Former WBA heavyweight champion David Haye (29-3, 26 KOs) will be trying to bounce back from a defeat to Tony Bellew when he returns to the ring in December against an opponent still to be determined.
Haye’s surgically repaired Achilles is healed, and he’s now a new man. Haye is ready to make things happen in the ring once again. His loss to Bellew was one that was injury related.
Haye, 36, won’t be fighting a rematch with Bellew in December, and it remains to be seen if the two fighters will face each other in a rematch. Bellew is interested in fighting WBO heavyweight champion Joseph Parker. Bellew also has the option to face pound for pound King Andre Ward.
Haye who will be turning 37 in October will need to get his career in order and start fighting on a more frequent basis.Before his defeat to Bellew, he hadn’t fought in 10 months.
A rematch with Bellew would be the best bet for Haye if the fight can get made.
Haye injured in his right Achilles tendon in his loss to Bellew on March 4. Haye has had surgery to fix the problem, and he’s been rehabbing slowly to get back in fighting condition. Haye was stopped by the 34-year-old Bellew in the 11th round after he slipped and fell out of the ring. Haye’s trainer stopped the fight while he was trying to climb back into the ring.
“I will be back in the ring in December, who that will be against, I don’t know,” Haye said to skysports.com.
