Originally posted by eritheagle Unfortunately not all the good ones are shown on BT too. BT announced last week that they are launching a ppv channel soon. For the record, if Haye's as good as he says he is again then i think he'll knock him out early. If not then i think Bellew on points. I'm hoping Bellew wins again though. GGG v Alvarez, Billy Joe Saunders and James DeGale all have been. I can't think of many other decent Warren shows. Fury's only real big fight was on Sky too. BT have barely any subscribers as it is, their PPV attempts will be about as successful as ITV's. Haye should win comfortably if he doesn't keep trying to knock his block off and just boxes him. Don't really mind who wins, neither are that palatable. Edited by Stuk (04 May 2018 4.06pm) Optimistic as ever

Originally posted by Frickin Saweet Of course this is true, but also crucial is the mental side of sport and especially boxing. Haye looked very weak and 'found out', he was scrambling for words. If he carries that frame of mind into the ring he's going to struggle I don't hold too much store in verbal exchanges between fighters. Bellew has a lot to say for himself - he won't have too much to say when he is on the deck ! Haye carries the punch power and this could be crucial.

Originally posted by Frickin Saweet this was a pretty mediocre presser until about 14mins when the niceties go out the window. Haye looks worried when Bellew starts talking the talk [Link] It's not often you see Haye lost for words and squirming. His confidence has obviously taken a dent and I'd expect that to influence his boxing when he has to dig deep. Edited by Frickin Saweet (04 May 2018 4.01pm) He's just biting his tongue I think, he knows his mouth was in overdrive last time and losing made him look really stupid. I think that he thinks nice is the way forward (although he's faking it) after seeing the riches and fans it's brought to AJ. Edited by Stuk (04 May 2018 4.09pm) Optimistic as ever

Butler weighed in over 3 pounds over the limit. How can you be that daft when it's for a world title? Or it would've been anyway. Optimistic as ever

Originally posted by Willo But will he "Walk the walk" ? Haye will do his talking in the ring. Haye has the punching power with 26 of his 28 wins coming by KO. Bellew's record is 19 of his 29 wins by KO. Edited by Willo (04 May 2018 4.04pm) Not sure if Haye Still has the devastating punch power that he used to , he caught Bellew pretty flush a couple of times, before the injury in the first fight. Few years ago he would have been on his back. I’m looking forward to the fight , although I can’t really see where the winner will go after, Bellew would go back to cruiser weight. Haye would need to beat Whyte/Puluev/Parker to get a title fight. I like to think I know a bit about boxing, but after the last fight, I’m f*cked if I know who will win. The draw might be a decent bet.

I hope the ref beats the crap out of both of them and tells them to f'off and stop wasting the publics time. Buy Litecoin.

Originally posted by Stirlingsays No not dirt cheap, but I said compared to the US it's dirt cheap. We probably pay a reasonable level. It's important that we don't support weak ppv cards though as we all know that the Hearns and Warrens would just love any encouragement to serve them up. I pay $10.99 a month for Showtime which has top fights (and Billions).
