Anybody watching tonight?

Hard to see Paulie losing like that, a shell of himself. Hopefully he calls it a day. Pretty poor card so far, not that I expected differently.

[Baby faced assassin]

Rubbish card

Thought Paulie was doing well against Eggington but he was always outgunned

Don't expect this to be a long night, Taylor should win this fairly easily and Haye was do the same to bellew

[Pedro147]

It's like a normal Saturday Night card but with two 'big names' for the main fight which somehow is justifying it as PPV.

[Scottrf]

Brutal finish from KT.

[Happytravelling]

Not a bad round for bellew.

Haye forcing the action too much but bellew countering OK

[Guest]

I Hope Bellew doesn't get cocky and leave himself open. He just has to avoid a haye-maker.

[Scottrf]

Haye seems like he has the red mist. Not controlled at all.

[Guest]

Bellew should keep things long. Bellew surely cannot hope to knock Haye out.

[Happytravelling]

Haye missing a lot and bellew looking OK with the counter.

But bellew on his toes and moving to keep out of range

[Baby faced assassin]

Bellew making haye miss a lot but isn't really landing much himself

Interesting to see if he can keep out if range you'd imagine he becomes more into it as the rounds go on

[Happytravelling]

It was always a fight that, unless bellew went over early and badly, was no lose for him but bellew is doing ok.

Haye looks to hurried and is bellew is making him miss, badly

[Happytravelling]

Bellew still fighting tactically. Keeping it at distance and moving.

Obviously respecting the power.

As the rounds go on it will favour haye

[Happytravelling]

Still looks a haye fight but bellew is warming a little and starting to trade. But it's sporadic and not all action.

[Guest]

Listening on the radio. Looks like Bellew is trying to knock out Haye.

[owen10ozzy]

Hayes knee has popped. Could see it clear as day!!

[Happytravelling]

How bazaar. Haye ricks his knee and is now struggling!

Looks like bellew might win this!

[owen10ozzy]

Can't question Hayes heart now that's for certain! But ref should stop this!

[Happytravelling]

It's his leg but he still looks tired and shot.

What is the issue?

[Baby faced assassin]

God how is haye still standing

Big heart but he's taking a beating

Bellew punching himself out possibly?

[owen10ozzy]

Ruptured ankle...definite knee injury their too! And to think..Haye was the one saying that Bellews career would be over after this..

Sad way for anyone to go out mind!

[Fernando]

Surprised the corner not thrown the towel in but so far all it's proved is Bellew has the power of a toddler

[Scottrf]

Bellew just needs to not take risks. In poor shape. Considering the pace he should not be blowing.

[owen10ozzy]

When you not only survive with a serious injury but you take a round off someone with a ruptured Achilles/knee etc...your the true winner of the fight lol

[Baby faced assassin]

Bellew needs to stop loading up Haye is still too slippery for that

Bellew looks like he's empty as well

[Guest]

Dodgy leg and overweight. Bellew can keep this long and win.

[Scottrf]

Bellew should have taken 5 minutes there.

[owen10ozzy]

I had Haye winning that 9th! Bellew 1 up and Haye has been injured for the past 3 lol

[Baby faced assassin]

He must feel that haye is in a worse place so the rest suits haye more

[owen10ozzy]

Coldwell being the rat Haye described...trying to get ref to take the tape off an ankle that's hanging by a thread! Disgusting

[Scottrf]

He must feel that haye is in a worse place so the rest suits haye more

Bellew seems more tired though and the ankle wont heal in 5 minutes.

[Baby faced assassin]

Almost embarrassing for Bellew.....haye literally on one leg

[seanmichaels]

You can't fight with a serious knee injury. Certainly didn't pop or rupture it

[Steffan]

Haye is shot and all best of buddies now

I lost money but hey I've won in the past so that's how it goes

Little Dog Haye needs to retire. Bellew won without doing sod all

PPV magic my friends ;-)

[owen10ozzy]

Fair play to Bellew...however that's as hollow a victory if ever I've seen one. I mean...he lost 2 of the rounds that Haye could barely walk for Christ sake...sadly...going to have to listen to Bellew crow about this forever and an age

Erm I'll think you would find that the body can do incredible things on adrenaline...that is without a doubt a major major injury...even if it's not ruptured it basically stopped him fighting..which is what he was in the ring for.

[Fernando]

Sky claiming one of the biggest upsets in boxing. He beat a guy on 1 leg who outboxed him until he got injured

#ClassicEddieHearnMachine

[wheelchair1991]

Almost embarrassed for Bellew, Adam smith saying Bellew is now a massive star...don't see it myself

[Happytravelling]

A bit harsh Steffan.

Haye did look old/rusty though.

He's debts to pay. We'll see him again

[Mr Bounce]

I think that sounds like a career ending fight for Haye. That ankle and/or knee is going to take some time to fix.

[owen10ozzy]

Yuck! Might as well strip and roll around with each other....the love in is disgusting.

[Scottrf]

This is bizzare. Bellew talking about having the heart. Haye saying it's the best fight. Nobody going to mention the ankle (which is classy from Haye tbf).

[wheelchair1991]

I do not want to see that again

[seanmichaels]

Fair play to Bellew...however that's as hollow a victory if ever I've seen one. I mean...he lost 2 of the rounds that Haye could barely walk for Christ sake...sadly...going to have to listen to Bellew crow about this forever and an age

Try tell Marco van basten that

[wheelchair1991]

Most bizarre post fight interview ever

[owen10ozzy]

Haye not even mentioning the injury. Was their one after all? Think he knows how ridiculed he was after the Wlad fight so perhaps just keeping it shut this time around

[wheelchair1991]

I think that's the reason Owen tbh

[SweetScience]

Feel sick listening to this post fight interview!

[Steffan]

Trusscargo is gonna love this

English boxing embarrassment fight would never happen in the States and all that jazz

[Atila]

Didn't see the fight, just read the result online. Sorry to hear that Haye suffered a leg injury, but still, I want to congratulate Bellew. It's not his fault that Haye couldn't fight at 100%. All Bellew can do is show up and put forward an honest effort, which it seems he did. I have a feeling that if Bellew had a bad leg and Haye had won, everybody would dismiss Bellew's leg injury and say that Haye would have won anyway.  So well done Bellew.

[Guest]

Hayes wants to be obliged. Will Bellew oblige him? Apart from that I hope Bellew fights Haye again.

[Guest]

The BBC allowing mudder-fudder to be broadcast. Bellew talking industrial language.
