There have been contrasting reports about this, but Haye seems fine.

David Haye could pull out of Saturday’s heavyweight fight against Tony Bellew after he “picked up a training injury”, according to a report.

The Sun are claiming that the British boxer flew to Germany to have an injury checked by Dr Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt, a renowned doctor who has worked with Bayern Munich, the German football team and Usain Bolt.

However, boxing fans shouldn’t be too worried.

The British boxer seems fine, and the Mirror are reporting that, despite an “injury scare”, Haye will take to the ring against Bellew in London this weekend.

Haye did post a photo with the German doctor, but this isn’t the look of a man who is about to pull out of a massive fight against a bitter rival.

Haye is said to have went to Munich with a friend on Tuesday, and is due back on Wednesday afternoon.
