Rematch Set
The rematch between Tony Bellew and David Haye has been set forMay 5th. The location is likely to remain the same. The fight is considered to be a big fight in the UK.
Bellew upset Haye with an 11th-round stoppage back in March, a second bout was set to take place onDecember 17thuntil Haye sustained a bicep injury which required surgery.
