HAYE FIGHT FEAR

DAVID HAYE is ready to pull the plug on his revenge mission against Tony Bellew.

The former heavyweight world champion was beaten by Bellew six months ago after he ruptured his Achilles.

Haye (right) plans to return to the ring in December but admitted rematch negotiations have ground to a halt. He said: “If it’s supposed to happen it will but I wouldn’t put money on it.” Haye believes he can reclaim the heavyweight crown and wants a summer showdown with champion Anthony Joshua, adding: “Next year, in an ideal world, I’ll fight him.”
