Rumours all over twitter that Haye is pulling out with an Achilles injury. will be absolutely gutted if he does. Not because I want to see the fight, but because they'll likely only postpone it to a later date, Bellew will be even more of an insufferable wankrag, and then they'll have to 'build' it again. That would be absolutely fucking horrific.

If he pulled out he's done!!  Reading now he's been in touch with matchroom saying fights on

It's his job. Pre-fight his job is to sell the fights so people buy them, if he says "Bellew/Brook have absolutely no chance, it's a sham fight, no point watching it" then he'll be out on his ear quicker than Fast Eddie can sing the words to Neil Diamond tracks.

As long as he's subjective and honest after the fight then I've no problem with the bullshit in the lead up.

Lie to people, insult their intelligence, con the general public- but as long as you admit after you were lying it's sound?

Are there any decent fights on the haye Bellew undercard? In a present moment of weakness I'm contemplating buying it...

No. It's one of if not the worst PPV in recent times, which is good going considering the amount that Eddie chucks at us.

Bellew weighed in 213 lbs, Haye was 224.

Bellew was saying he and his team are delighted by Haye's weight.  I don't think it'll be a factor to be honest, unless Bellew wants to box him and take him into the final rounds.

Haye's weights fighting at heavyweight have ranged from 210 to 227.  It's not that much of a difference.

That there are people even considering that this could happen shows what an excellent job the sky hype machine has done in building this fight.
