did you see how in pain that arsenal player was? To think Haye carried on.........


Anyway, Haye at 220lbs don’t fill me with confidence at all

I wasn't, but I imagine it was related. I was thinking about Vinny Testaverde, and American Football player who QB'd the Jets and decribed his Achilles heel injury.

It was bad. He couldn't stand or use his leg to put power behind his punches. Those swings were just literally swings.

a fighter with a ruptured achilles is ...pardon the pun, totally hamstrung. no ability to pivot on that foot and no power in any shots.

To be fair to Bellew he was dry as a bone vs Stevenson IIRC. Let’s see how he takes a Hayemaker fully hydrated.
