    Is Haye limping or just knackered?

    I take it you havent watched the whole fight? His ankle went in the 6th to the point that he couldnt stand up

    Bellew is knackered too, just needs to stay out of reach now though.

    Bellew struggling carrying the weight imo.
    Any heavyweight would have stopped him by now.

    Is it the Achilles scare he had?

    All the stick Haye (rightly) got for the toe injury, IF he has torn his Achilles and he is carrying on the guy is a hero.

    I can now see the ankle is heavily strapped. Clearly wasn't fit to fight, but knew if he pulled out of another fight his career was finished

    If this was against a true heavyweight instead of a fat lightweight, he would have been sparked by now. Bellews chance in this fight was get it to go long and get Haye tired/injured and that's exactly what happened.

    Good point, if he was injured before the fight, strange choice of footware in that case. No ankle support in the boots.

    Not got the power to knock out an opponent who has been standing on the ropes absorbing punches for 5+ rounds

    Really wanted the scouser to get sparked but Haye looks too old these days

    Credit to Bellew for all the bad blood etc. He wemt straight over there and hugged him, he's fucking ecstatic with that, but he must respect Haye for fighting through it

    For all the stick David Haye rightly got for that toe incident against Klitschko, I hope people give him the credit and respect he deserves for battling through tonight's fight with a bad injury. Absolute warrior

    A guy with a granite jaw, a stone heavier, taller, naturally built bigger, no matter what you say about him Bellew taking this fight on alone was pretty ballsy. Sure he hasn't got the power to knock him out but I had him edging it before the injury anyway.

    Haye needed a first half KO, he didn't get it and his ankle gave way.

    Only 3 things were going to happen after that, stoppage, Bellew KO's Haye or Bellew points decision

    I'll give Haye some respect for carrying on like he did however a few points:

    All this cringeworthy build up, should have been stopped when he was getting pummeled, the towel thrown in at 9 and a half seconds, Bellew couldn't knock out a wank, the commentators carrying on like this is the greatest victory in the history of boxing and they are already talking about a rematch.

    And people would still pay to see this. Shambles.

    Shame as was shaping up to be a good fight.

    Very brave by Haye. Real shame as it's probably end of his career and seeing him in the ring again against a decent opponent makes me realise what an exciting fighter he is.

    Fair play to Bellew for being classy.

    Doubt rematch will happen but if it does would be a great contest based on the early rounds. Would give bellew'so body time to get used to the extra weight.

    Freaky fight but better than watching our football highlights.

    Haye was class in not even acknowledging the injury which essentially ended the contest there and then.
