David Haye in hot water with British Board over vow to “do serious damage to his [Bellew’s] head”

David Haye in hot water with British Board over vow to “do serious damage to his [Bellew's] head”

David Haye, by his own admission, has a genuine and thorough dislike for Tony Bellew, the man he will fight this Saturday night in London, and the nasty pre-fight words Haye has aimed at his rival have now got him in trouble. The British Boxing Board will “be speaking with him this week,” and Haye could face a sanction as a result of his vicious comments.

For whatever reason, or reasons, Bellew has got under Haye’s skin far more than any previous opponents of the former WBA heavyweight champ managed to do (part of Bellew’s plan all along?) and Haye has gone too far with his pre-fight promise to “hospitalise” Bellew, to end his career and to “do serious damage to his head.”

David Haye issues nasty combination punch warning to Tony Bellew: we’re practicing hitting a falling target

David Haye issues nasty combination punch warning to Tony Bellew: we're practicing hitting a falling target

David Haye really is feeling it as far as wanting to put a nasty beating on his equally vocal March 4 rival Tony Bellew. Haye, who is convinced he will win, not only wants to win but to also score a viciously memorable KO win. And Haye, with a nasty edge to his tone in speaking with Sky Sports, said he isn’t looking to flatten Bellew with one punch.

No, Haye wants to blast his rival with a hurtful, “three, four, five-punch combination.” Haye says he is even working on hitting a falling target.

Drop me and pick up £1,000 says Tony Bellew

Drop me and pick up £1,000 says Tony Bellew

Tony Bellew insists he is already in absolutely great shape for his big heavyweight showdown with David Haye. Sparring ten and 12 rounds daily, Bellew is putting the rounds in and, as he tells BBC Radio, he is “not blowing one bit in any of those rounds.”

Bellew did not name his sparring partners but he did say that “these guys are out-weighing me by two-and-a-half stone (35 pounds).” Bellew is of course moving up to heavyweight (or back to it in a way, as “Bomber” fought at heavyweight in his amateur days a long, long time ago now) and he is a considerable underdog going into the March 4 duel with Haye.

Haye says he never wanted to fight Bellew, warns the beating his rival will take will be “one of the most brutal inside a British boxing ring”

Haye says he never wanted to fight Bellew, warns the beating his rival will take will be “one of the most brutal inside a British boxing ring”

Will proven heavyweight David Haye take out cruiserweight moving up Tony Bellew in double-quick time on March 4, or will “The Hayemaker” dish out a prologued beating? If you are a Bellew supporter and feel “Bomber” will get the win in his heavyweight debut, then it’s perhaps best you read no further.

For Haye, in speaking with IBTimes UK, warned how the “brutal beating” he will give Bellew in just under six week’s time will be so severe that people will “call into question why this fight actually happened.” Haye says that at no point did he go looking for Bellew as an opponent and that the one-sided nature of the fight, along with the brutal nature of the damage he inflicts on Bellew, will make the decision to allow this fight to happen appear “irresponsible.”

Tony Bellew: The last time Haye took a heavy shot was against Monte Barrett and he got put on the floor

Reigning WBC cruiserweight king Tony Bellew is convinced he has the beating of David Haye, this despite the fact that “Bomber” will be having his heavyweight pro debut, at the age of 34, on March 4.
