Earlier, the boxer born in 1980 retired in 2018, after consecutive losses against Tony Bellew. At the same time, a series of injuries that he suffered throughout his career were also the main reason.
On August 12, David Haye announced that he would put aside his management career to return to the stage. His rival is Joe Fournier, a 38 -year -old martial artist who is a very successful businessman.
Both are good friends in real life. Joe Fournier in 2016 also played under the management of David Hayemaker Promotions. However, the upcoming match will not be a friendly event.
The 38 -year -old tycoon is unbeaten in his 10 official matches. He also took a break 5 years before returning in April 2021. At that time, Fournier defeated Reykon, an active person in the field of music before being invited to play thanks to YouTube clips.
This is not the first time David Haye wants to return after retirement. Earlier, he wanted to organize a match in the nightclub with another opponent. Haye even practiced continuously with coach BJ Flores at that time.
