Following his triumph, on Sunday evening, whereby Tony Bellew claimed the vacant WBC world cruiserweight title, the new champion called out David Haye.
In doing so Bellew referred to the former two-weight world champion as the Bermondsey Bitch, not a term that Haye would have expected to accept lying down.
Well it seems that Haye has picked up the gauntlet thrown down by Bellew and is quoted, in the press, as having remarked,
?Maybe the punch that dropped you in the first round scrambled your brain.
?You must have lost your mind to be talking about knocking me out. After I?ve knocked out Shannon Brigs, I?ll smash you to bits. Let?s do it you want it.?
With Haye operating at heavyweight and probably unable, or willing, to drop back down to cruiserweight, are we about to see, somewhere down the line, the two fighters entertain us with a catch-weight contest?
