Nobody has a size advantage here significant enough that it's gonna be the determining factor in the fight.

Haye is the bigger man, so weight will be a factor.

He's also toned with muscle rather than flab

Terrible fight but at least we get to see one of these perennial duckers get sparked, which will obviously be Bellew.

Who's Bellew ducked?

I don't think these two have ducked anyone - well not in comparison with other boxers and how boxing works today

Bellew will get sparked and I'm looking forward to it

Haye ducked Cunningham and Fury.

Absolutly no chance, as you say the casuals will fall for that panto BS hook line and sinker

Haye ducked Cunningham and Fury.

He didn't duck Fury. He got injured, just like Fury did against Klitschko. Injuries happen. It's a part of boxing and not in anyway ducking,

Why isn't he fighting him then? He knows what will happen.

Much as I'd love to see a brutal double ko, I don't think I'd bother buying the PPV. It'd be a radio job for me, then straight onto YouTube to enjoy the no doubt hilarious highlight reel.

Not sure about Cunningham, can't remember tbf - though he travelled to France and KO'ed Mormeck, who was the man at CW at the time

Fury was an odd one, Haye looked uncomfortable at the pressers and didn't look like he wanted to be there and being out staged

I thought at the time he was struggling to think he could beat Fury and then the injury - no belts on the line (?) but £3-4mil surely worth the risk?

Ducking I don't know

It wouldn't be PPV would it?

Tony would get mullered in my opinion, he's far to easy to hit.

Not sure if you're joking? Course it would, no question at all.

How much money would that fight make him?

Would it be worthy of PPV in your opinion?

Well I already said I wouldn't buy it, so no

But it's probably more worthy than Bellew-Cleverly was.

3 times less than the Haye fight would make him. Both fights would have the same outcome and he knows it.

3 times?

More like 10+

Haye would smash him. Breidis would be a closer fight

Ha ha Whisky it would be better than that as you'd be absolutely guaranteed to see a KO.

That's ducking then. Avoiding his mandatory to move up and take a farcical mismatch for 10 times the payday.

How is taking a much bigger fight ducking?
