I'll be cheering Fury; I've nothing against Haye and he had his chance at the top and didn't really seize it (v Wlad); he seems to be hanging around, taking one lucrative bout a year and isn't really going for the top of the tree. Fury, for his faults is hungry, is willing to take risks and goes for it; if Haye wins we probably won't see him again for a year and he'll angle for a shot - he won't fight a top contender. If Fury wins then he'll keep trying to climb up there, (probably if he loses as well).

I have no real preference, but if pushed I'd say Fury because it'll be interesting seeing where he goes next instead of Haye being out of the ring for another year waiting for anther payday, plus the reaction on here would be priceless.

I've followed Hayes career for some time now (am and pro) and its my interest in Haye (rather than a dislike of Fury) that makes me want him to win. I've followed Fury from early on too and backed him on here for plenty of fights, just not this one. Thats allowed

I favour Haye because I believe his ceiling is higher ( he is the more talented fighter of the two ) have followed him for years and he is English ( so is Fury but there is too much beating of the Irish drum from Tyson )

I like Fury though.

It seems some, dare I say it, modern boxing fans, bring the football fan mentality with their support. It's either one or the other, you can't support two fighters etc
Look at the divisions Mayweather/PAC brought, and to a much lesser extent, Fury/Price. It seemed some simply couldn't accept it was possible to like both fighters and anything negative said about one of the fighters meant you were instantly a "nuthugger" of the other!
Load of old shite

Have i said I hope Fury breaks Hayes toe ??

I've supported Haye thoughout his career so I'm definitely hoping for him to beat Fury. I wasn't Fury's biggest fan beforehand but I must say he's won me over a little in the build up to this one; I'm finding him entertaining and funny and is definitely doing his bit to drum up interest.
