Tony Bellew Gets Surgery On His Hand Following Haye Fight

Liverpool boxer Tony Bellew gets surgery on his hand following David Haye fight where he caused a massive upset and beat the Londoner.

Many after the fight knew that David Haye suffered a significant injury to his Achilles, which was clearly visible from round 6 onwards.

Essentially Haye boxed on one leg until round 11 before Bellew closed the show and Haye’s trainer Shane McGuigan was forced to throw in the towel.

A broken hand no less. He boxed through the pain ultimately to pull off one of the biggest upsets of the modern boxing era in British boxing.
